Fall 1917. Until last summer, the Allied have been making progress on all fronts, especially removing the threat to Egypt.
But the entry of Bulgaria and the start of the Russian Revolution is about to change everything...
We'll keep you posted.

I'm struggling to think of anything more humiliating than Tony Blair managing anything lest a foreign country destroyed by genocide.

Not the easiest game but it gives you hours of play.
Also, I love that it's about encircling the 6th Army and not about getting to Stalingrad as many other games are.

Somehow I have been playing more Pursuit than Paths.
The fact that the Russian Revolution happens in Pursuit of Glory ( difficult in Paths), the more emphasis on Gallipoli and the fights in the desert makes it quite appealing to me.
This does not mean I don't enjoy Paths of Glory! One of my favs!!
