| DC 293: F1909 Adjudication - AceRimmer (Mar 11, 2010, 10:27 am) |
It's like the meeting of the Union Pacific and Central Pacific railroads... only, it's the meeting of the Russian and Turkish fleets off the coast of Brittany. To celebrate, Celine Dion sang from the bow of each ship. It was a very touching ceremony.
Adjustments are due tomorrow (no retreats!). France has a disband. Russia and Turkey each have a build. England has time on his hands to perhaps build that bower in the garden he's always wanted.
There is an 2-way RT end of game proposal on the table for next Monday. For the impatient among you, I will agree to adjudicate that vote early *if* y'all give me a vote clearly marked "Final".
Regardless of votes, I strongly advise each of you to submit S1910 orders just in case!

Charles,
I like the idea of giving Austria more incentive to move east instead of west. Another buffer on the Russo-Polish border is a good idea both ways, taking pressure off both and allowing both to consider moving elsewhere. Is the idea behind extending Moscow to the White Sea an opportunity to give Russia more space from which to invade Sweden?

Nigs,
well, I'm not sure this change makes Swabia less of a bottleneck (which don't have a particular issue with). Had I chosen to have Franconia border Hesse, then yes. But I didn't want to make the HRE have the makings of a doughnut, with Hesse/Franconia being the hole. That's why I added the territory of the Würzburg bishopric to Swabia (i.e. that salient towards Saxony).
For Austria I'd say this change is a mixed blessing. It somewhat complicates Austria's opening game, which I welcome. Getting three SCs in 1649 struck me as being too easy in the past. Bavaria can't help Austria into Saxony (and vice versa). This in turn makes Austria more dependent on support from pretty one single source of minor power support in Germany, namely Swabia. And that makes the job of those interested in curbing Austrian growth quite a bit easier since successfully competing for DPs in Swabia will most likely slow down the Emperor.
So I understand this change to be about recalibrating Austria's influence in the Empire as compared to those of others.
Also, the change down in Turkey might also tempt Austria more into a Balkan direction. After all, now that Damascus and Constantinople are no longer adjacent, A Damascus can no longer more to Constantinople in an effort to back up A Belgrade if need be. In other words, Belgrade is more vulnerable. Next to the opportunity this gives rise to for Austria, it also might have Turkey move into Hungary more precisely in order to check that danger.
In this regard, Fraconia also complicates home defence since if A Prague moved to Saxony or Franconia, it'd be somewhat less useful in fending off a Turkish raid.
Much as the Sultan may worry more about Belgrade, so does a Russian move into Armenia present more of a headache now thanks to Damascus and Constantinople no longer covering another. More of a temptation for the Tsar to go south, but also for the Sultan to move into Armenia precisely because of this danger. All in all, this makes early Russo-Turkish conflict rather more likely, methinks.
And that in turn had me thinking whether I ought to somewhat ease the home defence burden on Russia. Say by adding a buffer province between Nov, Mos, Vor, WRu and Smo. Another idea would be to extend Moscow up to the White Sea (i.e. Russia's northern shore), while adding a buffer between Novgorod, Karelia and Moscow, so that a Swedish move into Karelia wouldn't border both Novgorod and Moscow at the same time.
Considering also a number of other approaches, but decided to hold off of them for now.
Cheers,
Charles

I like the effect of Franconia and the prussian changes. Franconia in particular should help to avoid blockades in middle germany. I don't know turkey's territories well enough to comment on those.

Hey all,
First off, we've had a busy turn with lots of moves sent in by several players. So make sure I have your most updated orders listed (Hopefully I got 'em all right). One player, however, didn't send in any moves, so the german forces are in civil disorder again. In general though, the western deadlock continues.
The East more than makes up for the lack of movement in the west, as Five(!) centers change ownership. The french unit in Vie seems to be playing the mercenary and helping the highest bidder, this time helping the austrians into Budapest. Russia loses that center, but waltzes into Bulgaria. The Italians take Trieste without support, and defend Greece and Serbia. The balance of power has definately shifted. Turkey tries valiantly to defend his lands, but under seige from all sides it appears to be an uphill battle.
Only one retreat this time around, though. Russian Army Bud has to retreat, and Gal's the only open spot. So I moved him there. Nick, if you want otb, let me know. Retreat changes and build/removals due tomorrow at 15:00 GMT.
Thanks All

Oh, those German units. Always a big question of whether they'll move or not. Also, good job on defying elimination, Matt, even if it came at my expense.

Hey all,
First off, we've had a busy turn with lots of moves sent in by several players. So make sure I have your most updated orders listed (Hopefully I got 'em all right). One player, however, didn't send in any moves, so the german forces are in civil disorder again. In general though, the western deadlock continues.
The East more than makes up for the lack of movement in the west, as Five(!) centers change ownership. The french unit in Vie seems to be playing the mercenary and helping the highest bidder, this time helping the austrians into Budapest. Russia loses that center, but waltzes into Bulgaria. The Italians take Trieste without support, and defend Greece and Serbia. The balance of power has definately shifted. Turkey tries valiantly to defend his lands, but under seige from all sides it appears to be an uphill battle.
Only one retreat this time around, though. Russian Army Bud has to retreat, and Gal's the only open spot. So I moved him there. Nick, if you want otb, let me know. Retreat changes and build/removals due tomorrow at 15:00 GMT.
Thanks All
John

Charles,
The overall trend with these changes and the ones you already made in the Med are to limit stalemates. It also slows thrusts to some degree, which is fine and in keeping with the game. Specifically, all of the ones that Nigs mentioned - Franconia and the Prussias - seem good to me. Making Turkey non-contiguous influences it to move east and west instead of to the Balkans - is this what you want? With regard to changes in Russia, I would consider splitting Novgorod to facilitate an attack on Sweden... and I would also break up NRG. The possibility of NRG C Sco - Nov amounts to a sort of long-range blitzkrieg unseen anywhere else on the map. (My issue is more about consistency than historical accuracy.)

Hi All,
A quick FYI (or reminder to those who already know): I am currently
on vacation (since 3/10), and besides this 15 minute Internet window,
I will have NO Internet access until 3/21.
At that time I will try my best to respond to everyone who contacts me!
Thanks, and I'll be thinking of you all while I soak up sun on the beach

Hi guys,
of course I got my dates mixed up. The 22nd is a Monday, so we'll stick to Mondays for now.
Been working on the map lately and decided to imploment another three changes (though I have more ideas I'm pondering over):
1) FRANCONIA: I created this buffer province (named after the imperial circle of Franconia) between Bavaria, Saxony, Swabia and Prague. Complicates Austria's conquest of German SCs somewhat, makes Austria's position arguably less compact and generally provides more room for manoeuvre.
2) KARAMAN: Renamed the Tekke buffer province and had it border Armenia. Makes Turkey an non-contiguous power, which has considerable repercussions for Turkey's opening and home defence.
3) ROYAL PRUSSIA: Split Greater Poland into Royal Prussia and Greater Poland proper. So what was previously known simply as Prussia, also had to be renamed and now is listed as Ducal Prussia (more current a term for this age than "East Prussia" . Anyway, creates a somewhat broader front to fight on in that area.
Closely looking at carving out another buffer province in Northern Germany (either called Altmark or Magdeburg). Similarly pondering over altering adjacencies in Russia.
Here's the map for v3.2, the latest version:
Becoming ever more different from our current game's 3.0 version...
Cheers,

Nigs,
well, I'm not sure this change makes Swabia less of a bottleneck (which don't have a particular issue with). Had I chosen to have Franconia border Hesse, then yes. But I didn't want to make the HRE have the makings of a doughnut, with Hesse/Franconia being the hole. That's why I added the territory of the Würzburg bishopric to Swabia (i.e. that salient towards Saxony).
For Austria I'd say this change is a mixed blessing. It somewhat complicates Austria's opening game, which I welcome. Getting three SCs in 1649 struck me as being too easy in the past. Bavaria can't help Austria into Saxony (and vice versa). This in turn makes Austria more dependent on support from pretty one single source of minor power support in Germany, namely Swabia. And that makes the job of those interested in curbing Austrian growth quite a bit easier since successfully competing for DPs in Swabia will most likely slow down the Emperor.
So I understand this change to be about recalibrating Austria's influence in the Empire as compared to those of others.
Also, the change down in Turkey might also tempt Austria more into a Balkan direction. After all, now that Damascus and Constantinople are no longer adjacent, A Damascus can no longer more to Constantinople in an effort to back up A Belgrade if need be. In other words, Belgrade is more vulnerable. Next to the opportunity this gives rise to for Austria, it also might have Turkey move into Hungary more precisely in order to check that danger.
In this regard, Fraconia also complicates home defence since if A Prague moved to Saxony or Franconia, it'd be somewhat less useful in fending off a Turkish raid.
Much as the Sultan may worry more about Belgrade, so does a Russian move into Armenia present more of a headache now thanks to Damascus and Constantinople no longer covering another. More of a temptation for the Tsar to go south, but also for the Sultan to move into Armenia precisely because of this danger. All in all, this makes early Russo-Turkish conflict rather more likely, methinks.
And that in turn had me thinking whether I ought to somewhat ease the home defence burden on Russia. Say by adding a buffer province between Nov, Mos, Vor, WRu and Smo. Another idea would be to extend Moscow up to the White Sea (i.e. Russia's northern shore), while adding a buffer between Novgorod, Karelia and Moscow, so that a Swedish move into Karelia wouldn't border both Novgorod and Moscow at the same time.
Considering also a number of other approaches, but decided to hold off of them for now.
Cheers,
Charles

Charles,
I like the idea of giving Austria more incentive to move east instead of west. Another buffer on the Russo-Polish border is a good idea both ways, taking pressure off both and allowing both to consider moving elsewhere. Is the idea behind extending Moscow to the White Sea an opportunity to give Russia more space from which to invade Sweden?

Ah, if you guys think the extra buffer has merit, I guess I'll draw a map for you to comment upon. Would move Poland and Russia further apart.
As for redrawing Moscow to touch NRG and add that buffer, yes, it'd broaden the front in the far north. Nov would be not the one province through which Russian units have to pass to get at Sweden. But it'd be a slow developing attack - as I consider appropriate for the Northern wilderness. And of course, the Danes could descend on Moscow rather than on Novgorod...

Is the idea behind extending Moscow to the White Sea an opportunity to give Russia more space from which to invade Sweden?

[quote:497e7fd61f] Nigs,
well, I'm not sure this change makes Swabia less of a bottleneck (which don't have a particular issue with). Had I chosen to have Franconia border Hesse, then yes. But I didn't want to make the HRE have the makings of a doughnut, with Hesse/Franconia being the hole. That's why I added the territory of the Würzburg bishopric to Swabia (i.e. that salient towards Saxony).
For Austria I'd say this change is a mixed blessing. It somewhat complicates Austria's opening game, which I welcome. Getting three SCs in 1649 struck me as being too easy in the past. Bavaria can't help Austria into Saxony (and vice versa). This in turn makes Austria more dependent on support from pretty one single source of minor power support in Germany, namely Swabia. And that makes the job of those interested in curbing Austrian growth quite a bit easier since successfully competing for DPs in Swabia will most likely slow down the Emperor.
So I understand this change to be about recalibrating Austria's influence in the Empire as compared to those of others.
Also, the change down in Turkey might also tempt Austria more into a Balkan direction. After all, now that Damascus and Constantinople are no longer adjacent, A Damascus can no longer more to Constantinople in an effort to back up A Belgrade if need be. In other words, Belgrade is more vulnerable. Next to the opportunity this gives rise to for Austria, it also might have Turkey move into Hungary more precisely in order to check that danger.
In this regard, Fraconia also complicates home defence since if A Prague moved to Saxony or Franconia, it'd be somewhat less useful in fending off a Turkish raid.
Much as the Sultan may worry more about Belgrade, so does a Russian move into Armenia present more of a headache now thanks to Damascus and Constantinople no longer covering another. More of a temptation for the Tsar to go south, but also for the Sultan to move into Armenia precisely because of this danger. All in all, this makes early Russo-Turkish conflict rather more likely, methinks.
And that in turn had me thinking whether I ought to somewhat ease the home defence burden on Russia. Say by adding a buffer province between Nov, Mos, Vor, WRu and Smo. Another idea would be to extend Moscow up to the White Sea (i.e. Russia's northern shore), while adding a buffer between Novgorod, Karelia and Moscow, so that a Swedish move into Karelia wouldn't border both Novgorod and Moscow at the same time.
Considering also a number of other approaches, but decided to hold off of them for now.
Cheers,
Charles

Ah, if you guys think the extra buffer has merit, I guess I'll draw a map for you to comment upon. Would move Poland and Russia further apart.
As for redrawing Moscow to touch NRG and add that buffer, yes, it'd broaden the front in the far north. Nov would be not the one province through which Russian units have to pass to get at Sweden. But it'd be a slow developing attack - as I consider appropriate for the Northern wilderness. And of course, the Danes could descend on Moscow rather than on Novgorod...

The overall trend with these changes and the ones you already made in the Med are to limit stalemates.
Well, I'd say the East-West confrontation we've seen in the present game presents something of an anomaly. Yet I indeed am aiming for more fluid play. The most important step here was to reduce the victory criterion to 15. The second-most important one the reworking of the Central Med.
It also slows thrusts to some degree, which is fine and in keeping with the game.
Well, my aim is to keep the map very integrated. I want to keep players even more on their toes.
Specifically, all of the ones that Nigs mentioned - Franconia and the Prussias - seem good to me. Making Turkey non-contiguous influences it to move east and west instead of to the Balkans - is this what you want?
Don't think that A Damascus was going to march straight into the Balkans in the old versions either. But it could provide backup to A Belgrade and hence that very possibility somewhat diminished the attractiveness of a South-Eastern thrust by Austria.
A Damascus can really turn into any direction:
- Karaman gives you a play for Candia and some protection against first-year attacks vs. Constantinople.
- Armenia also allows one to cover Constantinople, covers a "soft spot" and presents a possible play for the Crimea or Voronezh.
- Azerbaijan is somewhat similar to an Armenian opening, but probably not much of an opening move.
- Persia is obviously the "grow now" option.
- Egypt presents a play for Tunis. More attractive now that F Sevilla is somewhat less of an immediate factor.
I'm liking the added incentives for moves to Egypt and Armenia.
With regard to changes in Russia, I would consider splitting Novgorod to facilitate an attack on Sweden...
That one of the ideas I'm looking at. Carving out a norther buffer out of Novgorod, while also extending Moscow to the northern shore.
and I would also break up NRG. The possibility of NRG C Sco - Nov amounts to a sort of long-range blitzkrieg unseen anywhere else on the map. (My issue is more about consistency than historical accuracy.)
Ah, until I reached v2.5, NRG indeed didn't border Novgorod. Here's the 2.0 map (which is basically where I had left things off in 2004, the new work in 2009 began with v2.1 which was already an entirely different beast):
Yet this type of map arrangement created kinda a D-W-R string rather than a genuine "Arctic triangle". I wanted Denmark (and indeed England, then an "Arctic quadrangle" to be able to attack Russia (and vice versa). Makes for better gameplay and is also historically justified.
Indeed, only up there can one power "leapfrog" two basically closer powers to attack the another. I like that a lot!
But there's another reason why I'm showing you this mothballed old map version. It shows you an arrangement of Poland's buffer provinces in the East (save for Polotsk, which I introduced with v2.1) I'm now once again considering. Moscow is, as you can see, shielded by the Smolensk buffer (which corresponds to the territory Poland lost to Russia later in the 17th century)).

I understand that Alan Callahamer, the inventor of Diplomacy (and someone I had the honor to meet at Weasel Moot II in Chicago) was known to have said that in a perfectly played game of diplomacy by perfect players, no power would ever be eliminated and the game would never end but by 7-way draw.
I happen to think that this greatest of games was not designed so perfectly as to make such an outcome feasible even among perfect players, but I get his point.
So in that regard, we are playing a pretty good game, and for the reasons i think he was driving at -- the alliances have shifted quickly in response to any player's seeming good fortune -- a reality I observe only too well of late.

Folks,
So Mike is now on vacation, so we'll be off for the next 10 days. Sorry for that insane waiting amount. I'll let "ya'll" know when we're back and we'll have a full week deadline all over again.
Hail Caesar/God-King/Pharoah/Citizen/Whatever Carthage called its leader,

"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. and sometimes you didn't want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing. The shadow, even the darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you - That meant something. Even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't. They kept going because they were holding onto something."
"What are we holding onto, Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth fighting for."[Reply] |
