Ngl, I really doubt the Israelis would invade on Yom Kippur, like wtf. That's not even considering the cold War political proxy stuff in regards to the Middle East with the US not supporting their main ally in the area.

Huh, wouldn't the British have at the very least sent a destroyer squadron or something to help the Greeks?

Is it not obvious? This is why the Italians are going beaten badly, they had no pasta!

Especially at the fact that the Bulgaria he so painfully made pilant to Roman rule is once again threatening Roman control of the Haemus.

Seems to me a few escort/light carriers would be excellent convoy attackers.

Yey, Lawrence's death was butterflied, I wondered how an alive Lawrence could contribute to the SOE and SAS. Seems like they're sending him back to his ole hunting grounds.

I feel one would be the better option. Giving the tl somekind of ending is better than leaving us hanging.

It is likely with the Aegean more or less shut off to the Genoese, Trebizond will soon dominate the Black Sea and retake Theodoro/Crimea. Now we have to see what the Venetian will respond to the resurgence of Imperial Naval Power.

Hopefully in this timeline the Romans hires alt!Orban's to design their cannons.

It is very likely the army will have to rest as the nearly year-long campaigning is taking its toll on the men no doubt. But still, within a year, Andronikos has secured most of Greece with the exception of Morea and Crete and that is no doubt a feat worthy of a triumph! Now, the Empire only...

I think it's from the comparatively lower density of forts by the Rhomans compared to the Latins.

In the west, the main thing for the Romans to do would be to secure the rest of Greece, Eprius and maybe reclaim the Danube border. I believe that the best borders the Romans could have would be Basil II's border.

I expect the Turkish economy to go into freefall in coming months. The Axis would not be able to supply them and I expect an invasion from Syria too.

And there are still the Megas Komnenoi kicking round in Trebizond. Hmm, maybe Alexandros is a hint that Trebizond potentially peacefully reunited with the Empire? And personally, I belive the Rhomans would try to conquer the Levant, but I don't believe they would get very far.

I wonder if the church starting its own trade will lead to snowball effects down the line. Hybrid Clergy-Merchants? Anyways, with the Anatolia frontier secure for now, the next move is likely cutting Serbia down to size and moving down towards Epirus/Thessaly or Morea?
