He had PM'd me telling me he would move on Galacia. If he hadn't, it would be much easier to take the rest of his empire. Meant in the joking manner. If KB would like this removed, please do so.
I'm actually the ass in the situation

We had had Russia tied down, at least we could have dealt it the fatal wound before backstabbing.  |

Perhaps Caltex is simply scared of the very shadow of ANY expansion.

I'm not sure that backstabbing this early in the game will pay off in the long run. You didn't really get that much out of it and you're now in a much weaker position vs Russia and you now have no hope of ever being trusted for the rest of the game. I think Inde has effectively destroyed his chances of winning.

I don't consider myself a pro in this game, but I would disagree. Indy's decision to stab Austria was sound. He mortally wounded Austria and it was either him or Kaz. Either Slarti was going to make a deal with Turkey or Austria. Turkey took the deal and thereby saved his own ass and got a new supply center. I think Indy could make a very plausible case as to why he had to attack Austria. Not just for strategic reasons but on issues of broken deals between them. I leave that to Indy to flush the rest of that out.
I'm not trying to help Indy out here or anything, but I just objectively disagree with Drake's analysis here.

Well it seems that Drake generally has the last word here. Did he say you are the UK?
