Let's Fix Russia's Gunboat Woes

[Claesar]

What about a Spring 01 move to Armenia, paired with moves to Ukraine and Sevastopol? Turkey rarely moves to Armenia, and this would then put Turkey in a weekend positioned against Austria and hopefully allow a small chance at taking the Black Sea by a follow up to Black Sea in the Autumn while you take Rumania from Ukraine or Sevastopol.

How does Russia have a chance to take Black Sea? They're not even guaranteed Rumania at that point.

If Turkey moves the fleet back to cover Ankara.

Ah, Russia moving to Armenia. I misunderstood.

Won't Turkey just order BLA-Rum S Bul, Con-Ank? What's your move to counter that?

I mean, we're just throwing ideas out there. They aren't all guaranteed to be good

My approach is the following. In my opinion Germany is the strongest power in gunboats, Russia is the weakest. So the only thing I would do is give some extra power to Russia at the expense of Germany.

I "started" looking at these games, meaning I made a google sheet that I'll forget about in a few days...but anyone with this link can edit it.
