OOC: Are you serious? The French army was one of the best equipped in the world. The only reason the Germans got to the Marne was because the Belgians fell so darn fast, just like in the Second World War. I don't believe this First World War is going to be anything like the actual First World War...it's impossible to create a historically accurate role play..trust me...everything is going to be MUCH different...you may be able to expect the WWI allies to be the RP axis.... I think you guys are going to be VERY dissapointed on how this is going to turn out. BTW, the submarine is not a German invention. Both the English and the French had submarines, just didn't use them. The submarine was first used in the American Civil War by the Confederates... and they're aren't really submarines, they're submergibles. This is new france (maybe) but any way. acctually the first sub was used in the american Revolution not the civil war

ooc: At the beginning of World War One, the French admiralty was pretty much the only navy in the world that actually appreciated the Submarine. The German Navy was not yet interested in the designs, until they realized their potential.
