11 Oct 21 UTC Spring, 1901: Hello
11 Oct 21 UTC Spring, 1901: hi
11 Oct 21 UTC Autumn, 1901: Oh shit I wanted to go to Armenia, not Ankara. Sometimes I feel like this software takes the wrong choice.
11 Oct 21 UTC Autumn, 1901: Always doubble check your orders.
11 Oct 21 UTC Spring, 1902: Always
11 Oct 21 UTC Autumn, 1903: Are you a beginner?
11 Oct 21 UTC Autumn, 1903: Not so much, it's just that my main focus is on other things rn
11 Oct 21 UTC Autumn, 1903: Just some tips for this map (and also in general).

This is a 1v1 map where you need 18 centers to win, which is half of the centers in the map. So you have to think about where the centers will be that will get you over the mark: somewhere in the middle: Munich, Berlin, Rome, Tunis. Therefore in the beginning you have to go to there as quickly as possible. Leaving your army in Holland was bad in two ways: You didn't get closer to the center and you took a center that you can easily take later just on the way.

A second big mistake you made is mismanaging the ratio between fleets and armies. You should have built a few more fleets in the beginning, so one of them can go south, to Spain and later Tunis (I won that race now). Only build armies if you can convoy them to the continent the same year. As England on this map, you'll have a fleet that constantly stays in North sea and convoys an army every single turn for years. Maybe a second stationary fleet in the chanell or Norwegian sea.

Now I'm rather confident I'll win because I won the race to Tunis by a mile and can keep you out of the Mediterranean. Also I can block you from Munich, which traditionally on this map England reaches before Turkey.

Munich, Berlin, Tunis and Rome are the deciding centers in most games of this variant.
11 Oct 21 UTC Spring, 1904: That was very cash money of you
11 Oct 21 UTC Alright, that's a victory. If you want I can play another one, but not live like now.
11 Oct 21 UTC well gg, I won't forget your advice any time soon, thanks for play
11 Oct 21 UTC probably can't play another one, but I would encourage you to join a game called quicky-4 it's a great lakes map
11 Oct 21 UTC Alright, I joined that. I never have played in the great lakes map before.
11 Oct 21 UTC Me neither, I think it'll be exciting
