UK Jan 1914

- A fleet of various warships runs the Ottoman blockade, and in a battle of firepower the Royal Navy triumphs (I haven't seen any turns of you building or improving ships, correct me if otherwise). British troops now arrive in greater volumes in Greece.

- Ottoman attempts to establish a beachhead on the Polepponese are resisted fiercely. Think Gallipoli but a role-reversal.

- The first British campaign is launched, with the objective of the liberation of the port of Volos and the city of Farsala. The British and Greeks push round the coastal plain of Mt Othrys, with machine guns and cavalry liberally used, whilst a large counter-offensive is opened to relieve pressure off of the Salamis Line.

- African Colonial troops and cavalry cross into Libya, reaching as far as Benghazi. Ottoman resistance is more stubborn around Tobruk, and a siege of the port begins.

- The body of the Russian Tsar is recieved in a solemn ceremony. King George travels with his cousin's body to Westminster Abbey, where it will lie for the time.
