Eastern Front:

Baltic - The Russian Navy tries, and fails to break the blockade of the Gulf of Riga, no German ships sunk, and now the counter will have to be absorbed.

Northern Russia - German moves out of their trench's and advances on Vilna in two spots..... Russia see's this as the time to counter attack. One GE IC destroyed, a Cav unit heavly damaged but 4 Russian IC are left exposed! Russia decides to assault out of the 'Riga' HQ zone..... units push into Prussia.

Southern Russia - All quiet, the garrison units by Odessa join this front leaving that bridgehead to the Navy to deal with.

June 30th 1917 (T85)

Shadow Front: Central Powers NM continues to drop but they are on the attack in France, Italy and Russia.. better weapons, more experienced HQ and desperation are driving them forward. Norway once again complains about her ore getting sunk (63%), soon it will not be words but guns she will respond with! Every week its more bloodshed, some of the loss's are not getting reported anymore, just too much death.

Western Front:

France - The battles by Lille and Nancy continue, but at a reduced intensity as many of the units are filled with raw recruits (low moral), one UK and one GR IC lost. GE pulls back its armor from outside the fortress, UK decides its too expensive to regroup her armor till winter.

Italy - AH retakes Trieste and destroys one IT IC, Italy counters by wiping out the DT on the front line NW of the city. UK units from the Middle East start landing and getting upgraded/reinforced(IW1) on Italian soil. Italian units in the rear recive new weapons as well (IW2).

Atlantic - Another of the raiding subs is spotted (Intel Tech) off the coast of Spain and one light CN and DD respond... damage is minor.



British Sector:

Eastern Front:

Northern Russia - Germany makes contact with the Russian Units that have crossed the river into Prussia but little combat right now, next turn. The advance units outside of Vilna get pounded, three Ru IC lost, Russian units near by retreat behind the city. The 'Riga' army entrenchs while the Cav unit breaks though and captures the NM city of Prussia!

Southern Russia - Movement and reinforcement, where units are in contact trench raids are conducted if possible.

Baltic - The German Navy retreats without firing a shot..... Russia controls the Gulf of Riga!

July 14th 1917

Shadow Front: Romania starts to see that the Entente might win, swings to our side (85%). The two CP NM fall below 20% for each, the loss of the fortress city in Prussia was a hard blow for Germany.

Western Front:

France - More combat up and down the line as UK determines that Germany has few reserve's left behind the lines... over the top boys and lets finish this before the Yanks show up! Bloody weeks, one UK, Fr IC lost, one UK Tank destroyed, 3 GE IC and 1 DT wiped out.

Italy - Strong AH units make contact with the old IT line now that Trieste is firmly in their hands, It and AH trade one IC.

Atlantic - The Grand Fleet is slipping ships into the Baltic.... slowly. Two Subs raiding the most southern convoy line.

Eastern Front:

Northern Russia - Germany heavily counters all the Russia units that are exposed, 1DT 2IC lost, the raiding Cav unit reduced to str 2. Russia dig's in and holds the ground they have gained in Prussia, the army's around Vilna pull back and prepare for an assault.

Southern Russia - Quiet, minor trench raids.

Baltic - UK units discover a blocking DD and sink it, the cats out of the bag... the Royal Navy is in the Baltic Sea.

July 28th 1917

Western Front:

France - With many Entente units exposed as they move across no mans land, the GE picks the weakest and destroys a Fr IC that was rushed to the front line. UK and French response is to dig in and reinforce the many units that are al below strength.

Italy - Quiet turn except the abandoned Italian DT is destroyed SE of Trieste.

Atlantic - About half the convoy duty ships are returning home, 3 raiding subs are still out there but all are located. A GE light CN finds the mine/subs blocking the Kiel cannel and is sunk.

Eastern Front:

All the Russia's - Quiet, minor trench raids. In the Baltic a solid line is forming as more UK ships enter the sea. On the Black Sea the coast of Bulgaria is scouted and found defenseless.

Balkan Front:

Greece, with the help of French SF, Serbian units, and UK troops from the middle east break out using a port on the northern coast.... Bulgaria falls back in surprise.

August 4th 1917 - A very bloody month

France - As has been going on for two years. Germany, France, and Britten have been trading IC near the city's of Nancy and Lille. This time its the loss of 1 UK, 2 Fr and 2 GE units destroyed.

Italy - AH digs deeper holes, Italy shifts units around to try and make a general push along the whole line before mud sets in.

Atlantic - 2 subs caught in the south and getting harassed by Fr, It, UK DD and one CN. A third subs escapes from the Spanish coast. Iceland blockade at 50%, North sea at 100%, the coast of the GE is locked down.

Northern Russia - Vilna falls to Germany, but the counter attack by Russia destroys two of the IC that are weakened and exposed outside of entrenchments.

Southern Russia - AH makes strong raids, supported by two AT but can not push back the well supported and located Russian units.

Baltic - Opening clash of the Grand and High Sea's fleet... 3 light GE units sunk.

Greece - Bulgaria falls back, the multi national army peruses to the old boarders.

August 25th 1917

Shadow Front - Romania now has roughly 4 diplomats from each Entente trying to bring her into the war! Each country is really starting to feel the effects of so much death, UK 75, Fr 51, It 84, Ru 40 / GE 11, AH 16. Russia, hard pressed in the war is starting to see revolts and strikes in much of the rear areas.

Western Front - More combat on the entire line, all side exchange IC for blood soaked ground... nothing changes.

Battle of the Baltic in its full context - One UK BB sunk, several GE Units sunk or heavily damaged.
