When you're researching about Arabia in 1900s (early 1900s) and it gets to the point where you have 7 tabs open and 6 of them are wiki articles. You should see how many tabs I have. Austria Hungary, a country where the more research you do about it, the more complicated it gets. that's the reason I didn't take Austria. But the Ottomans are in for some mess too the next year. |

Really? This is justs weird how come do you not know about it? I got to know about it like five years ago while on some site about history. Frederick the Great, them emus can be recruited too then I think  This makes me want to create an emu faction for Wesnoth. 50% pierce proof, 8 mov, liminal skirmishers sounds pretty OP. |

Imagine emus charging at you with artillery support as covering fire! |

Imagine emus charging at you with artillery support as covering fire! No,seriously, they'd be OP in Wesnoth. They're almost pierceproof (bullets are confirmed to be ranged pierce), and pierce is a very common damage type (aka spearmen, bowmen, any cavalry that charges are pretty much useless), they're fast moving, meaning infantry can't hope to catch them; and they can skirmish, meaning most Battle lines won'twork on them. |

Moral of the story; Russian help. |

I'm also following real history of the Greek and Romanian navies. That means buying pasta as well as Vodka and Earl Grey  |

The menu isn't limited in food. I can't promise dreadnoughts and deathstars though. I'm saving them for myself and half of the players have at least one dreadnought for themselves anyway. |

The list was not exhaustive. I would certainly love to receive Pizza. Greece is the oldest wine-producing region in Europe, however, and thus Wine imports will remain voluntary, not government compulsory. I want to purchase 2-3 Pisa-class cruisers. IRL Greece purchased one. They were produced 2 years from now, but that is younger than HMS Dreadnought so I see no problem. Was going to say in PM but whatever. BTW, Greece will build deathstars out of its land army. |

That feel when Germany AND Denmark surrender after the first battle. Thanks to stoic for suggesting Gunpowder Russia. Update: Add Canada to that list |
