1834 AD
German Forces

With nearly a hundred mechanized infantry and a similar number of modern armor, we are well-prepared for the defense of Germany. Bismark has ordered an increase in our stealth bomber production. 

1834 AD
French Forces

Our spy reveals the extent of the French military buildup. With nearly two hundred infantry, France will be a formidable foe. Fortunately, they do not have modern armor, and their artillery commander is strictly old school, using his artillery only for defense. 

1834 AD
Indian Forces

Our information is that the Indian forces are not as well-prepared for this war as they should be. 

Value of Information: Knowing  the strengths and weaknesses of the enemy is paramount in conducting military operations. In this case, we know that the enemy is weak on attack, but has very strong defenses. Bombardment is the best counter to fortifications. We must build more bombers.
