Strength Comparisons

It is official, the Ottoman Empire has the largest military force in Europe-again.

July, 1808
Glory Standings

There has been a slight increase in the Ottoman lead over Great Britain. Hopefully, this trend will continue for some years.

Constantinople is going through a little expansion on its docks complex. There is much trade that goes through that province. With level 7 docks there should be a big increase in income from trade activity there. We will find out. There are a few years of work to reach that level, so it'll be a while.

Culture Standings

Spain has fallen a bit more in culture due to its loss of cities. The Ottoman Empire has increased due to same-and a bit of plundering.

Battle reports

France has won a great victory at Provence. This will cause a huge drop in Spanish moral.

Spain also has the levee in mass doctrine. It should have some rather large reserves. However, with the losses it has been taking in the sieges and now this great battle its reserves should be dropping rapidly.

Siege reports

Venice has fallen! It has long been a dream of the Sultan to have Venice in the Empire. For the first time in over 1700 years it will now be part of the true Empire...

As mentioned earlier, the divisions that Spain has lost in Venice were powerful units. The Spanish King no doubt regrets positioning them there.

Battle History

This is perhaps my favorite page in the Great Book of Battles. At the top of the Page is a decisive victory by ottoman forces and at the bottom is another decisive victory by our good ally, France. It make me want to have a glass of wine and admire the heavens-and other great works of God...

Spain's Moral

Spain's moral must be below 500 at this point. Future battles will be even easier to win with this advantage.

I can now free up one diplomat for use in another capacity rather than propaganda.

Treaty Report

Austria is really in bad shape. It cannot afford to pay its reparations.

In view of the current deployments of Ottoman fores far from home, the dependability of depot sharing cannot be left to chance. For some reason those treaties expire-without notice. To avoid any discomfort for the troops the treaty with France has been renewed even though the older one is still in force.

Moral Comparisons

Spanish moral has indeed plummeted. French moral has rocketed back to 1000-the first time in many years it has been at that level.

Austria is still far below zero, but is making steady progress.

Training

Wheel training has been added to Ottoman training doctrines.
Ottoman parity with the major European states has become a reality-next goal; supremacy.

As the Sultan pointed out over 15 years ago, it will not be easy, but it is not an impossibility to achieve supremacy on the battlefield.

East Prussia

The Prussian Army has finally showed up to face the Russians. I suspect the Russians are in for a serious whipping.

North Italy

The Ottoman 1st Army has been ordered to speed march to Provence-and charge the walls. There is some doubt that it will even reach the province as there are mountains that need to be crossed-however, they will do their best. With the Sultan in the vanguard, it should do fairly well.

This is a 4 province march, if it can be done, the Spanish King will be rather surprised by its appearance.

Glory Standings



The Empire has widened its lead on Great Britain. The difference is not much, but taken over time it can add up.

Another 2 barracks have been added as well as another level 5 court-ah, how do you spell relief? C o u r t s .

Battle Reports

It was somewhat of a surprise in reaching Provence-even to the Sultan. There was good weather all along the march. The Army even arrived soon enough to be able to assist the French in capturing the citadel. It has actually fallen into Ottoman hands rather than France's. Small matter-it will belong to France when this war is over.

1st Army Org

After the siege in Marseilles the 1st Army was brought back up to full strength-there is no shortage of replacement. I think this is about as large an army should become unless the 7 division corps can be attained. It is fit and large enough to fight any enemy now. It will soon be put to the test.

South France

The first Army will continue with its speed march-straight across southern France to the Bay of Biscay.

There are large Spanish forces in the area-it is hoped that a battle can be had. With the recent training, it is felt that the Ottoman Army has an upper hand in a contest with Spain.

Sweden

The 100,000 strong Swedish Army is staying close to home. That is most likely the best course of action. Its best defense seems to be that it is so far away-that is, from the center of civilization.

Strength Comparison


Ottoman strength is continuing a rapid increase-even in the face of mass speed marches and siege losses.

France has taken a drop due to the great battle in which it defeated Spain. Spain is plummeting.

The main Austrian army has pulled itself back together again. There are many other divisions outside of this force that are about 1/3 strength.

Glory Standings


All Europe is still alarmed at Spain-[;)][;)], but not for much longer.
Ottoman glory is still slightly out pacing great Britain. Hopefully, this situation between Great Britain and the Ottoman Empire can be settled in the construction yards were new art and culture centers are being built-and not the battlefield.

Otto Glory Changes

Mixed in with the normal adjustments is the 52 increase for a victory. This has given the Ottoman Empire a very good lead over Great Britain.

BTW, 52 points in glory and experience is the best that Ottoman arms have accomplished to date.

Battle Reports

The battle of Gascony was a decisive victory for the Ottoman 1st Army. It was still speed marching from Marseilles so there was some concern that the divisions would be too tired to fight well-they fought very well.

Even though Spain has the levee in mass doctrine it must be running short of replacements after losing two large battles.

It looks like Caligari has also fallen to France-more moral losses for Spain.

Spain is taking a beating almost from every quarter. The longer King iron Warrior fights-the worst it will be for Spain.

Siege Reports

There was not much time left to capture the city of Bordeaux after the great battle. It is not really an objective of the Ottoman forces to liberate French cities-it is to defeat the Spanish Army wherever it is found.

Milan has finally fallen which will release the Egyptian Army for duty elsewhere. It will initially be sent to central Italy.

Moral Comparisons

Spain's moral has plummeted into the negative numbers-lower than Austria's. I was expecting an offer of surrender, but no-only tricks.

Spanish moral is about negative 250 at this time.
