To All: I Apologise that this has not been updated for a couple of weeks, but as many of you may know, I am having doubts about my clarity while writing this. While you might say you know what I am going on about, and make no mistake I do at least make my updates make sense, I know I am not conveying a message the way I want it to be taken. As such, and with my other AAR (do go check it out) started well, I am going to slow down operations here at CAF. I will certainly not stop updating, but expect them to come along at much longer intervals as I both let my writing take more time and care in getting a message across and so I can concentrate on my narrative skills a little more. Do not expect this to come out like it has always done, AARs are very fluid things and you can notice how much the style has changed by page 25 than what it was on the first page, let me tell you, and I do not intend to stop making this better and more interesting and keep the styles flowing so you don't get bored with one. I will update this evening or tomorrow, though.
Ahura Mazda: Believe me, this is going to make Russia and Austria look like a cake walk, mainly because I am being mean to myself by not mobilising
canonized: If you were Denmark, would you ever challange Germany unless you were so sure that the nation was weak and falling apart at the seams and have France as your ally? I think not
coz1: Very glad to have you along coz, it is an honour, I assure you. I feel the politics has been left out since the elections and the 'June Laws' but I intend to bring politics back into this story with much more strength soon enough. As for the French, it is now a race to see who can get troops to the border first. The French have troops in Paris and Marseilles, but they will arrive on the frontier for now. I am pretty sure what I will do to stop them.
Enewald: A real struggle indeed. 480,000 Reserves in all, and when war was declared I upped that to 520,000, but I won't be calling them out unless things get dire; I can't afford it and I want the young Germany to have some kind of economy for when the fighting is done.
comagoosie: I have some ideas about colonies, but we will have to try our best as it allows. I don't have much of a fleet to be making major landings in French colonies, but I do have one ace up my sleeve when it comes to colonial conflicts...
Director: The Danes I should be able to take out pretty quickly. They possess 4 understrength divisions (3 Infantry and 1 Cavalry) two of which are in Pommern and the cavalry in Jutland, but in an event I gave them a full strength division under the pretenses of a French Expeditionary Force. The French will be tougher, but I doubt they will be landing on the north German coast, I take that they hope their erstwhile ally will keep me busy there. Even so, I won't waste troops guarding against a hypothetical invasion when all miliatary doctrine of the era dictates frontal attacks on enemy positions; Metz my friend, Metz
