End of March 1805
It's been a fun time through the first 12 turns. RGD cards (Seize horses, develop territory, Draft, Requisition, Runner, Export Goods) and building replacements. Never ending replacements. It takes a lot of replacements to fill out the Grand Armee. I think I should consider myself lucky that it's only taken 3 months. I finally have replacements lasting beyond a turn without getting drained.
My biggest production limitation is war supplies. France really doesn't produce that much. Prussia has almost as much production as France. And since we can't build arsenals, what's the next best thing. Taking them from others. But that wouldn't be nice, unless we are justified in doing so. The beauty of cassus belli. It's not my fault.
We've started the expansionist, err, umm, justified defensive measures with Oldenburg. France can annex them in a few years, but taking them now provides 3 cities with 3 arsenals. Gotta love that. Also, those Oldernburgers won't allow me supply access. Again, not my fault. So, it's a stepping stone towards Hannover and another large city with an arsenal. And Hannoverians declared war on me without provocation. That wasn't nice. No, not nice at all. Not my fault.
So, a corp will take Oldenburg and Hannover, with the Grand Armee in striking distance if someone, horribly evil, wearing bright red coats would decide to interfere with my peaceful operations here.
