Centennial Paths of Glory. Turn 1

Our standard Fall PoG game had begun last October 2nd.  As many other wargamers we will celebrate the Centennial of WWI by playing PoG. We decided to not go for the historical setup but a standard one. Molina will lead the CPs and me will command APs.
Turn 1: August 1914
MO: AH and BR.

CPs had opened with a standard movement. Playing Guns of August for a devastating attack on Sedan, succesfully flanking the French Armies with no GE losses and 7 steps for the poor French. GE 1st and 3rd Army entered Sedan when FRc retreated to Melun.

Then action was shifted to the East with Russian and Austrian trying flankings attacks on Tarnopol and Belgrade respectively. Both attacks failed and were big defeats for the attacking players. Russian offensive in Galicia was stopped at the very first attempt and AH must deal with the menacing serbs.
Then followed a few Action Rounds with CP player replacing their forces in Austro-Serbian border while AP was  playing for events to advance in his WS (now at 4, Rape of Belgium and Blockade) towards  limited War.
CP continued to hit in the Western Front by attacking the fortress at Verdun and causing big casualties while the combined BEF and Belgium forces counterattacked at the german flanks in Liege.
Russians tried to put some pressure into AH ranks but with little success.
AP missed a big opportunity at the end of August when CPs played for Replacements and Allied did not have enough OPs to penetrate directly into the German supply sources.

After the Brit attack Germans have a hole in their lines that goes directly into Essen (supply source).  AP can not penetrate because having only 2CP cards they can not activate Brussels (2ops) and Lomza (1op) in the last action to put the whole CP army into OOS (and ending the war in August).

End of turn: VP=9, WS: AP=4, CP=2.
