Serb Armies sacrifice in vain, Austria triumphs. But we will prevail.
Russia still advances hoping to draw troops away from France.

I would like to put my views about the starting battles, but first the official dispatches.
The Russian armies advance and capture Rawa Ruska, Tarnopol and Zloczow, long live the Tsar!.
Now, apologies to my Anglo-French allies but the temptation was too strong due to Ben's comments about the great battles in the West.
My Observations-
The British army was half of Kluck's army, similar to Battle of Mons, casualties were equal, the positions were almost Historical and as per most recent History books (1600+ vs 2100+ is the bodycount, slightly in favour of the British) but overall Kluck losing is spoiling for the Game. Maybe the British can be bumped up into "regulars" but lose 1/2 experience points so that they do inflict casualties but cannot win a battle against the Full strength of the First army (this was the strongest German army BTW).
Anyway, my ords.
P.S.: BEN as per plan Polska i need to send 40 elements into German/Austrian territories and not into East Prussia, do i still have to lose NM? after-all i have 3 armies in Austrian territory and 1 in German lands. Plus several cavalry are scouting Austrian positions.

Altaris do you know if British are in near Douai in day 4, because I not see british in all of my fight... (In PON I already see Ally not enter fight when all other troop enter, (just less chance), maybe you need up that ? )
Also why I lose MM by Russia ? I already lose Resiliance because he not do the plan of attack Germany...

For French with Moral (Thank to Russia xD), I guess French can't win any big fight. (I am very interesting to know why I never see British in my fight, he just continue move where french are lose lol.)

It's a bug in the warplan commitment event, I think. Evidently the Area parameter for SelectSubUnits won't take more than 1 area, and in this case it's scripted to check BOTH Germany and A/H. Not easily fixable without another release (since I'll have to add a new area combining these two) so I'll just script your NM losses back to you in the next turn processing.
RE: BEF, the losses in the Battle of Lille were almost exactly equal here, so I'm not seeing a giant issue. At this stage, Germany is already quite potent (as we saw in PBEM #1, you were right outside Paris, and quite possibly could've taken it with a full on assault). The BEF got trashed pretty good fighting for Lille (lost about 45% of its strength) so it's going to have to retreat or risk getting destroyed. This is pretty much what French had to consider after Mons. Kluck's 1st Army, on the other hand, is still in pretty good shape. Let's see how the rest of the game plays out before jumping to any more changes. Beefing up the Germans much more than they are now is going to lead to the Entente being unable to contain them, and a game where Paris falls in 1914 every time is going to be boring

The battle of Lille was a bit weird. First round of battle german and british exchanged shots. Second round the british II. Corps was destroyed while a German cavalry corps MTSG from Mons got destroyed, which I think triggered 1. Armee at Lille to retreat. Not sure that without that cav corp being destroyed that the british would have done well in the third round of combat.
@Altaris: a small bug, the general who was commanding the cav corps force is now recovering from his wounds but is named GL III. Kavallerie Korps.

@Lindi
The Russians lost 5NM as they do not have artillery to storm the German forts.
French lost NM because the Germans entered French territory like Sedan etc, the defensive plan once chosen means you have to stop the Germans from occupying their "OBJECTIVES". Once they occupy, France will get -10NM. Fall of Maubenge or Lilee triggered that 10 NM loss for France not the Russians.
Russian objectives and French ones do not overlap.
@BEN
Do not give the +NM to France and Russia, the warplans work well, my mistake in "reading".
The POLSKA plan wants Russia to put 40 elements in Germany and 40 in Austria not total, once i re-ran the turn with those considerations, it was ok.
As for Samsonov not reaching Tannenberg- it is right, if he ditched his supply truck and the medium gun he can reach his destination.
As it was due to marshy lands and forests the Imperial army could not supply him.

I think always is take area not just enter.
Turn 6 posted.
@Lindi: Commitment is honored upon entering area, taking it is not necessary. However, there is a bug in the script, it only looks at $Area_Germany and doesn't include A/H. This is why the event failed. It may have worked for Shri's test b/c he put 40+ elements in Germany.
I have fixed for next version already, if you guys want me to script your NM back, I will.

My Ords.
I guess your war-plans work BEN, so i will definitely pass-up the NM offer.
The whole point of the testing is to check if the War- Plans and events work well.
