Nonetheless, in the event of a failure, the transfer promise continues to effect future Diplomatic Actions. ● Beware: the simple promise of transfer has internal effects on Austria-Hungary, aggravated if the transfer actually takes place ● French Promises: if Austria-Hungary promises to cede Trentin to Italy, France may overbid and promise to cede Tunisia. France suffers no negative effects for such a promise, nor for ceding Tunisia (if then Italy comes to the side of Entente). France only loses Tunisia’s revenue. ● Turkish Diplomacy: Turkish AMB are inoperable and are worth nothing in Italy (no matter to which side they belong). ***If a side declares war to Italy, the Italian Parliament becomes immediately Sacred Union. Turkey ● Starts at Level 6 ● Pro-Central Powers (initially) Modifiers to Status changes: +/-1 if Italy or Greece is in the war on the side of: +1 Entente/-1 Central Powers (+/-2 for both) +/-1 if Bulgaria or Persia is in the war on the side of: +1 Entente/-1 Central Powers +/-1 if Great Britain delivers its battleships (BB Reshadieh) to Turkey (-1 yes, +1 no) **1914 +/-1 if an Italian AMB is present (negative modifier for Italian side): +1 Entente/-1 Central Powers -2 if Vienna or Budapest is occupied by Russia +/-1 successful Grand Offensive on the Eastern Front, +1 Central Powers/-1 Entente, the most recent (1915+) +/-1 per conquered capital in the Balkans, +1 Central Powers/-1 Entente (Belgrade, Sofia, Bucharest, Athens) +2 if Paris or Kiew is occupied by Central Powers +1 if the differential between “objective” cities of Central Powers – Entente is ≥ 3 (the same -1 in reverse for Entente) (only major power Objective cities, with a star in the middle) +1 if there is a Muslim revolt in North Africa (Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco) +1 if 20 EP given by Germany in August 14 **1914 - No effect if Italy declares war on Entente. +1 if Germany has ceded BC Goeben to Turkey ** 1914 – No effect if Italy declares war on Entente. ● the ** bonus are only valid in 1914. Diplomatic Level (result): from -4 to 10 -4 Turkey declares war on Central Powers. Italy, Greece and Bulgaria immediately move 2 levels up towards Central Powers, Romania 1 level. -3 0 same result as 1-2. Turkey becomes “pro-Entente”, remaining passive diplomatically (no AMB available). 1–2 Turkey becomes “Neutral”. It authorizes 10 EP of trade to Russia through the straits each Interphase (no access to warships). 3–6 same result as 1–2. Turkey is pro-Central Powers. The straits are closed to Entente. Turkish Diplomacy is activated: 1 Turkish AMB is available for Central Powers each Interphase, except if Italy is at war on the side of Central Powers. It is no longer pro-Central Powers if Italy declares war on Entente. 7–9 same result as 3–6. Turkey opens the straits to Central Powers. They may enter Turkish ports and carry out naval missions in the Black Sea (only). 10+ Turkey declares war on Entente. Italy, Greece and Bulgaria immediately move 2 levels up towards Entente, Romania 1 level. ***If a side declares war to Turkey, the Turkish Parliament becomes immediately Sacred Union. III – MINOR COUNTRIES Afghanistan ● Starts at Level 18 ● Pro-Central Powers Modifiers to Status changes: -1 if there are 3 British corps in the Indies -1 if Constantinople or Baghdad is occupied by the Allies +1 Afghanistan is in revolt (level ≥ 13) +1 if a British or Russian AMB is present (+2 both) +1 if Jihad has been ordered (event n°19) +1 Wassmuss present (via event n°35) Diplomatic Level (result): from 11 to 23 11–12 The Afghan tribes no longer resist. 13–14 The Allies (Britain, Russia) pacify the region. Afghanistan becomes “Neutral”. 15–19 Afghanistan is in revolt. Afghanistan is “pro-Central Powers”. 20–21 Serious uprising in Afghanistan, spreading to Indian Northwest Frontier. Great Britain must leave 1 corps in British India or lose NW -1 per turn as long as this level is maintained. 22+ Anglo-Afghan War: Great Britain must leave 2 corps in British India. Failing that, Great Britain loses NW -1 per turn. The war ends with a compromise (test randomly each turn), on 10+, each corps sent in excess of the 2 in British India grants a +1 bonus to this check (maximum +3). No diplomacy is possible for as long as the war lasts. World War One: La Grande Guerre 1914-1918 205
At the end of the war, a random number of losses (1 to 3) are suffered by Britain and 2 British corps are reduced. Afghanistan moves back to Level 16. Belgium ● Starts at Level 3 ● Neutral Modifiers to Status changes: -1 if Central Powers have invaded Holland +3 if Central Powers have obtained access via Belgium (-3 if it is Entente) (Level 8 or -4 attained) Diplomatic Level (result): from -4 to 10 -4 same result as 8+ but this time in favor of Entente. -3–0 Belgium’s government and its King are divided between a pro-Entente political stance and one favoring Central Powers. Belgian units suffer from a -1 in their combat value during the invasion turn if Entente attacks Belgium. Germany no longer receives Belgian agricultural aid. 1–5 Belgium observes strict neutrality. It grants agricultural aid to Germany. 6–7 same result as 1–5. Belgium’s government and King are divided between a pro-Entente political status and one favoring Central Powers. Belgian units suffer from a -1 penalty in their combat value during the first turn if Central Powers attack Belgium. 8+ same result as 6–7. Belgium authorizes military cooperation with Germany and gives it passage rights through its territory, as well as supply by rail. Attacks are authorized all along the Belgian border (by both sides) in Franco-Belgian border regions, but not towards the interior of the country. German units may retreat or station themselves into Belgium's interior (but without being able to attack). The Belgian Army is regrouped at Antwerp and does not intervene in the war. No diplomacy is possible as long as German units are present in Belgium. Brazil ● No diplomacy. May enter the game as an Entente member via event only ● Provides only economic effects (gain of EP by Entente powers) Bulgaria ● Starts at Level 5 ● Pro-Central Powers 206 World War One: La Grande Guerre 1914-1918 Modifiers to Status changes: +/-1 if Greece is in the war on the side of Entente/Central Powers +/-1 if Turkey or Romania is in the war on the side of: +1 Entente/1 Central Powers -2 if Vienna or Budapest is occupied by Russia -1 if an Russian AMB is present (this is favorable to Entente) +/-1 if an Turkish AMB is present, (negative effect for the Turkish side): -1 Central Powers, +1 Entente +1 Bucharest or Athens conquered by Central Powers +/-1 successful Grand Offensive on the Eastern Front, +1 Central Powers/-1 Entente, the most recent (1915+) +1 if the differential in “objective” cities between Central Powers – Entente is ≥ 3 (the same -1 in reverse for Entente) (only major power Objective cities, with a star in the middle) +1 if Warsaw or Kiev is occupied by Central Powers -1 if Serbia is with Central Powers (See Serbia, level 7+) Diplomatic Level (result) : track from -5 to 10 -5 Bulgaria declares war on Central Powers. Turkey, Greece and Romania immediately move 2 levels up, Italy 1 level up, towards Central Powers. -4 0 Only if Entente recognizes Bulgaria’s rights (otherwise same result as 5–6). Bulgaria becomes “pro-Entente”. Military cooperation granted: the same result as “7-9” below, but in favor of Russia. 1–4 Only if Entente recognizes Bulgaria’s rights (otherwise the same result as 5-6). Bulgaria distances itself and becomes “Neutral”. 5–6 Bulgaria is “pro-Central Powers” and continues its wait-and-see policy, no effect. 7–9 same result as 5–6. Bulgaria authorizes supply and commercial transfers through its country. It also allows the passage of the German “Süd” Army through its territory. Attacks are authorized along the border (by both sides). The German Army may retreat or station itself in the interior of Bulgaria (but not attack). The Bulgarian Army is regrouped at Sofia and does not intervene in the conflict. Bulgaria furnishes 5 EP of Economic Aid to Germany per Economic Phase. 10+ Bulgaria declares war on Entente. Turkey, Greece and Romania move 2 levels down, Italy 1 level down, towards Entente. Notes: ● Waiting Attitude: Bulgaria shows itself to be prudent and limits the efficiency of AMB in 1914 to +2 or -2 max., even if the AMB differential is greater (bonus “Pro-” included). This no longer applies in 1915. ● Balkan Revenge: Bulgaria and its King are on the lookout for only one thing, revenge for the disastrous end of the Second Balkan War in 1913. To represent the specific anti-Serb and anti-Greek attitude of Bulgaria, Bulgaria remains pro-Central Powers even if Levels -4 to 0 or 1–4 are reached (normally favorable to Entente). This handicap may be canceled by Entente with the “Recognition of Bulgarian Rights”Political Action during an Interphase.
