First of all, a congratulations to Guaroz for his victory ~
Now some EoG comments: in general, I deem myself rather fortunate to have survived for 7 years under the constant pressure of a Juggernaut plus occasional attacks from Germany.
For the opening stage, I did expect a bounce at Galicia, but I did not expect an Juggernaut attempt in a gunboat, and I definitely did not expect Germany to go against me as well, given the Juggernaut is already formed at that stage. When I saw Russia and Turkey supporting each other's units, I knew quite well that my doom was guaranteed.
However, I tried to hold the line against the Eastern alliance, in the hope that the Western triangle will realize the formation of the Juggernaut and be willing to bury hatchets and march East together. For many seasons I hoped, I waited, and I thought the German army heading South was to my aid so that I could buy more time for the West to get settled. But my hopes failed me, and then my armies failed me, and so I fell.
At that time I knew that even if the West finally got settled, it would be far too late to stop the Juggernaut's momentum. The only thing I waited to see, then, would be the first stabbing move from either Russia or Turkey - and there it went, nice move into Serbia and Black Sea.
