● Enver is retired from command of the III Army HQ, and serves only at
the Ottoman GHQ (with his counter as a General).
Young Turks
Enver cannot be dismissed, except by an event (Dismissal
or Politics).
The Turkish Railroads
Beginning in 1916, rail transport capacity begins decreasing by 1.
Turkey:
1914-1915 (6)
1916 (5)
1917 (4)
1918+ (3)
The capacity to Armenia and in the Arab zone is limited (See below).
The Eastern Railroads
The railroads in Arabia are archaic.
Their capacity is low: 3 between Damascus and Aleppo, 2 towards Jaffa
and Jerusalem, 1 in the Hedjaz, 1 to Mosul (then 1 disconnected section
toward Baghdad).
Sea Transport Capacity
Turkey has a naval transport capacity of 2 units in the Black Sea, or 1 unit
(half) when attempting an amphibious invasion.
Each military unit (corps, support) counts as 1 unit; a HQ is 0.
Egypt
Turkey cannot have more than 1 Army operating in Egypt because of the
difficulty of resupplying by rail. Only Nur-Ud-Din’s IV Turkish Army is
allowed.
Mesopotamia
Turkey cannot have more than 1 Army operating in Mesopotamia because
of the difficulty of resupplying by rail. It is the Turkish V Army.
Amphibious Invasion in Russia
Turkey may carry out an amphibious invasion in southern Russia with the
Turkish II Army (capacity: 1 unit per turn).
In this case only, the II Army is authorized to fight on the Russian Front,
and with the condition that it always stays at a distance of 1 region from the
coast.
Persian Expeditionary Corps
If the Persian has a diplomatic result of 22+, Turkey receives a military force
of 3 Persian corps: (1) 3 1 -4-3 [V] and (2) cav 2-2-6 [V].
This expeditionary corps is to be integrated then into a Turkish Army.
It receives 2 Persian RP per turn, non-cumulative from one turn to the other
(RP not used are lost at the end of the turn).
An eliminated Persian unit is permanently destroyed.
Turkey also receives 5 EP each Interphase.
Turkish Artillery
Turkey may construct the missing Turkish artillery. Once in the game, they
are placed directly on a Turkish HQ (or in the GHQ).
Turkish Mines
Only mines in the Sea of Marmara have an effect inside the Turkish straits.
Turkish mines in the Sea of Marmara have an effect limited to 1 region
outside the Turkish straits.
Political Action, Revenue and Shells
Turkey carries out only 1 Political Action per Interphase.
Turkey has no Civil Production. It produces 2 MUN per Interphase.
26.8 USA
NB: All the dates below are given here in relation to Mar-April 17 (historic
entry into war). If the United States enters the war much before or after this
date, then shift the Interphases accordingly (in relation to Summer 17).
Diplomatic Level
The Diplomatic US Level begins at level 23 then decreases as the actions
of the players and the war go along.
● The United States is Isolationist as long as its level is above 13.
● It becomes pro-Entente when level 13 is reached.
Once this level is reached, it may never go above 13 again. This is the new
maximum.
When the level reaches -5, the United States declares war on the Central
Powers.
American Tension
The entry level of the United States drops by 1 square at the beginning of
each Interphase (before Britain, if both are at peace).
The entry level drops by 1 square per turn when the US becomes
pro-Entente (or -2 if Russia is no longer in regime A) at the start of the
Diplomatic Phase.
The diplomatic level of the United States is modified by actions taken
during the war, events, the American elections of 1916, and other special
rules.
Isolationist United States
The United States is initially Isolationist, from level 23 (initial) to level 14.
