Caltex, you make a very callous mistake, which WEB would point out to you but I hope he doesn't.
I will not point it out to you, silly German. I can't believe someone in such a position of power would be so careless.

FL, your acting like a little kid
However, I actually DID submit my moves, and early. I doubt I'll be on tonight, that's all
A lot of the time people don't submit until an hour or so before hand.

I have revealed nothing of my nations plans. That analysis simply shows the needed amount of Armies needed to take Austrian lands. The numbers suggest that Turkey and Russia will have to fully devote themselves to it, to take the lands.

Caltex, in order for one unit to support another unit, it has to be capable of moving into that space. So a fleet in Tri can't support an army in Bud. If Russia and Turkey are working together, then it is only a short matter of time until Austria is consumed. There isn't much anyone could do to prevent them from taking Budapest if they wanted it. I guess the only way would be if the fleet in Tri moved to the Adriatic and Italy's army in Ven moved into Tri, then in the following fall move Italy could take Tri and support Austria while Austria's fleet would take Ven. That is the only way.

Ah, thanks for clearing that up. I forgot that it was a fleet in Tieste, was thinking of an Army. If it was an Army my analysis would be right.

No matter, really doesn't affect my game plan at all.

It still takes 3 Armies to take down the other provinces, and will require Turkey expose itself to Italy.

Wow, that's some serious Russian-Turkish alliance there. Look at the trust.

Question about support. Have a look at how the Turkish Army in Serbia simultaneously gave support to Greece and received support from Bulgaria.

Does a unit giving support mean that support received by that unit is invalidated?

I just try to keep things fair. I don't point out mistakes even when I see them. I only point out what is blatantly obvious.
