| Diplomacy Update - USA Holiday Schedule - cbconnell (Jan 25, 2013, 4:22 pm) |
I had hoped to get a round of play done this week before Wednesday (Thursday is Thanksgiving in the USA and Friday isn't useful for anything), but it doesn't look like it is going to work.
I already have players who are not responding to email requests for orders - and I am still waiting on orders. I don't like handing out NMRs, in particular around holidays when the players may not have control over their ability to play. So, I am suspending the game until Monday, November 26. Our current orders will be due then at the regular time, and any revisions to orders will be welcome until then.
I am sorry that I pressured some of you to get orders in over the last few days... especially when there are people that did not submit their orders at all.
Let's work particularly hard here the next few weeks and get as far along in the games as possible - because we will have this same issue at Christmas/New Years.
Thanks.

Fish are Friends, not Food
We made up for the lack of action last season this time!
England is still alive. France and Italy have struck Germany hard and Germany is looking at two disbands. Italy tried to gain ground in Greece too, but failed. Turkey expected to be attacked in Bulgaria, but the attack never came there... thankfully he was still able to withhold the attack on Greece. Russia?
The only unit needing input for the retreat is Germany in Vienna. You can retreat to Budapest, Bohemia or disband.
Retreat orders will be due by tonight at 8:30 pm (03:30 16-11-12 GMT)
I will get new information out for winter adjustments as soon as I hear from Germany. I will try to run a condensed year next week so we can get our usual season in without affecting the Thanksgiving holiday in the US to much.

Nemo was bouncing on all the jellies this season. There were so many bounces I got dizzy! Despite that, there was a lot of ground that changed hands this year... Everyone gets to either build or remove some units. England did a nice move to remove France from Liverpool, but lost two supply centers in the process. Germany saw some success in the north, but nothing much came of the moves in the south. Italy was bouncing everywhere but has been able to hold on to Eastern Europe. Russia allowed? Turkey into Sevastopol. Perhaps this is his was of hunting? Turkey was able to hold off Italy and Russia and gained three supply centers in the process!
England: Removes ??2 units.France: Builds ?? 1 unit.

Orders are due on Thursday, November 8 at 9:00 am MST (8-11-12 16:00 GMT)
(FYI... one of the reasons we took last week off, and have been a bit slow this week is we have a player who has been away at his parent's house on the east coast of the USA helping them prepare for and clean up after the storms. We have kept the game moving, but hopefully a bit slower to give him time to deal with life - as far as I can tell, they didn't have any serious problems)

Russia: F Baltic Sea - Gulf of Bothnia.

Nemo was spotted... oh wait, I did that joke.
We had some serious game play this time. France made a nice move into Liverpool, around the English Channel. England and Germany fought over Sweden with Germany prevailing. Italy was able to take Bulgaria from Turkey, but Turkey was able to take Rumania. Germany and Russia went all in for Budapest, with Russia taking a beating this time.??
Russia has a choice to make... if Russia retreats to Serbia, Austria looses his only supply center and is out of the game. If Russia decides to disband, Austria plays another year.
England in Sweden can retreat to Norway, Finland or disband, and Russia in??Budapest can retreat to Serbia or disband.Please submit these retreat orders by 8:30 pm MDT Thursday (02:30 26-10-12 GMT)

For Immediate Release...
----------------------------Tsar (real this time) to England: You have a friend and as such I am asking you to move your fleet out of Nwy. This will show that we are together in ridding the world of Germany and it will allow me to get that Stp army into the land war. In exchange you will get my fleet attacking the German fleet in Bal.
----------------------------
Tsar (maybe real maybe not) to Germany: So my friend, what will you cover? Ber, Hol, Bel? Looks to me like your empire will be taking a step or two back this season. Very sad to see. "Note to self" head towards Ber, worth the trade in the long run.
----------------------------
Tsar (yep real one this time) to Italy: Looking good but could use your support in Bud, want some help in Bul? Let us chat over some lemonchello!

??Italy to Russia
I will be attacking vie, with your support I hope and I will reciprocate soon, we have plenty of opportunities to work together but I imagine a German disband would please you.
??----------------------------
France - Germany: Of course I supported Belgium, it was the best move available for both you and for me!??
France - Italy: I appreciate the way you've been moving this year. Am hoping this marks the start of a new relationship between us.
??----------------------------
Lovespuds to Deep Throat: Ooooh, you are a saucy one, aren't you! If Silver Tongue ever trumps on your trump, you can come and begin Phase Two with MY operation any time you like, baby!
----------------------------
The deep throat comment???what the hell does that mean?
??----------------------------
Hi Russia will you support me into vie, you did it once before??? why not again. I am pretty sure we can find a way for me to repay you plus it is in your interests to peg bag the German aggressor.
Love italy
??Hi France. As you can see my fleets are well away. Bel awaits your beneficent liberation, don???t disappoint them. I???m hoping mar and pie plus the associated sea zones can be dmz.
Love Italy
??Hi Germany
Why would you take vie, I???ve been so sweet on my press about you???how could you.??J
Kind regards (not love) from Italy----------------------------
Austria to Germany - Good job taking Vie. Sit tight and hopefully some trouble can be stirred up.??Enjoy the Von Trapp Family singers!
??
Austria to England - Hey there, it's nice to see you loaning Liverpool to France. It's that kind of trust and graciousness that is so often lacking in these contentious games.
??Austria to Russia - I think there's a lot of alliance going on and not enough infighting. You can fix this.
??
Austria to France - If you take the English Channel and Belgium, you're home free.??
Austria to Turkey - You're rather cooked (apologies for the pun) right now, soon to be utterly roasted over the fires of greater powers. Make bold moves, even if they might fail.

We had a break in the Russia/Turkey stalemate... kind of. ??Let's see what happens there next, shall we? Austria and Italy are still going at it too- Austria just hasn't gone away like people had planed. France has landed on the shores of England, even while England held's it's own in Sweden.??

For Immediate Release...
----------------------------------------
Deep Throat to Silver Tongue: Phase Two of our operation is beginning, you know we gonna come up trumps baby!
----------------------------------------
England to France:
I must admit your moves are very alarming, ecpecially vacating Brest and heading to NAO.
However I'm taking my chances and hope this doesn't mean your'e heading towards me, as this will ruin
both of us. I will vacate Eng per your request hoping for the good.
----------------------------------------
Italy to turkey
There
is little to gain from you propping up ah and further boxing yourself
in. Allow me into gre and I will reciprocate by helping you into Serbia.
We can
renegotiate from there. I pose no threat to Smyrna.
??
Italy to France
Please
feel free to dmz mar/pie area. I have shown my good will and changed
direction. By doing this we both have security, you can reclaim full
control over
Bur and you leave mar free for a build should I ever play dirty.
??
Italy to Germany
Please
get out of my backyard! Don???t even think of taking vie, or I will
seriously consider removing you from my Christmas Card list.
??
Italy to Russia
Let???s still be friends!
??
Italy to England
Well done. Heligoland looks nice, bel looks even better, plus fra would probably like channel dmz!
----------------------------------------
Germany to England. Honestly I
had assumed someone had mimicked you there, since Germany attacking
Russia while England masses in Scandinavia is pretty silly... if you're
Germany anyhow. ??Perhaps you felt the same about spreading yourself into
Russia. Well you have made your choice, as much as I don't agree with
the long term planning. I hope it wasn't Italy's self-serving diplomacy
that influenced you. I will try to keep them both busy as long as I can,
let me know if you have a change of heart.
Germany
to France. It seems there isn't to be a three way, and now I ask you to
look beyond the short term. Russia is going to be pretty well off soon,
I guess I should be screaming "board leader! board leader!". Hopefully
you wait a little while at least to see how things work out. ??Italy
talks about me as the "task at hand" as though I am a threat to anyone
other than him, so I am hopeful that you will leave me alone enough to
continue to annoy him at least. ??As much as I want Austria to be in
this, I still think it is too late, and now dealing with England I won't
be able to help him much. ??You know where I hope you planted your
fleet, although the west coast of England is pretty miserable in the
fall from what I hear. Italy has moved away from you because he has
other issues now (Austria is now playing), but I wouldn't take my eye
off him. And Oh My do I ever hope you supported Belgium.
Germany
to Turkey. ??I'm hoping you stay the course. ??Russia can't move for
another season or two at least, as long as you don't change plans, and
he has now been given free reign everywhere else.----------------------------------------

Sorry about this, However I don't think this is much of a surprise as I did say I prefer Sweden over Stp/Mos.
Anyway I would be happy to help?? you with StP or Mos, this is up to you.
??England to France:
As you can see There was no bounce. I'm ready to leave Eng Ch if that will make you happy.No problem. Let's keep our good relations.
--------------------------------
From the ???silver tongue???-I???m flattered!
???the Italian fleets will not give up their advantage in the west.?????As you can see, I have and moved elsewhere. Now France and eng untangle yourselves and attend to the pressing matter at hand!
Best wishes to all especially Germany for taking the press in the spirit it was intended.
--------------------------------Austria to Russia/Turkey - you guys are just stalling each other, figure it out. I don't intend to agitate either of you, but I'd like to keep Greece (would Turkish support be possible?), at least for Fall before I turn the fleet against Italy.
Austria to Germany - I'd like support in Venice, but I'd also rather you have Vienna than Italy, and I don't think Russia's in a position to steal that from Italy. Your choice, although I would lean towards support since I can't do much with just a fleet.
Austria to Italy - if you have??a better plan than attempting to push through me, then I'll hear it. Otherwise, game on.

For Immediate Release....--------------------------------------Germany to the silver tongue. Well this part is true anyway: ??"no doubt laced with no small degree of self-interest and a slightly anarchic and mischievous desire to stir up a hornet???s nest."
Germany to England and France. ??A western triple it has been called, which sits well with me. It has emerged out of the need to counter the Austrian nmrs, and Italian aggression against France, but I say let's go with what we have been given.??The map we are looking at now may tell a different story, but I am hoping you have seen fit to give this a try. The "bear" that I referred to will emerge very quickly if I am forced to turn around, and the Italian fleets will not give up their advantage in the west. To refer to me as the board leader is laughable. ??I know that Italy is not so blind as to miss the clear advantage that the Austrian nmrs have given both he and Russia, although he will certainly try to convince you otherwise.
--------------------------------------
France - England: Either we will have bounced in NAO, or I will have occupied it. I'm getting a bit nervous about the presence of your fleet in ENG, it's causing me to worry that you've a lightening attack on MAO planned for this year, hence the bounce that I'm half-expecting (or rather, fearing the consequences of not making). Let me know your thoughts - assuming I've taken NAO, I'm happy to move my fleet from there.
France - Germany: Thanks for your understanding regarding Bur. I'm manoevring for defence this year, seeing whether Italy is serious or whether he's lying in his public statements, and trying to cover my back door from the north. Let's talk more before the autumn moves.

| DC436 Additional Press - cbconnell (Jan 25, 2013, 3:52 pm) |
I have been asked to send out additional press before these orders are due. ??I will??accept??press THIS TURN ONLY until 4:00 pm MDT (22:00 GMT) today.
For Immediate Release....
------------------------
Italy to all- a comment on Germany???s recent press.One of the great things about diplomacy is the discussion, and in this gunboat, my first, it is even more fun as one can see the spin in public. Many excessively subjective diplomatic offers fall into two categories. Either they are a reflection that the player is poor, or that he/she thinks the recipient of their missive is poor. Germany has played so well his latest must certainly be the latter. He conveniently forgets to mention that whilst he is negotiating a western triple that leaves him free to gain advantage in the east it is only made possible by the biddability (not a real word but it should be) of his two smaller and slower growing neighbours. He also forgets to mention he is the largest power on the board, in addition he has the greatest capacity for growth.
Closer examination of his reasoning does not stand up to scrutiny.?????I wonder where those "two or three" centres that Italy talks about will come from.?????Germany has managed to negotiate both a vacant nts and a vacant bur (Any German who can do both deserves some kind of diplomatic award-my metaphorical hat is doffed!) this frees up his units to head elsewhere. Mun, hol and ber, plus fleet bal can all head east. I would expect those 2-3 gains to come from Warsaw and perhaps vie in the first instance. Remember Russia can only defend war by abandoning sc???s which are adjacent to potentially hostile forces. ??In addition he comments,?????Please consider what releasing that bear would do?????is surely some sort of gag. Russia is pinned down in the south with turkey, what units he does have are all tied up in retaining his gains thus far leaving only one unit, a war, with any flexibility. It???s not a bear but a cub (no offence Russia it???s just the way the board has fallen). By taking stp and leaving swe alone England may well precipitate a Russian collapse which will probably be more profitable to the already largest nation on the board than himself. By letting Russia off the hook for now it will hardly release a bear, but may well restrict the growth of the German. Consider which centres are more accessible to England-Moscow Warsaw sev, OR hol bel den? And who poses the greatest lead and possibility of winning at the moment Russia or Germany?
I???m trying to impose sound reasoning based on the board, no doubt laced with no small degree of self-interest and a slightly anarchic and mischievous desire to stir up a hornet???s nest. Dear Germany don???t take it personally I mean no offence I genuinely think you???re playing a superb game and are deservedly winning, the move to tyr was inspired. I hope at the end we can see who we all are and maybe play some other dip together in the future.
??
Italy to FranceOur last press release came out simultaneously and said almost exactly the same thing. I will withdraw to the east, and hope you will match this yourself. We have more to gain by not engaging in a pointless my fleet versus your fleet stalemate which benefits others more than us. F wms will retreat and I will head elsewhere. As for your intentions re Germany and working with eng that is up to you and your reading of the board. Bur will make you safer, put to good use your armies, restrict the growth of the board???s largest power and give some flexibility in the future. Or we can simply fight it out, you may well win??? one thing is for sure I certainly won???t win but I love the diplomacy all the same.

Hi France
Is there any way we can disentangle ourselves? We are heading for a stalemate and Germany are heading for an easy ride. I can use my fleets more productively securing Greece or getting tri, Germany will be delighted to see us locking horns. I???m in a position as Italy to be flexible and switch east rather than west. What will your gains be while Germany continues to rampage? Tun? I out number you in fleets but ultimately you will make gains but they will be much slower than your neighbour???s gain? In a year or two when Germany is 2-3 centres stronger and you are maybe one centre better off you will rue the day you gave him an easy ride. Cut a deal with eng and move on ger.??Six of his seven centres are coastal, yet he has only one fleet to your combined force of five.
As a gesture of good will I will withdraw my fleets, dmz wms naf gol. Let me (and everyone else) know your thoughts
Italy

France to Italy?
I'm not interested in 'playing everybody else's game', I'm just trying to defend myself against you in what I think is the best way I can in a gunboat game. You've displayed hostile moves to me since winter 01, I take defensive action against you whilst recovering from an admittedly poor set of autumn 01 moves, and now you accuse me of 'letting my tummy get rubbed' by Germany? I take it your attacking me rather than acting directly against Germany is completely different, is it?
If you're serious about wanting to do something about Germany's growth, then I suggest you stop attacking me (both in press and on the board, 'dude' and come up with some constructive suggestions as to how that might be achieved.??
France to Germany:
I'd appreciate it if you didn't move to Bur this turn. There's no need for you to do this - I think you may have enough on your plate otherwise.
