What about Britain? How good are they? Like Morocco,they have the advantage of being completely surrounded by water and no other country. The only other country that could pose a threat is France,but you could remedy that by allying with them or conquering him. Also,Britain can attack Iceland for Fish and Oil,and Belgium for other resources.

6. it is a girl!!
How do you know if it is a girl? (scratches head)

So I am playing a lot of rounds in this game,and I would like to know whether attacking weak countries for the resources is worth it.
Btw,in the 10 player map,which nation should you attack first as the Ottoman Empire?
-
This is assuming the alliances are France-Britain and Germany-Austria,of course
-
I have not played France before,but I have played Germany and Britain. I personally prefer Austria-Hungary due to the fact that (assuming Germany is it's ally) Austria-Hungary has no major enemy next to it. Besides,there is Italy,which you can attack as Austria-Hungary to gain more resources and also to attack France via Italy
-
I think it is because the Central Powers have to fight on two,no,three fronts. The Western Front (against France and Britain),the Italian front (against Italy and maybe some french troops),and the Russian Front (against RUssia,the most powerful Entente member). Also,the Entente members,especially France and Russia,seem to have more provinces and therefore more resources.

Yeah,in one of my games I am playing as Morocco.

Hello.I would like to find out all of your opinions on what is the best country to play as,in the 10 player map.Of course,for different players it will be different.
My opinion on the best countries are,Sweden and Ottoman Empire. Let me explain
Sweden has an AI neighbour,Denmark (Including finland,which is part of Denmark in the map) which can provide resources for Sweden. It is unlikely that Germany is gonna attack DEnmark,and you can deprive Russia of the wood that they lack and might seek to get in northern Finland. Furthermore,Sweden is not at immediate danger of being attacked by another major country so there.
As for Ottoman Empire,well,AI Neighbours with resources. Lots of them. Im sure you know what im talking about. Also,like Sweden,they do not really border another major power,except that they may get attacked from across the black sea by Russia,or that your expansion may make you border another major power.

Right,got it

Now that i have looked at the map,something dawned in me. Everytime I play the historical map,always its the Entente that wins. I have played the historical map several times but I will recount one specific instance where the Entente won.I was Russia. Italy convinced me to invade Lemberg to deny Austria-Hungary the oil produced by the province.I fought the Austro-Hungarians,and then I invaded Germany too. I took the three easternmost provinces of Germany and two or three of Austria-Hungary,before Germany struck with his whole army.Yes,his Whole ARMY. France had massed troops on Nancy and just went inactive,not attacking Germany. As i was being steamrolled by Germany and Austria,Italy was killing Austria and was marching on to Germany(Side note:Britain was useless at that time;they attacked only when they finally got arty). So as Italy was going to capture Berlin,Germany switched capitals to Riga or Minsk,I dont remember,the game was like years ago. Still,in the end the Entente won. Of course, I was left with only 2-3 revolting provinces. Italy was the number one winner,with Britain being second. they both got Goldmarks,but unfortunately I got nothing.
-
I also remember reading the newspaper and someone from the entente had published that the Entente will win
-
No,actually i wasnt playing as any country.I was just spectating the map
-
Oh btw,I have already played Germany and Britain,in my first and second plays in this map,respectively. On my third and current play of this map,I am playing as Austria-Hungary,which has lots of wheat and construction materials.
-
So I have been wondering,which country is the best for the map? Things to consider like,which country has the best balance of resources,best geographical position,most oil and wheat and generally best suited for the map (which will inevitably end quickly,considering that the amount of playable nations is only 4)
-
So,if,for example,I have an extremely diverse army all with Infantry,Armoured Cars,Cavalry,Tanks,Heavy Tanks,etc,then my army will be more powerful than if i put one or two type/s of units?
-
SO I have been wondering how effective Armoured cars really are,aside from snatching undefended provinces. Are they of any use when you pack them in with infantry? Do they soak up damage that would usually be done to infantry?
-
Hey,I think I spectated that map just yesterday
