The Britsh Empire is no longer a faction, the ANZACS are still a separate faction though.

[Prince Cobra]

Declaration of His Majesty Ferdinand Saxe-Coburg Gotta, tsar of Bulgaria and the Bulgarian government of Vasil Radoslavov

Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 

We would like to express our great satisfaction that the government of His Majesty, the Kaiser of Germany Wilhelm II showed his serious intentions to the Bulgarian government and gave us a loan of 40 million Bulgarian Golden levs.

We would like to express our great satisfaction that His Majesty the King of Great Britain George V and the Government of Great Britain also showed his serious intentions to the Bulgarian government and gave us a loan of 40 million Bulgarian Golden levs in the same generous terms as the Kaiser.

The both loans are in generous terms for Bulgaria - large paying period of 70 years, low interest. In response Bulgaria pawns the coal mine in Pernik ( half of it for Germany, the other half for the loan with Great Britain). We would like to mention that when the time comes the Bulgarians will not forget this sevice. After giving us such a generous guarantee for their serious intentions, we accept the money and we declare that would carefully reflect on accepting their proposal for larger loans and the responsibility connected with them.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

By the way Bulgarian army after the current mobilisation is 100 -150 000 ( I doubled the regular army; Bulgaria is ready to increase its number if needed; max. number 850 000;) The Bulgarian population at 1915 is about 5 000 000 people.

Bulgaria is the first country to use planes in a battle (the battle of Adrianople in the Balkan wars).

Serbia

Serbian Army
At the start of the war the Serbian Army was 200 000 strong, under command of Marshal Radomir Putnik. After some disastorous losses it tried to rebuild its strenght, but a typhus edpidemic killed off many civilians, and as such they could only bring the strength up to about 225 000. The Army was poorly equiped and undersupplied, relying heavily on its allies to provide the manpower and equipment.
Note though that the Army was very veteran, having had 2 Balkan Wars in the past decade.

Population
The population was around 4.5 million people. During the war they lost approximately 28% of its total population and 58% of its male population. The largest city was Belgrade with about 100 000 people.

Economy

All I could find was that it was overwhelmingly Agrarian, so I suppose a weak economy with very little manufacturing.

Diplomacy

Serbia very much followed the Russians in terms of Diplomacy, as this was their greatest ally. Ultimately the Serbians are not a very large nation, and instead rely on combining with the other Balkan nations in order to fight off opposing nations. Other nations owuld try to pressure Serbia into what they wanted, and this was where Russia would direct Serbian policy.
The Serbians stood by the side of the Entente, however were never amajor contributor to it, except in its own theatre, and the Macedonia theatre.


Is that enough?

[Warluster]

Need More Players!

[Warluster]

Sorry i havent bee posting but I have just been doing stuff on it, plus making the chapters, I have not been exactly organised lately, The Chapter should come next week, I'm sorry I havent been doing reports I have just been having a break.

[Warluster]

Massive bombings over Germany, Estimated 100,00 dead, the bombers were unidentified, it was expected France, that is the Guess of the German Citizens, also said were "I hope the Kaiser does something!"

[Warluster]

Massive invasions into Africa by the ANZACS, also with Indian troops, nothing stands in there way until the Ottoman Empire, they beat them back soundly and reach Jerusalam, ANZAC,British,Norweigan,Danish forces attack Turkey, unfortunly they are stopped on the beach heads. British forces attack Southern Italy, they cut inwards and control much, Canadian forces replace the Danish Vetran forces that left the Front line at Germany,

[Csargo]

I don't think I have enough time for this. I'm gonna have to pull out. Sorry about this.

[Warluster]

Well, see ya! GERMANY UP FOR GRABS!

[Warluster]

We will miss you Csar, you were are longest serving Player. Why are you leaving?

[CountArach]

Bye Csar!

[Prince Cobra]

Csar, I am really sorry you are leaving. Bye, Csar. And yet there is a little hope you will come back .

[Marshal Murat]

Who is Austria? They could take over.

[Warluster]

Austria is currently Ignoramus, and I dont thnk he wants to gove up his positin.

[Patriarch of Constantinople]

Im pulling out too. I just dont like the recent things that have happened.

[Marshal Murat]

Wow, and to think if this happened in real life, the war would be over sooner, and it would've been less costly.

[Hepcat]

I can't help getting the feeling that this is extremely biased against the Central Powers.

1) Why is it that our troops haven't advanced, Germany hasn't gotten anywhere in Belgium or Austria-Hungary in Serbia or Italy in France.

2) How is it that the Allies can advance hundreds of kilometres on all fronts without seeming to run into any oposition, eg. How did I lose Southern Italy if my troops haven't left yet and how did Germany lose so much territory in the East and how come Denmark is at war with them, and what about the amphibious invasion of the North of Germany, isn't the German Navy stationed there?

3) How is it that Germany lose 10,000 in an air raid when it is only 1915 and aircraft are barely more than flying lawn mowers mostly used for reconnassance rather than any agressive action.

I just want to know why it seems no matter what desicions we make it doesn't have any effect.

[Marshal Murat]

Trench Warfare across France and Belguim, Denmark. I have NO idea how these bombers could kill 10,000 people.
I struck southern Italy, which isn't really that fortified, and The Ottomans are repeling my assaults in Turkey. If anything, the Italians have the advantage.

[Warluster]

OOC-

Allies- Have a small foothold in Germany, are currently being slaugheted over there! Are barly intol Italy, not even 1000 men yet! The Central Powers dont care about holdings in Africa so they were lost nearly straght away! Serbia is currently strugling against Austrian Empire, and Russia has been beaten back in Germany!

Central Powers-Italy can beat back the small Allied invasion easily, Greece is basiclly untouched (Except for Crete!) Turkey has stopped an MASSIVE allied invasion into Turkey, Austria is basiclly at Serbias Capital (NEARLY) , Germany has stopped the Allies at Belgium,North Germany and East Germany, killing thousands!

[Warluster]

OOC- I am not on anyones side, but if you look at odds,then you will see!

Allies- Britain and its Empire,Russia,ANZACS,France,Belgium,United Scandinanians, Spain, Ireland,

Central Powers-germany,Austria,Italy,Greece,Turkey, Maybe a bit of Diplomacy is needed rather than war? Just a suggestion,

[Motep]

The French Army Air Service (Aéronautique Militaire) was formed in October 1910. France led the world in early aircraft design and by mid-1912 they had five squadrons (escadrilles). This had grown to 132 machines (21 escadrilles) by 1914.

Expenditure on the French Navy doubled between 1910 and 1914. By the summer of 1914 France had 19 battleships, 32 cruisers, 86 destroyers, 34 submarines and 115 torpedo boats. The French government had ordered another 14 battleships but they were still waiting for them to be delivered.

In January 1914 the French Army had 47 divisions (777,000 French and 46,000 colonial troops) in 21 regional corps, with attached cavalry and field-artillery units. Most these troops were deployed inside France with the bulk along the eastern frontier as part of Plan 17. With the fear of war with Germany a further 2.9 million men were mobilized during the summer of 1914.


Annnnd no population was given.


The structure and balance of the French Army changed during the war. By 1918 about 40% of all French troops on the Western Front were artillerymen. Increasing use of machine-guns, armoured cars and tanks also reduced the numbers in the infantry. The growing importance of the French Army Air Service also had an impact and whereas there were 1,5 million in the French infantry in June 1915, this dropped to 850,000 in 1918.

By the end of the First World War, a total of 8,317,000 men, including 475,000 colonial troops, had been called up to fight in the French Army. France suffered 4.2 million casualties, including 1.3 million dead.

Allies- Britain and its Empire,Russia,ANZACS,France,Belgium,United Scandinanians, Spain, Ireland,

Central Powers-germany,Austria,Italy,Greece,Turkey, Maybe a bit of Diplomacy is needed rather than war? Just a suggestion,

Since when was Scandinavia and Spain at war with the Centrals? I don't remember their declarations of war. During WWI Germany traded with Norway and Sweden, so how can it be that they are now at war, Denmark, Norway and Sweden were neutral. And Spain was neutral the entire time too. Ireland was a British colony and lets not forget the Easter Uprising in 1916, I would hardly say the Irish were all for the British.

As for your post before that.
You didn't imply that they Allied invasion of Italy was small.

British forces attack Southern Italy, they cut inwards and control much

That doesn't sound like only 1000 men to me. How much is much exactly? I got the impression that they were half way to Rome already.

[Warluster]

Norway,Sweden and denmark joined the war a while ago in an alliance with the British, I should have mentioned it somewhere else, as for Spain, they are not part of the allies, but Portugaul is. Everyone stay on track, next chapter is coming out, no more decisions please, every one stay united!

[Patriarch of Constantinople]

6.British Empire-
ANZACS-Warluster

I thought Australia and New Zealand were part of the British Empire. If not, then Canada should be a separate nation.

Massive bombings over Germany, Estimated 100,00 dead

WW1 planes were inferior and didn't have the capibility to cause this many casualties.

Massive invasions into Africa by the ANZACS, also with Indian troops, nothing stands in there way until the Ottoman Empire, they beat them back soundly and reach Jerusalam, ANZAC,British,Norweigan,Danish forces attack Turkey, unfortunly they are stopped on the beach heads. British forces attack Southern Italy, they cut inwards and control much, Canadian forces replace the Danish Vetran forces that left the Front line at Germany,

And when would you bother to tell us Denmark or Scandinavia was in the Allies? If Hepcat's Italian forces were never moved, how did the British cut so deep? And how did they cut through Africa and the Ottoman Empire?

And also, Austria-Hungary was already at the capital of Serbia by the start of the war. In fact, some of the first shots was artillery into Belgrade.

[Marshal Murat]

The Scandanavian Nations were placed on my side after the French were lead astray.
Page 5, after the Battle of Brussels.

Bombings never caused that many casualties in one strike.

Africa has a couple German colonies, and they were eliminated very quickly, unless the Germans had decided to recruit soldiers, which they didn't.
The Allied forces in Syria/Lebanon/Palestine, those are a lot of troops.

It was my understanding that the Italian army was in Northern Italy. If its spread out across Italy, okay. You can rally and attack us. Good Luck.

I don't know about the Serbian front.

[Csargo]

Alright I'll join back up if Warluster will let me. :O

[Warluster]

Yeah, you can join again, now everyone, the game is starting up again tomorrow, I was waiting for STephen Asen.

[Motep]
