| DC 463, Game Over - persuader (Apr 07, 2014, 8:09 am) |
This was a fun, frustrating and also interesting game. I had an alliance with England and good relations with Italy. IF we had been able to subdue Germany more quickly who knows how this might have turned out - I swear Germany had esp or hacked into our computers because he seemed to know our every strategy and countered them all quite nicely. By the time Germany was conquered a stalemate had set in - and with that frustration comes the usual disagreement as to how to proceed. I made a grab for Italian centers which caused England to attack me. Around that same time Archer
(Russia) lost interest or got too busy to play and that hurt us all. Had Russia declared for someone or some strategy things might have been different. Mike's stepping in to play Russia was great, he was a voice of reason and breathed some new life into the game. Too bad he is a Mets fan! I thought everyone played well, Simon stabbed me twice but did so politely and always stayed in touch. Lucas took advantage of his opportunities and might have gotten the win had he been bolder. Thanks to everyone - especially our esteemed game master Warren. Well done.

It seems just in time, as interest in this game has clearly waned. The four way draw has passed. Italy has managed a survival.
End of game statements are welcome of course. I always enjoy reading them.

Hi All,Thanks for allowing me to help bring the game to a close. It was fun discussing the game and trying to come up with a good conclusion.Must admit, dealing with Simon was confusing --- but only because he is GMing another game I'm in and I got the games flipped in my head at times. 
Good Job to everyone.
Light Brigade --- Charge!

I am surprised that the draw proposal has gone through. I thought Lucas would push on for a bit longer to see if he could force a mistake from the coalition, or at least eliminate Alfred. I'm pleased with the outcome though as I feel everyone deserves to get something from the game. We have all played well and I've enjoyed every part of the game. Thanks for a good one, Jake, Lucas, Mike and Alfred.
It was an odd one in the early stages. Jake and I formed an alliance right from the beginning and I felt very comfortable working with him. this was a relief as I hate playing England and the slow growth and constant bickering with the neighbours unsettles me. We hit the Low Countries early but Germany fought back hard and it took us a long time to gain the upper hand, and it was really only the intervention of Archer as Russia that brought him down. Archer... Archer... I made lots of mistakes with Archer- he took a pounding early on and really should have fallen first, but I was persuaded by Italy that we needed Russia to survive in order to hold up the Turk. Accordingly, I held off attacking Russia and he rewarded me with a stab and a nuisance war in Scandinavia. We then went through several rounds of forming new E-R pacts, which we both ended up breaking at various points. I think on balance it was 2 stabs each. I could never understand why R didn't hit back at Turkey and why Turkey didn't ever go for the kill against Russia. I guess for a while it suited Lucas to use Archer as a buffer against the northern powers.
Italy looked like a front runner early on and everyone rallied around to peg him back. For a while I thought this gave me a chance of a win for myself, but I felt that Turkey always had better prospects so I decided to play for a draw from about 1905 onwards. The balance of power was shaping up to be E-I-F against the R-T alliance but then Jake hit Italy against all advice. That was then I felt I had to go for it and attack France- this was partly to explore whether I could engineer something for myself, but mainly to prevent Jake getting strong enough that he could partner with Russia to take me down. The downside was that I lost a good friend and Italy rather petulantly declared that because of MY actions (not French actions against him...) he would help Turkey win the game. I didn't understand this at all as in effect I was coming to his aid.
Attacking France and having my ongoing wars with Archer in Scandinavia made me very vulnerable. I was very afraid of a F-R alliance which could have destroyed me. Fortunately this was when Archer lost interest so this doom scenario never arose. When Mike joined the game the agenda was clear- Turkey would win if E-F-R couldn't work together. I think Jake took some persuading,but he bravely trusted me to behave myself and we were able to rapidly throw up a stalemate position. Thanks to Mike for stepping in and being the voice of reason.
Everyone played well, but I thought Lucas played especially well. The use of the Russian shield was excellent and his repeated attempts to goad me into attacking Russia at the end were well thought out. It's a shame we never got the chance for our units to stand toe to toe and fight it out. Maybe in another game we can battle it out.
Thanks to Warren for GMing. It is a tricky task at the best of times, but when RP blows up on you it gets really difficult.

This was a fun, frustrating and also interesting game. I had an alliance with England and good relations with Italy. IF we had been able to subdue Germany more quickly who knows how this might have turned out - I swear Germany had esp or hacked into our computers because he seemed to know our every strategy and countered them all quite nicely. By the time Germany was conquered a stalemate had set in - and with that frustration comes the usual disagreement as to how to proceed. I made a grab for Italian centers which caused England to attack me. Around that same time Archer
(Russia) lost interest or got too busy to play and that hurt us all. Had Russia declared for someone or some strategy things might have been different. Mike's stepping in to play Russia was great, he was a voice of reason and breathed some new life into the game. Too bad he is a Mets fan! I thought everyone played well, Simon stabbed me twice but did so politely and always stayed in touch. Lucas took advantage of his opportunities and might have gotten the win had he been bolder. Thanks to everyone - especially our esteemed game master Warren. Well done.

Lucas makes a good point about me changing the game. I have taken over MANY positions in my Dip life -- a couple years ago, I was invited to play the Annual Dip Invitational based on taking the most active Light Brigader.
One thing I have always desired was the ability to read all past correspondence from the original player, and step into their shoes. Literally, method-act as the replaced player. Whatever strategies were apparant from the conversations would continue to be carried out; all alliances stand, all enemies stay enemies -- even if personally, I'd choose to take a different path.
But there is no way to capture and publish all email communications unless the GM is in the loop. Even then, the moral questions of reading personal emails arise.
So, we deal with replacements who come in with their own agendas, and disrupt the game flow. Sometimes we are lauded for our efforts, other times we are loathed.
Such is the lot of ---- The Light Brigade!
Ride On!Michael

End of game statement Turkey:
This was my first game on DC but I played about 90 games on German sides. I was very happy to play Turkey. Because Turkey is a country that in the beginning needs no close ally so I was sure that I could play it well in a foreign language.
The start was a bit strange. Archer offered Austria and me an Eastern triple. I didn`t believed him and I decided to ally with Austria and to attack Russia from the start. Archer took it very good and offered me an alliance again when I would only take Sev and Rum and leave Mos and War to him. This was really good agreement and so I accepted it. The start of the west was very confuse. There was no clear leading alliance. E/F came out 1902, I think.
I became more and more worried about my first ally Austria. The moves were played like a Trieste treaty. So I said that to Jason and Alfred. Alfred said yes there was such a treaty declared and Jason said no. So I expected an attack on me from Austria and negotiated very hard with Italy. Italy and I found a solution and so we attacked Austria together and it was the typical Austrian first-out. At this point everybody warned me because Italy became so strong but I think the Turkish position was as good as the Italian position. One center less is not so unusual for an early Turkey. I decided to push further on with Italy as my main ally and Russia as my junior partner.
But then the point came that Italy didn`t answer anymore because of private reasons. I thought it was to dangerous to play with a silent ally and attacked him. The stab beated him very hard and made me to the leader. The situation was now: good working E/F-alliance with small I against big T with small R/G. In this situation I expected a 3-way-draw because the stalemate was safe and talked to Jake and Simon about that. Now France attacked Italy to end the game and because of that England attacked France. I think it was well played from France but a mistake from England. E/F was as strong as T and the French actions had forced me in a 3-way-draw but after the English stab there was a real possibility for a Turkish solo victory. France and Italy declared to help me to win. Russia was still my ally.
Then Archer went out of the game and this was the moment were everything changed. Mike came in as a good player and I had no possibility to convince him to work against England like Archer did. France declared that he is now against me. Italy declared that he is now neutral. All because of the change in Russia that rescued the English position. I would be very interested how the game had ended with Archer.
Under this circumstances I played for a 3-way-draw. If I look at the end position the logical result is a E/F/T-draw. England can take Russia out very easily. There is no danger for a Turkish solo victory but Simon signaled me that he wouldn`t do that so I accepted the draw. I again don`t understand Englands point of view. Was it a gap of courage? Was it not having the diplomatic control alone? Maybe you can explain it to me, Simon. If I had played England I had taken Russia out.
All in all it was a very interesting game and definitly not my last one on DC. Thanky to everybody especially to Warren for GMing.

End of game statement Turkey:
This was my first game on DC but I played about 90 games on German sides. I was very happy to play Turkey. Because Turkey is a country that in the beginning needs no close ally so I was sure that I could play it well in a foreign language.
The start was a bit strange. Archer offered Austria and me an Eastern triple. I didn`t believed him and I decided to ally with Austria and to attack Russia from the start. Archer took it very good and offered me an alliance again when I would only take Sev and Rum and leave Mos and War to him. This was really good agreement and so I accepted it. The start of the west was very confuse. There was no clear leading alliance. E/F came out 1902, I think.
I became more and more worried about my first ally Austria. The moves were played like a Trieste treaty. So I said that to Jason and Alfred. Alfred said yes there was such a treaty declared and Jason said no. So I expected an attack on me from Austria and negotiated very hard with Italy. Italy and I found a solution and so we attacked Austria together and it was the typical Austrian first-out. At this point everybody warned me because Italy became so strong but I think the Turkish position was as good as the Italian position. One center less is not so unusual for an early Turkey. I decided to push further on with Italy as my main ally and Russia as my junior partner.
But then the point came that Italy didn`t answer anymore because of private reasons. I thought it was to dangerous to play with a silent ally and attacked him. The stab beated him very hard and made me to the leader. The situation was now: good working E/F-alliance with small I against big T with small R/G. In this situation I expected a 3-way-draw because the stalemate was safe and talked to Jake and Simon about that. Now France attacked Italy to end the game and because of that England attacked France. I think it was well played from France but a mistake from England. E/F was as strong as T and the French actions had forced me in a 3-way-draw but after the English stab there was a real possibility for a Turkish solo victory. France and Italy declared to help me to win. Russia was still my ally.
Then Archer went out of the game and this was the moment were everything changed. Mike came in as a good player and I had no possibility to convince him to work against England like Archer did. France declared that he is now against me. Italy declared that he is now neutral. All because of the change in Russia that rescued the English position. I would be very interested how the game had ended with Archer.
Under this circumstances I played for a 3-way-draw. If I look at the end position the logical result is a E/F/T-draw. England can take Russia out very easily. There is no danger for a Turkish solo victory but Simon signaled me that he wouldn`t do that so I accepted the draw. I again don`t understand Englands point of view. Was it a gap of courage? Was it not having the diplomatic control alone? Maybe you can explain it to me, Simon. If I had played England I had taken Russia out.
All in all it was a very interesting game and definitly not my last one on DC. Thanky to everybody especially to Warren for GMing.

Now that it has been a while, the memory has faded a bit so please excuse any innaccuracies:
First, a big thanks to Warren - I always enjoy your GMing and playing as well.
As Austria, I believe I just sort of hosed it up at the beginning and pretty much paid for it like a normal Austria-out-first game. I do like Austria, it is like playing chess a queen down, but always fun.
Thanks to all of you for playing, stabbers included as that is the thrill of the game andwhy we play. I did like to watch from the sidelines as it finished out. Well done, hope to see you all again soon.

many thanks to everyone for a great game.
work commitments got in the way at times so sorry for missed emails and late orders
Italy is difficult at best of times but even harder if tur and fra are insufficiently pinned down
I'm afraid it is almost impossible to survive being in the middle of a Mediterranean sandwich
i had hopeful for greater success but ultimately i was unable to use diplomacy to shape the play in a favourable way.
my only surprise is that t and e did not try to go for a two way draw as confined f and r did not stand a chance
all the best

We thus move quickly to Winter 1902. We need the following adjustments:
Austria: 4 supply centres, 3 units. Home supply centre occupation blocks 1 build.
England: 6 supply centres, 5 units. 1 unit may be built.
France: 5 supply centres, 5 units. No units to build or remove.

Italy: 5 supply centres, 4 units. 1 unit may be built.
Russia: 9 supply centres, 6 units. 3 units may be built.
Turkey: 1 supply centre, 3 units. 2 units must be removed.

***Deadline Spring 1903 Monday 14th April 1500 GMT ***. This deadline is now set.
Likely future schedule:
Summer 1903 by Tuesday 15th April
Fall 1903 Monday 28th April Autumn/Winter 1903 by Wednesday 30th April
Spring 1904 Sunday 4th May
In other words we have 2 weeks between Spring and Fall 1903 instead of the usual week. All this is to accommodate a trip of my own and at the request of some other players. I suppose it's that time of year...
Please let me know quickly if this is not going to work for you, and I will see what can be done. Once a deadline is set, I will not usually change it.
As always: send preliminary orders now, while you think of it! Then if you have some real-life event intervening, at least you have got some orders for your units to follow!

The Tsar makes good his gains in Turkey! Germany is somewhat beleaguered as England makes fresh pots of tea in Belgium and Denmark. The French hold their own and cultivate their vineyards, while across the Alps, action from Italy and Russia causes a bit of headache for the Archduke.
The only dislodged unit is Austrian A Vienna, which has no escape and is destroyed.
Press:
Vladimir Spewtin- EU: We did not intend to annex Ankara, but were invited to provide protection for our 2 citizens in the city, who were being harassed by raki sellers in their favourite bars. You can be sure that we will not encroach onto the sovereign territory of any other power, unless subjected to similar provocation.

We thus move quickly to Winter 1902. We need the following adjustments:
Austria: 4 supply centres, 3 units. Home supply centre occupation blocks 1 build.
England: 6 supply centres, 5 units. 1 unit may be built.
France: 5 supply centres, 5 units. No units to build or remove.
Germany: 4 supply centres, 5 units. 1 unit must be removed.
Italy: 5 supply centres, 4 units. 1 unit may be built.
Russia: 9 supply centres, 6 units. 3 units may be built.
Turkey: 1 supply centre, 3 units. 2 units must be removed.
*** Deadline: Please let me have these builds by tomorrow, that’s Saturday 5th April 1500 GMT*** I will put out a new map as soon as I have a full set of builds/disbands orders.

Yeah, she was killer. I freely admit to writing a somewhat callous message to her early in the game, calling her out on that, because I simply couldn't believe a novice could handle a game the way she was. Watch out, sheep, a wolf is loose among us! ;o)
Thanks to all for your kind words. Already suspect I'm going down big in Round 2, lol.

Congratulations Marc- who taught me about stalemate lines, DMZ's, and the importance of the long game. Thank you for a wonderful game! You deserve the win.
Good luck all with the rest of the tournament. Happy gaming.

Hi gang,
Here is the fateful turn. I am not sure if this is proper protocol, but I am doing it anyway
Germany has achieved 18 supply centers, and nothing in the retreats is going to change that. So I ran the retreats as ordered or as I assumed they would order, and the game is now OVER. The final status is pasted below the adjudication.
Congrats to Marc for a well deserved win, and THANK YOU to all participants who were great at getting orders in, no matter the situation on the board.
I wish I could say the same for some of my round 2 players........
Although not required, you can send End of Game Statements to the group... I'm sure people would be glad to read them.
