Austria-Hungary seemed to love Dum-Dum-bullets. Actually they are doing you a favor, because they are a more human way to kill. Not sure why they are forbidden.

And Desert keep going! Dont let the downvoter upset you. (You surely dont).
Just a small thing, but how about adding pictures of the frontline? Would make it more interesting for map-freaks like me and/or people who are not familiar with Romanian geography.
And maybe add more about casualities and such.

Alexandru Averescu was officialy moved on the command of the Second Army to the Third Army, situated on the Danube-Dobrogea front.The Second Army is now under the control of Grigore Grainiceanu.
Skirmishes along the entire West front.378 prisoniers made.
Operations alongside the Dobrogea front.An Enemy attack was reppeled alongside the Danube,8 german cannons were captured.

(1.As wiki states ''The Hague Convention of 1899, Declaration III prohibits the use of expanding bullets in international warfare. This is often incorrectly believed to be prohibited by the Geneva Conventions, but it significantly predates those conventions, and is in fact a continuance of the Declaration of St Petersburg in 1868, which banned exploding projectiles of less than 400 grams.''
But i think it's because those bullet just entred in someone's body, but didnt get out, making hard problems for medics .

2.About mapping, im workingin my little free time (cause now, school tries to capture it all .But maps will be made, showing the situation of each Romanian army week by week.

3.About reports of casualties.The newspaper of that time [on which i relly most] dont always show the statistics.But it will be shown if i found them

4.Didn't care about downvotters.Actually, I dont get it how the votting sistem works propelly XD

5.Big thanks for the Felinist suporters who read my articles, and on the others who do the same.This make me known the fact that there is people who like my work )

didn't Ottomans also sent a small battalion to Bulgaria to help against Romanians? just wondering if that's true or if it was purely German/Austro-Hungarian/Bulgarian troops.

No. actually its a more human kill. Sure they are supposed to not leave the body, but they also leave a greater wound-channel, increasing the chances of a shock and greater bleeding. So they are still in use in hunting and sporting.
The reason why they are forbidden is that Germany dicked out about the UK using them. They are kinda OP on shorter ranges.
