I really like it that when Romania enters the fray, their corps are positioned historically correct, which means: part in the Carpathians (sp), part in the Dobrogea (sp, but: the part south of Constanta). What I can't figure out though (because I almost always play as the CP; the 2 times I didn't Romania didn't enter): is it 80% Carpathians, 20% Dobrogea (roughly 9 corps vs. 3 corps) like in the original Hypothesis Z? It's a real pity France and GB AI doesn't seem to notice the importance of Salonika (well, in a way that's historically, too

) Grreat game!

I don't think it's quite that biased - from memory 4 or 5 corps rmain around Sophia - too many for Bulgaria to attack on her own.

I haven't read it in detail, but there appears to be a fair bit of info on hte Romanian plans at http://gmr.mapn.ro/Engleza/Ultimul_nr/Ciobanu-p.179-184.pdf

The AI will certainly invade Salonika at least sometimes - I've seen up to half-a-dozen british Corps there.

Glenn Torrey's "Romania and World War I: A Collection of Studies" is the holy grail for me ( when it comes to information on Romania during WWI, that is), difficult to get though.
Funny how the ai seems to respond different between the varying computers, in my case maybe 20% of the times I play, Brits invasion from Salonika happens.
