Captain of the Watch

Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

I joined the game for the fall 01 orders ... no, that's not the beginning of an excuse. Russia was in Gal and Italy had ordered Ven - Tri (and bounced) in the spring. My fall orders (and the orders to follow) were all defensive.
By the end of 1902 it was already over. Russia and Turkey had allied and Italy was concentrating on the west (but leaving the Venice army there for my support).
I'd done nothing meaningful to stop Turkey's advance. On reflection, I should have come out with all guns blazing, taken Serbia in '01 and put up a bit of a fight. H
