Otherwise, we have had such a long delay this last season that I would like to see us get back into the game as quickly as possible.
If there are any errors in the results, please make me aware of them ASAP. Per the House rules, any errors that are carried into the next season are irreversible. Map of the Builds, map of the results, and the dpy file are attached for your use.
Best of luck in the next season,

| DC255 Fall 1909 Results - Game Over - Dark Solo! - ndeily (Aug 29, 2009, 8:24 am) |
First and foremost, thanks to Matt for a well-run game, and to everyone who played for their dedication to keeping the game on track.
On a macro level, I agree that the symmetry of the map may make fo a slightly less interesting game. However, working from positions of exactly equal strength and position, with exactly equal opportunity for growth, tactics and diplomacy, seems to focus the experience on the players and their execution of their respective strategies in these areas.
Without the solid alliance with Jon from the outset, the solo would not have occurred. I may owe much to Blue's well-fought stalemate that contained my ally's growth.
Packrat and I dismembered White quickly, which was the plan, and it seemed we were destined for conflict from that point on, though he made several perusasive attempts to get me to turn on Yellow - once I had given (apparently) just enough for him to turn his attention (and units) to helping Blue, the time came for the stab, which was not devastating but gave me the tactical leverage to push things past the tipping point.
As always, Packrat's defense was well played until he chose to discontinue it. I've thoroughly enjoyed the variant and playing with you all, and am very pleased to have earned my first solo on DC.
Nathan

So it's not going to come as a surprise to anyone at this point, but I still offer my hearty congratulations to our Dark player Nathan for pulling off the 12 center solo (one more than required!).
I also want to thank all of you for an almost perfect game in terms of submission of orders and the such; we only had a couple graces used and a couple NMR's (Blue in fact suffered one on this final turn), but in general you guys enabled me to keep this game running smoothly.
I'd love to see EOG statements from each of you including your thoughts on both our individual game and the map in general. Personally I found the map intriguing when I first saw it, which is why I chose to GM this game. However, as the game progressed I found myself a little bored by the map and its symmetry. However, it obviously does do its job of eliminating any complaint about unequal starting positions.
Again congrats to Nathan, and I'm sure I'll see you all in future DC games. You all of course are welcome in any game that I GM; be on the lookout for some sort of gunboat full press game soon!

I offer my congrats to Nathan, a well played game. Sorry about the NMR I thought the game was over in the summer for some reason. At the start of the game I looked for an ally against Scott but could not find one I trusted. I decided to ally with my old foe instead. He was a great ally and I blame our defeat on my not getting a unit past Yellow's lone army. Dark was wise to continually backup that army through out the game and not fall for the tempting open Yellow SC. Great game Jon but you could have lied to me at start of game then stabbed. This was not an open game but two blocks and one power left out in the cold. I wonder how a gunboat version would work out?
With warm regards, Hugh

A fun game but an uninspiring map; Unfortunately I was unable to devote as much time to it as I would have liked.
From the outset, a strong alliance with either Dark or Blue was a goal of mine, but Nathan was quicker to respond. I wanted to bring Red onboard as well with me, but we could never get anything going together. I stuck with Dark and only once considered otherwise, however, Packrat betrayed my confidence. At that point I knew I would settle for a Dark solo at worst.
I think the game could have been played to a three way draw had Red decided not to capitulate to Dark, but it's too difficult to say with certainty. The death of Blue was inevitable in that case and Red would have had to pick between defending against me or Dark.
Either way, congrats to Nathan and a good game from all,
-Jon

So it's not going to come as a surprise to anyone at this point, but I still offer my hearty congratulations to our Dark player Nathan for pulling off the 12 center solo (one more than required!).
I also want to thank all of you for an almost perfect game in terms of submission of orders and the such; we only had a couple graces used and a couple NMR's (Blue in fact suffered one on this final turn), but in general you guys enabled me to keep this game running smoothly.
I'd love to see EOG statements from each of you including your thoughts on both our individual game and the map in general. Personally I found the map intriguing when I first saw it, which is why I chose to GM this game. However, as the game progressed I found myself a little bored by the map and its symmetry. However, it obviously does do its job of eliminating any complaint about unequal starting positions.
Again congrats to Nathan, and I'm sure I'll see you all in future DC games. You all of course are welcome in any game that I GM; be on the lookout for some sort of gunboat full press game soon!

I think I'm on the same page as everyone else - it was an interesting game, but the map's not one I'd really play again. I do think that the actual diplomacy plays a bigger part than normal in this game, and I found the map rather cramped for much tactical play to really happen. In particuler, it seems rather easy to choke fleet movement at each leg.
In terms of survival, I think I was pretty much destined to go down as soon as Nathan started his fleets back towards me, but I certainly put my foot in it and sealed my fate by assuming there was an alliance on and asking Jon and Hugh to come on it. I doubly sealed it by rushing things and just making it an open letter to everyone. I think the lesson I took away from that is to think twice before writing letters to multiple recipients... 
Apart from my mistakes though, that was a very well played game. I'd be more than happy to play again with any of you (nd in fact am doing already). Well done folks!

A fun game but an uninspiring map; Unfortunately I was unable to devote as much time to it as I would have liked.
From the outset, a strong alliance with either Dark or Blue was a goal of mine, but Nathan was quicker to respond. I wanted to bring Red onboard as well with me, but we could never get anything going together. I stuck with Dark and only once considered otherwise, however, Packrat betrayed my confidence. At that point I knew I would settle for a Dark solo at worst.
I think the game could have been played to a three way draw had Red decided not to capitulate to Dark, but it's too difficult to say with certainty. The death of Blue was inevitable in that case and Red would have had to pick between defending against me or Dark.
Either way, congrats to Nathan and a good game from all,
-Jon

I offer my congrats to Nathan, a well played game. Sorry about the NMR I thought the game was over in the summer for some reason. At the start of the game I looked for an ally against Scott but could not find one I trusted. I decided to ally with my old foe instead. He was a great ally and I blame our defeat on my not getting a unit past Yellow's lone army. Dark was wise to continually backup that army through out the game and not fall for the tempting open Yellow SC. Great game Jon but you could have lied to me at start of game then stabbed. This was not an open game but two blocks and one power left out in the cold. I wonder how a gunboat version would work out?
With warm regards, Hugh

First and foremost, thanks to Matt for a well-run game, and to everyone who played for their dedication to keeping the game on track.
On a macro level, I agree that the symmetry of the map may make fo a slightly less interesting game. However, working from positions of exactly equal strength and position, with exactly equal opportunity for growth, tactics and diplomacy, seems to focus the experience on the players and their execution of their respective strategies in these areas.
Without the solid alliance with Jon from the outset, the solo would not have occurred. I may owe much to Blue's well-fought stalemate that contained my ally's growth.
Packrat and I dismembered White quickly, which was the plan, and it seemed we were destined for conflict from that point on, though he made several perusasive attempts to get me to turn on Yellow - once I had given (apparently) just enough for him to turn his attention (and units) to helping Blue, the time came for the stab, which was not devastating but gave me the tactical leverage to push things past the tipping point.
As always, Packrat's defense was well played until he chose to discontinue it. I've thoroughly enjoyed the variant and playing with you all, and am very pleased to have earned my first solo on DC.
Nathan

Howdy players -
Quickie post for now just to keep the game flowing. I don't have a
map for you right now, and I'm not setting a new Spring 828 deadline
yet, but I wanted to give you all these results so you wouldn't have
to sit on hold until I get back on Sunday. I will kick out a map and
update the DC site then, and there will be a normal Thursday deadline
then most likely, if no one objects.
And with that, I'm off to swim...
Swedes - Remove F Bal, A Sve
Bretons - Remove A Dyf
Gaels - Remove F Heb
Danes - Build F Jel WC, F Rib WC, A Ros
Scots - Build F For

Anglo-Saxons - No Change
And to answer a question, Dark Ages victory condition is 20 SCs, per

[quote:b33fa3ca3f]Honored Kings of the Dark Ages -
An interesting season - battles rage all over the map, yet not a single
retreat needed. The big winners this year are the Danes, who pick up an
impressive *three* SCs, courtesy of their stab of the Anglo-Saxons and deep
strike into Swedish territory. Elsewhere, the Gaels suffer the loss of
Munster to the Scots, who manage to hold their plunder with Anglo-Saxon
aid. The Gaels and Scots fight an epic but inconclusive battle in Dal
Riada, while Norse fleets appear off Scottish shores. The Bretons press
far
behind Anglo-Saxon lines, but are still faced with a disband this winter.
We'll have a slightly abnormal deadline for Winter 827 on Tuesday 25 August

| DC230 Lost Kings - Fall 1910 - Hold On To Your Hac... - former.trout (Aug 27, 2009, 11:23 pm) |
This sporting match ain't quite done sporting. The French claw their way agonizingly close to a solo victory, but with Austria reclaiming Constantinople the Napolean Dynamiters fall one center short. However, it isn't all cheese and gravy as the Austrian Bulgarian contingent is imploded in the process - and with no home centers to build in, is that a loss that the good Arch-Duke can survive?
Ooohhhh. Tension. =)
A couple of notes from the turn - there was one misorder from Austria as the fleet in Constantinople was ordered to Bulgaria, with no coastal designation specified. It was a moot point however as France powered into the province from the Black Sea.
The other note is concerning the German army in Norway, which was foisted out of those comfortable Norwegian fjords. The unit has options - deadline for the Early Winter 1910 retreat will be set for Saturday, August 29th (11:59 PM GMT).
Please just let me know if you spot any errors. Cheers!

Hi Everyone,
Here is the corresponding .dpy file. I did not give it a
custom name
because I was unable to load the previous ones I gave a custom
name
to, as REalpolitik said they were from an "Invalid variant".
This
should load easily and have the current, fully updated information.
Happy hunting!
Dirk

Sorry it took me longer than I had anticipated to get to

[/quote:1ea2148a50]the

Given Roger's absence and my late publication of the

[quote:1ea2148a50]retreats/adjustments, I've moved the spring deadline back a
[/quote:1ea2148a50]week.
[quote:1ea2148a50]There's another player absence coming up, but I hope a
[/quote:1ea2148a50]temporary
[quote:1ea2148a50]replacement will be found, so as to keep us on track
[/quote:1ea2148a50]through
[quote:1ea2148a50]September.
Dirk, please remember to include all the observers when

You have to download and install it.
- Go to www.diplomaticcorp.com
- Click on variants
- Scroll down to SAS
- There is a small RP link to the right of it - click that
- This should pop up a "Run or Save" dialog - Choose Save. Or, your i.e. may throw up one of the yellow i.e. protection bars (bill g always lookin out for us) so you'll have to click that and say download file, then pick save from the popup.
- Save this file on your Desktop
Now go unzip it...
Dont have Winzip? Ok have to get that first, from www.sims-family.net/library/winzip81.exe
- Once unzipped, you should have a folder (note, a regular folder - not a zip).
- Cut that folder, and pasted it into your c:\program files\realpolitik\variants folder, next to all the other variants you see there.
- Next time you start RP, the new variant should be an option.
