Well, that's an eventful end to the first turn and no mistake.

I have a question - although it is not mentioned in the rules, could someone use PI to build improvements in an ally's territory? (Technically, as province transferrence is instantaneous if it is empty of armies, this can be done already in a loopeholeish kind of way).

Yes, but that still consumes the 'PI' that can be built in the province during the turn v; (same goes for Fleet usage for troop transportation)

I believe he means 'fleet in East Med picks up army, moves to Sicily/Tyrr. Sea via Ionian; deposits army' and similar for the Atlantic movements.
EDIT - ignore that; clarification has been added.

A letter was sent to all nobility of Spain, "Dear our Spanish brethren as we gazes out from our mighty fleet we must inform you of our thoughts of villa for our officers and men which we will establish when we come visit" with ending there.


Build Academy on 2# and 4#, Airfield on 83#.

Rattle our sabres and declare war on Spaniards and offer a military Alliance with thee Germans.

Ferry 1 unit from 84# to attack 65# and have ship attack spanish fleet, and ferry 1 unit from 83# via Ionian Sea to attack 79#.

Ferry 1 unit of hairy Scottish from 3# to 72#, ferry 1 unit from 4# to 76# and have ship attack spanish fleet. and ferry 1 unit from 5# to 75#.
...Why us and not France?! XD

And...I don't think you can both transport and engage a naval battle o_O Because all would be rolled by the GM's post, it doesn't seem conclusive that way?

Y'all know that neutral waters, + SUDDEN WAR = 'all enemy fleets upon declaration of war = battle' right? :P
That means that other than the naval battle by Italy, there's also going to be one at the (English) Channel.

In which Spain is saved by France o-o
* Spain is now France's forever-ally from meanie British peoples without even a hint of a nudge, unlike what Spain did.
Curiously this message has more to it than what was stated before the period.

Who would count as the attacking fleet in this case? Mine, as I'm declaring war, or Britain's, since it's their turn?

This game is forcing me to ponder philosophical questions of game mechanics :vc

I would say yours, as you're declaring war on the British ;v

flazeo25 your orders are still invalid; you have no fleets in Tyrrhenian that could allow you to attack #65 ;v

I have two fleets in East Med, and one being sent via Ionian Sea to get there so should be fine.

Please clarify your orders.

You're still not moving any Fleets around.

Plus you need a total of 3 Fleets (1 in East Med, 1 in Ionian and 1 in Tyrrhenian) to perform an attack at #65, now that I looked at the map again.

And Fleet vs Fleet battle comes first; only after that you can hop troops around (if your Fleet was victorious and is still afloat, that's it).
