1913–14 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Colliflower had coached the Hoyas for three seasons, posting an overall record of 32-17 and shepherding the men's basketball program through disputes over it between the undergraduate campus and the Law School. A part-time coach who made ends meet by attending to his coal delivery business, he stepped down as coach and returned to that business after this season when Georgetown hired John O'Reilly to succeed him as a full-time head coach. When O'Reilly later fell ill and could not coach, Colliflower returned to serve as head coach without pay during the 1921-22 season.

1913–14 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, 1913–14 schedule and results
It was common practice at this time for colleges and universities to include non-collegiate opponents in their schedules, with the games recognized as part of their official record for the season, and games played against the Washington YMCA and the Maryland Athletic Club counted as part of Georgetown's won-loss record for 1913–14. It was not until 1952, after the completion of the 1951–52 season, that the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) ruled that colleges and universities could no longer count games played against non-collegiate opponents in their annual won-loss records.

1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season
The 1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season was the 17th season of play for the program.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
After paring the team down to 24 men, Harvard began its first year as a major sport with a tune-up game against the Boston Athletic Association. Soft ice and early-season jitters contributed to a less-than-stellar effort from the Crimson and they lost the match 1–3 while cycling through many of their alternate players. The loss was unfortunate but hardly damaging to their season. A bigger development was the continued and expanding interest of ice hockey for the student body. Undergraduates were so enamored with the idea of joining the team that a second squad of 34 men, completely separate from the Varsity and Freshman teams, was organized and a schedule arranged.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
After the rather poor effort in the B. A. A. game, Harvard exploded out of the gate against MIT and did not take the pressure off all game, ending with a dominant 11–1 victory. The convincing victory demonstrated how the good the team could be as they embarked on their first ever holiday trip over the winter break. They would play Syracuse HC and Ottawa each twice with the team being billeted at the home of team captain Willetts in nearby Skaneateles.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
The trip started well with the team producing a solid win against the Syracuse Club, but afterwards the results turned sour. Syracuse earned a split with a 2–1 win, then Ottawa strangled the Crimson offense, not allowing a goal in either of the two matches. The defense from Harvard, provided mostly by Willetts and Clafin, was notable but the lack of scoring punch doomed the Crimson from the start. The terrible results portended a bad season for the Crimson, and once they began their intercollegiate schedule began those predictions bore fruit.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
Harvard could only just defeat Amherst a team they should have had not trouble against. Despite the close shaves, the Crimson alternates were gaining much needed game experience. Against Massachusetts Agricultural College the offense continued to struggle, showing up just in the nick of time to overcome a deficit in overtime and again escape with a one-goal victory. When the hosted Dartmouth the score was tight once more, but the team looked to be performing much more as a cohesive unit.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
Their next game came against Princeton. Harvard had been a thorn in Princeton's side over the previous two years, being the only team to beat the Tigers the previous year. The Crimson defense had faced Princeton star Hobey Baker before and knew how to play against him. They used that experience to restrict the speedy Baker and keep the game tied for most of the contest. Even when Princeton opened the scoring it was a scant few minutes before the game was knotted at 1-all. Afterwards, no matter how hard the Tigers tried, they could not penetrate the stifling defense.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
A 14-minute overtime session was played to no effect, then an open-ended second overtime began and followed sudden-death rules. Harvard took full advantage of its many alternates while Princeton was forced to play with nearly the same seven players all game. The Tigers flagged from fatigue and in the 78th minute of what was scheduled as a 40-minute game, Saltonstall ended the game in Harvard's favor.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
Harvard dropped their next game to McGill but when they faced Yale the four goal effort from Hopkins gave Harvard a chance at a second consecutive intercollegiate title. The Crimson had played each game over the previous month at the Boston Arena, however, and now they would have a second chance to prove their mettle on the road. When they met Yale in New Haven the Crimson were not prepared for the hard checking from the Elis and Yale pushed Harvard around for most of the game.


1913–14 Harvard Crimson men's ice hockey season, Season
Three days later in a second rematch, Princeton could have tried to follow Yale's game plan but they stuck to their own high-octane game and simply outplayed the Crimson, scoring the final three goals in 4–2 victory. Worse for Harvard, Willetts and Philips were injured in the game and doubt was cast on their ability to compete in the final games against Princeton and Yale. Both players started the rubber match with Princeton a week later but it was clear that the Tigers were the better team. Despite keying their defense on Baker, the Tiger star could not be contained and assisted on three Princeton goals in a 4–1 victory.


1913–14 Heart of Midlothian F.C. season

In the fall of 1913, the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) and the NHA agreed to support a draft arrangement, whereby the PCHA could draft NHA players annually for four years. The PCHA would draft three players on a rotating basis among the NHA teams. Amateur players from west of Port Arthur, Ontario, would be considered to belong to the PCHA, and players east of Port Arthur to be considered NHA property. The first draft, in 1914, would have the PCHA select one player from Ottawa, one from Quebec, and one from the Wanderers.


1913–14 NHA season, League business, Peace with the PCHA and Maritime League
The two leagues also agreed on arrangements to play off annually for the Stanley Cup. At the end of the 1913–14 season, the NHA champions would host the PCHA champions. The NHA would be responsible for arranging the series with the Stanley Cup trustees, something that they would neglect to do, leading to confusion over the first official series between the two leagues.


1913–14 NHA season, League business, Peace with the PCHA and Maritime League
At the November 8, 1913, annual meeting, the NHA ratified the four-year working agreement with the PCHA and agreed on a similar deal with the Maritime League. The NHA gave up its claim on any players now employed by the MHL.

1913–14 NHA season, Playoffs, Victoria vs. Toronto
Nearing the end of the season, the NHA made arrangements for the NHA champion to receive a challenge from the Sydney Millionaires, Maritime champions, ordered by the Stanley Cup trustees. As arranged by the NHA, the series would have taken place on March 9 through 11. After that, the winner would face off in a series with the PCHA champions in Toronto. The tie in the NHA standings meant that the March 9–11 dates would be postponed. Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Blueshirts met March 7 in Montreal and March 11 in Toronto to determine the NHA Champion and new Stanley Cup Champion. The challenge series against Sydney Millionaires was cancelled.


1913–14 NHA season, Playoffs, Victoria vs. Toronto
After dispatching the Canadiens, the Blue Shirts faced off against the Victoria Aristocrats of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association. A controversy erupted when a letter arrived from the Stanley Cup trustees on March 17, stating that the trustees would not let the Stanley Cup travel west, as they did not consider Victoria a proper challenger because they had not formally notified the trustees. However, on March 18, Trustee William Foran stated that it was a misunderstanding.


1913–14 NHA season, Playoffs, Victoria vs. Toronto
PCHA president Frank Patrick had not filed a challenge, because he had expected Emmett Quinn of the NHA to make all of the arrangements in his role as hockey commissioner, whereas the trustees thought they were being deliberately ignored. In any case, all arrangements had been ironed out and the series was accepted.


1913–14 NHA season, Playoffs, Victoria vs. Toronto
Several days later, trustee William Foran wrote to NHA president Emmett Quinn that the trustees are "perfectly satisfied to allow the representatives of the three pro leagues (NHA, PCHA and Maritime) to make all arrangements each season as to the series of matches to be played for the Cup."


1913–14 NHA season, Playoffs, Victoria vs. Toronto
Total attendance for the series was 14,260 for an average of 4,753 in the 7,500 capacity Arena. At the time, professional hockey was less of a draw than Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) senior hockey. Two games between local OHA senior teams had combined to exceed 14,000 total attendance. The Torontos players and staff received $297 each as their share of the gate receipts.


1913–14 NHA season, Post-season exhibitions

1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season
The 1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season was the 15th season of play for the program.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
With Hobey Baker in his final season of eligibility, Princeton had a good opportunity to reclaim the intercollegiate championship that had eluded them the year before. They continued the best of three series against both Harvard and Yale with the winner likely to be the best team in the nation. Baker, who had been team captain the year before, stepped to the side to allow fellow senior Wendel Kuhn to serve in that capacity though it was clear that Baker was still the best player on the team. Former team members Clarence Peacock and Cyril Ballin returned to serve as assistant coaches for the team.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
After several good practices the team opened their season against St. Paul's School, the alma mater of both Baker and Kuhn, and the speedy Baker demonstrated that he hadn't taken a step back with a double hat-trick in the 8–3 win. Over the holiday break the Tigers played defending Canadian champion Toronto, winning the game 5–2 behind Kuhn's 4-goal game. They then took on the Boston Athletic Association, who had already defeated Harvard, and again won, this time by a score of 4–3. Princeton lost Rolland Peacock to a knee injury in the second match but the pair of goals by Kuhn and Baker were enough to give the Tigers the win.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
After the break was over Princeton played Ottawa and the Canadian team proved a difficult match. The Gee-Gees played rough against Baker throughout the game and use a good effort to score three times early. Unfortunately, one of those goals was on their own net so when Baker scored the first goal from a Tiger stick he knotted the game at 2–2. The two teams played an extra session to no effect so a second overtime period was required.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
Both teams were exceedingly tired by this point but despite the fatigue Ottawa was able to score twice to hand Princeton their first loss of the season. The Tigers took their frustration out on their next opponent, Cornell; after allowing the first goal just 18 seconds into the contest Princeton scored the next nine to win in a convincing fashion. Kuhn netted 5 og the goals while Baker and Kilner each had a pair with the former credited with at least three assists.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
Their second intercollegiate match came a few days later and, despite a valiant effort by Dartmouth goaltender Donohue, Princeton was victorious. The following game against Army ended up being a strange affair. With Kuhn absent, Baker served as team captain but didn't play the entire game. From the start it was apparent that the Tigers were the better team despite missing some of their normal starters. After building a 4–0 lead in a 15-minute half the game was called after only 5 minutes in the second half on account of darkness but even in that short time Baker was substituted for the first time to give Shenstone a bit of game experience at rover.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
When Princeton began the championship series with Harvard they had to do so without two of their starters, Kilner and Grant Peacock. The lack of talent and substitutes harmed Princeton's ability to compete and Harvard took full advantage, winning one of the longest games in college hockey history 2–1. The Tigers' next game came at Yale on the Elis' newly completely steel rink. The Bulldogs jumped out to a 3–1 lead but the speed of Hobey Baker, despite playing on dulled skates, allowed Princeton to the tie the game.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
The team speed of the Tigers kept them on the attack in the extra session with Kuhn scoring twice to salt the game away. The rematch three days later was nearly the opposite as Princeton jumped out to a three-goal lead less than seven minutes into the game and then slumped badly afterwards. Fortunately for the Tigers the Yale offense wasn't up to the task and could only manage a single goal, allowing Princeton to sweep the series despite Baker receiving the only penalty of his collegiate career, a tripping minor.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
For the second straight year Princeton entered their rematch with Harvard needing a win to force a third game. Baker was again the star of the game, assisting on Kilner's goal to open the scoring then netting one of his own to tie the match just before the end of the half. Baker's second goal came just past the midway point of the second and put the Tigers ahead for good in a 4–2 win.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
The final game against Harvard would eventually serve as the championship game and proved to be one of the best performances of the season for Princeton and Baker specifically. While the Tigers star was held without a goal he was instrumental in three of Princeton's tallies and nearly caused a fourth. Kuhn and MacColl each scored twice and the stellar defense provided by Winants and Emmons held Harvard to just a single goal, allowing Princeton to claim the collegiate championship.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
One week later Princeton made its first trip outside the country when they went to Ottawa to take on the Canadian champion, Ottawa Gee-Gees. The Gee-Gees had given Princeton their first loss of the season and the Tigers were eager to repay them for the favor, and claim an international championship in the process. Both teams proved the measure of one another and an overtime session was required. Just as the first extra period was ending Ottawa managed to find the back of the net and end Princeton's otherwise brilliant season on a sour note.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Season
Hobey Baker led the team in scoring with at least 19 goals and was credited with no less than 13 assists. For his career Baker finished with at minimum 80 goals and 44 assists in 37 games, though it is probable that his true assist total is much higher. Despite that his pace was at least 3 points per game which would place him among the top scorers in the history of college ice hockey.


1913–14 Princeton Tigers men's ice hockey season, Scoring Statistics
Note: Assists were not recorded as a statistic.† The second goal scored by Princeton in their final game was not recorded due to a communication interruption caused by a blizzard.

The 1913–14 season was Stoke's fifth season in the Southern Football League.


1913–14 Stoke F.C. season
Stoke were now back in the poor quality Southern League Division Two and expectations were to gain an instant return to Division One. Stoke started the season well winning nine games in a row, however the team ran into poor form in the new year and ended up finishing 5th, 11 points from promotion. It was a bad performance and in April 1914 both chairman Mr Rev. A Hurst and manager Alfred Barker stepped down.


1913–14 Stoke F.C. season, Season review, League
Division Two of the Southern League for the 1913–14 season was made up of selection of poor Welsh clubs and a smattering of sides from around the London area, namely Luton Town, Brentford and Croydon Common. There was no money available, meaning the club had to rely on free transfers. There were still a number of new faces with the likes of former England international Fred Pentland joining from Halifax, James Bradley returning from Liverpool and Billy Herbert from Glossop. With Stoke doing well from the start of the season crowds were often good as Stoke embarked on a nine match winning run. However long distance travelling eventually caused Stoke problems and they lost their form and ended up finishing in a poor position of fifth.


1913–14 Stoke F.C. season, Season review, League
The directors, obviously disappointed as were the players and supporters, at not winning promotion, vowed to continue to build the team despite having little money available. Alfred Barker was now under pressure from supporters and indeed some directors who questioned his wisdom to employ part-time staff. He and chairman A. Hurst both stepped down in April 1914. It was a sad way to see such key figures, responsible for saving the club, leave in such circumstances.


1913–14 Stoke F.C. season, Season review, FA Cup

The club then played and defeated the Victoria Aristocrats in the first hockey "World Series" against the champion of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA).


1913–14 Toronto Hockey Club season, Off-season
Bruce Ridpath resigned as general manager of the club prior to the season, replaced by Jack Marshall. Ridpath himself tried out as a player but gave up his comeback before the season started. Of the previous season's squad, Archie McLean was dropped and Frank Nighbor moved to British Columbia.

After dispatching the Canadiens, the Blueshirts faced off against the Victoria Aristocrats of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) in a best-of-five series, with all games played at the Arena Gardens. As one of the duties of the hockey commission for the NHA, PCHA and Maritime leagues, the playoff with the PCHA had been arranged prior to the season, but it had not been cleared with the Stanley Cup trustees.


1913–14 Toronto Hockey Club season, Stanley Cup playoffs
A controversy erupted when a letter arrived from the Stanley Cup trustees on March 17, that the trustees would not let the Stanley Cup travel west, as they did not consider Victoria a proper challenger because they had not formally notified the trustees. However, on March 18, Trustee William Foran stated that it was a misunderstanding. PCHA president Frank Patrick had not filed a challenge, because he had expected Emmett Quinn of the NHA to make all of the arrangements in his role as hockey commissioner, whereas the trustees thought they were being deliberately ignored. In any case, all arrangements had been ironed out and the Victoria challenge was accepted. The trustees later sent a letter to league executives that Stanley Cup playoff arrangements would be handled by the leagues themselves henceforth.


1913–14 Toronto Hockey Club season, Stanley Cup playoffs
Total attendance for the series was 14,260, out of a possible 22,500 (including standing room) capacity at the Arena. At the time, professional hockey was less of a draw than Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) senior hockey. Two games between local OHA senior teams had drawn over 14,000. The Torontos players and staff received $297 each as their share of the gate receipts.

1913–14 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
After the disastrous run of home cancellations the year before, Yale began making plans to build a permanent ice hockey facility on campus. While the plans got so far as hiring a contractor to begin designing the building, the Bulldogs would still have to use the temporary Yale Arena for the 1913–14 season, which had been improved by the addition of artificial ice.


1913–14 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
The Arena was ready for its first practice on January 20 and just four days later, Yale hosted its first game against the St. Nicholas Hockey Club. Work was still being done on the Arena when the Elis welcomed Princeton to New Haven and gave the Tigers all they had. Yale scored first and held the powerful Princeton offence off the scoresheet in the first half, then extended their lead in the second. In the final five minutes Princeton scored twice to tie the game. The two teams agreed to play two 5-minute overtimes and, after Princeton score twice more in the first extra session, Yale began a furious attack but all shots were repelled and the Bulldogs fell 3–5.


1913–14 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
Yale lost their next match to Dartmouth, also in double overtime, leaving the team hungry for a win against arch-rival Harvard. Yale was at a disadvantage with the game being in Boston, but the team still battled their foes to a draw after both halves. Once more two overtimes were ordered but it was Harvard who scored in the first and then relied on their oppressive defense to keep the lead, resulting in a 4–3 victory for the Crimson. The rematch was just days later back in New Haven and that time it was Yale's defense that won the day. Both goaltenders were stellar throughout the match but it was Yale's offense that proved superior. The Elis scored three goal to Harvard's one and set up a rubber match at the end of February.


1913–14 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
The win over Harvard appeared to buoy the spirits of the team and it rolled off three consecutive wins over the next ten days. The victories sent Yale into their final confrontation with Harvard at the end of the month with pride at stake. With Princeton having already wrapped up the Intercollegiate championship the two teams could focus solely on defeating one another. Harvard got off to a fast start, scoring just 29 seconds into the game. Yale tried to return the favor but the Crimson defense held them back. The Elis managed only one goal in the game while Harvard's four gave them the season series.


1913–14 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
Yale was able to tack on a game against Massachusetts Agricultural College  to give themselves one official home game before the rematch against Harvard. Yale scored first and led at the half but, similar to the Princeton game, Harvard scored three goals and dominated the period. The Elis closed the gap with less than a minute to play but they could not stop Harvard from claiming the Intercollegiate title.


1913–14 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season, Season
For the first time since 1901, Yale didn't end their season against Harvard, instead playing one more home game and winning against a local club team.


1913–14 Yorkshire Cup
The 1913–14 Yorkshire Cup was the ninth occasion on which the Yorkshire Cup competition, a Rugby league tournament, was held. This season there were no junior/amateur clubs taking part, no new entrants and no "leavers" and so the total of entries remained the  same at thirteen. This in turn resulted in three byes in the first round.


1913–14 Yorkshire Cup
This year saw a previous two-time winner, Huddersfield taking the trophy by beating Bradford Northern by the score of 19–3 in the final. The match was played at Thrum Hall, Halifax, now in West Yorkshire. The attendance was 12,000 and receipts were £430. This was Huddersfield's fourth appearance in what would be seven appearances in eight consecutive finals between 1909 and 1919 (which included four successive victories and six in total), and who knows, but for the intervention of the First World War and suspension of the competition, it may have been more. It was also the first of the four consecutive wins.


1913–14 Yorkshire Cup, Background
The Rugby Football League's Yorkshire Cup competition was a knock-out competition between (mainly professional) rugby league clubs from  the  county of Yorkshire. The actual area was at times increased to encompass other teams from  outside the  county such as Newcastle, Mansfield, Coventry, and even London (in the form of Acton & Willesden.


1913–14 Yorkshire Cup, Background
The Rugby League season always (until the onset of "Summer Rugby" in 1996) ran from around August-time through to around May-time and this competition always took place early in the season, in the Autumn, with the final taking place in (or just before) December (The only exception to this was when disruption of the fixture list was caused during, and immediately after, the two World Wars).

1914
1914 (MCMXIV) was a common year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar and a common year starting on Wednesday of the Julian calendar, the 1914th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 914th  year of the 2nd millennium, the 14th  year of the 20th century, and the  5th   year of the 1910s decade. As of the start of 1914, the Gregorian calendar was 13 days ahead of the Julian calendar, which remained in localized use until 1923.


1914
This year saw the beginning of what became known as World War I, after Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria, heir to the Austrian throne was assassinated by Serbian nationalist Gavrillo Princip. It also saw the first airline to provide scheduled regular commercial passenger services with heavier-than-air aircraft, with the St. Petersburg–Tampa Airboat Line.


1914 (film)
1914 (German: 1914, die letzten Tage vor dem Weltbrand) is a 1931 German drama film directed by Richard Oswald and starring Albert Bassermann, Hermann Wlach and Wolfgang von Schwindt. The film focuses on the leadership of the Great Powers of Europe in the days leading up to the outbreak of the First World War, culminating in the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria by Gavrilo Princip. It was shot at the Babelsberg Studios in Berlin and premiered in the city at the Tauentzien-Palast on 20 January 1931. At the request of the German Foreign Office an introduction by Eugen Fischer-Baling was filmed and presented at the start of the film. A special screening was held at the Reichstag on 3 March 1931.


1914 (game)
1914 was a board wargame published by the Avalon Hill game company in 1968 and designed by James F. Dunnigan. It was a corps-level simulation of the first few weeks of World War I on the Western Front. The game came in an 11" × 14" cardboard box, and included a fold-out, cardboard-backed game map (22" × 28"), German and Allied cardboard counters, a set of dice, game variant cards, a mobilization chart pad for secret deployment, and various charts and instructions including a Battle Manual.


1914 (game)
The game board map was covered by a hex grid to regulate movement. The game scale was 2 days per turn, with approximately 16 km per hex. The map covered the terrain from Mainz, Germany in the east to Le Havre, France in the west, and from the southern portion of the Netherlands in the north to the northern edge of Switzerland in the south. The terrain included major rivers, ridge lines, rough terrain, forest, and the sea. It also displayed the location of cities, fortifications, economic sites, mobilization squares, and railroads. The hex grid was marked with coordinates: numbers running south–north, and letters west–east.


1914 (game)
The various military formations are represented by counters—square pieces of colored cardboard printed with game information. German counters were gray-green (Feldgrau) in hue; the French were pink; British and Dutch brown, and Belgian counters were cyan. Each counter was marked with a standard unit symbol for infantry, cavalry, or artillery. The counter also displayed the unit size (corps, division, brigade, regiment, or battalion), unit designation, and whether it was an active army unit, or reserve, landwehr, etc.


1914 (game), Standard game
The combat ratings of each unit was given in the form of their Attack-Defense-Movement ratings. (German artillery units list their caliber.) Cavalry units had their attack factor in parentheses, indicating they can only attack isolated artillery units. The major (corps) units had a sequence of steps they could lose as a result of combat or lack of supply. At each step loss the Attack and Defense factors were reduced. Thus a German active corps went from a 7-12-3, to 5-10-3, then 4-9-3, and a 2-7-3, before it was finally destroyed. However, each side in the game also received step replacements which could be used to build back up units that had taken losses, as long as the unit was in supply and some distance from an enemy unit.


1914 (game), Standard game
Combat was based on an odds ratio between the attacking units Attack Rating and the defending unit's Defense Rating. The odds ranged from 1-to-4 or less, up to 5-to-1 or more. Different combat results charts were used based on the number of Defense Factors, and the results determined by rolling a six-sided dice. The result was in terms of step losses by each side, with at most one step being lost. Many of the results called for a step loss by both sides, reflecting the heavy attrition incurred throughout this conflict. Defending units in clear terrain that suffered a step loss also had to retreat a hex, or lose a second step.


1914 (game), Standard game
Rules were included for the effects of fortresses. A fortress could be attacked and destroyed by a purely infantry attack. However, the infantry incurred step losses from these attacks and only had a 1 in 6 chance of destroying the fortress. The German side also had the option of using their artillery to destroy a fortress, which frequently improved the odds of success. The most effective artillery, however, was the German railroad guns; since they could never leave rail lines, they were limited in geographic scope.


1914 (game), Standard game
Units could move their indicated movement factor during a turn, with higher movement cost for certain types of terrain. No more than two corps could end their movement in the same hex, and only one corps could defend a hex. The infantry typically had a movement rating of 3, with some reserve units moving 2 per turn. Cavalry units had a movement rating of 4, and artillery could move 2.


1914 (game), Standard game
The basic 1914 system did not include zone of control rules, but did have a supply requirement. Units were in supply as long as a line could be traced through any three contiguous hexes to a friendly railroad line. Enemy units blocked supply lines, but only in the hex they occupied.


1914 (game), Standard game
The game was played in a series of turns, with first the German and then Allied player performing their actions. Each player would receive any reinforcements scheduled for the turn; move any friendly units up to their maximum movement, then initiate combat against adjacent enemy units. (Neither movement nor combat was required, but was at the option of the current player.) If an enemy unit was forced to retreat due to combat, the current player could also advance into the abandoned hexes.


1914 (game), Standard game
Each game began with each player marking on the Mobilization Chart where their forces would initially be deployed. A few units were required to occupy specific hexes, such as French active infantry corps in Toul, Belfort, etc., but the remainder could be placed in any friendly hex. This secret deployment created an element of surprise at the start of the game.


1914 (game), Advanced rules
Once the basic game was mastered, the players could use the advanced rules and options included in the Battle Manual. The main feature of the advanced game was the use of inverted counters. The back side of a counter displayed only a national symbol and a facing arrow. This arrow affected how the unit could move, as it cost a movement factor each time the unit was moved. It also modified the ability of the unit to defend itself. Units attacked from the direction of their facing arrow used their (generally weaker) Attack Factor for defense.


1914 (game), Advanced rules
The advanced game also included special rules for the effect of events on the Eastern Front, where Germany was opposed by Russia. It also included a set of game variation cards that could produce unusual chance effects that might alter the situation.
