nope they didn’t exist, Bolsheviks now that is a different matter.

I had talked to Rufus and Kai about interwar gaming a lot with the rule set when they first showed it off at Historicon, so I imagine that is the plan to expand forces for WWI and beyond to other nations

Black and Tans? Interesting choice

Soviets came into being in 1921 or 1922 or there abouts I think

regular british army already exists in the main rule book so there is no point in duplicating it

Nice timing for Empress to be stocking a new WW1 Russian range.

lol … my bad … yeah, Russians and Cossaks of course
silly country should have kept just the one name instead of confusing us noobs with its history 😉

@blipvertus I guess that’s a big NO for the Dutch then ?

(yeah … we were neutral so bloody unlikely they will ever appear in a WW 1 game)

@limburger the first book covered:

British- Western Front
British – Gallipoli Front
British -Palestine Front ? Not sure of the exact term, but the war between British and Arab forces vs the Ottomans.
British – East Africa

French – Western Front

Belgium – Western Front

Germany – Western Front
Germany – East Africa

Ottoman Empire – Gallipoli
Ottoman Empire – Palestine

Arab Revolt though technically in the British Palestine lists, you can have a purely Arab force or a mixed British and Arab force.

United States – Western Front

The expansion will nicely cover several post WW1 conflicts.

And the system would work well for pre-war conflicts like the US/Mexican conflict.

I’ve already built two armies, working on a third army and trying to decide what order to make my fourth, fifth and sixth armies ?

@avernos ask about any new units universal units. I believe medics, flag bearers and musicians have been mentioned. Also asked about who the new named commanders will be.
