| DC-239 Autumn 1905 Adjudication - TheWhiteWolf (May 28, 2009, 8:10 pm) |
All,
I've had no contact from David, which means I'll be seeking a replacement France. *sigh*
In gameplay news, Russia attempted to retreat the Swedish fleet far over his home territory, to his southern border. Sadly, a transposition of letters caused an invalid order, and the unit is disbanded.

One change to the fall results, France ordered F Spain(sc) -> Western Med instead of to MAO. Fortunately, this has no impact on the pending retreats and adjustments. A corrected RP file and game map are attached. Sorry for the mistake!

| dc246 fall 1909 results! - coryfucius (May 28, 2009, 4:46 pm) |
England returns to the game just in time to defend London and Belgium against French attacks. France does manage to move to the Irish Sea. Austria's move on Venice is rebuffed by Italy and France, but those two powers are unable to stop Turkey from sailing to the Ionian Sea.
One autumn retreat is due:
The Italian fleet in the Ionian Sea may retreat to Apulia, Tunis, or Tyrrhenian Sea.
Winter 1909 adjustments will be as follows:
Austria: build 1
England: build 3
France: no change or remove 1, depending on retreat
Italy: remove 1 or no change, depending on retreat
Both the autumn retreat and winter adjustments will be due tomorrow, Friday 5/29 at 3pm Central (US) / 20:00 GMT. Michael, if you wish to announce your retreat ahead of the deadline, please let me know. Mikael, since the Italian retreat may not be known before the deadline, I will accept a contingent removal order.

| DC 247: F1909 Adjudication - AceRimmer (May 28, 2009, 2:39 pm) |
Fall retreat and/or Winter adjustment orders are required from Austria, England, France, Italy, and Turkey. Russia can hit the snooze button.
I've seen many games foregone by F1909. Even some solos. Needless to say, this is not one of them. There's been twists, turns, and even the rescue of a cute little stray kitten. Very heartwarming. England bulls his way into Kiel. Russia kicks the French out of Burgundy. But the French stand stalwart in the water. And the grizzly end of Austria is must-see-TV. Tune in next year for (most likely) his final chapter.
We have two retreats:
French A Burgundy can retreat to Marseilles, Gascony, Paris, or OTB.
Austrian A Trieste can retreat to Tyrolia or OTB.
These are due tomorrow at 1900 GMT (1400 CST). Also due at the same time, assuming no OTB retreats, builds will be:
Austria: Supp 1 Unit 3 Remove 2
England: Supp 11 Unit 10 Build 1
France: Supp 5 Unit 5 Build 0
Germany: Supp 0 Unit 0 Build 0
Italy: Supp 3 Unit 2 Build 1
Russia: Supp 7 Unit 7 Build 0
Turkey: Supp 7 Unit 6 Build 1

| Gunboat anyone? - Kenshi777 (May 28, 2009, 11:06 am) |
Is there a bold GM out there willing to run a gunboat Standard game? Haven't played a silent round in a while, and was hoping to do so. Not sure if DC lends itself to that format though, as I think the website lists the player names that joined the game - any way around that?
B.[Reply] |
| Unknown (Open Games) FuzzyLogic May 29, 09:33 pm |
hehe... First vote is my "lame".  I may hate gunboat, but there are a slew of people out there that die for them. I guess it's kinda like poeple who would like pralines in their ice cream, or maybe flat tires on their car. Yeah I guess it's kinda like that to me. But if ne1 want to run one, do so, and it'll fill up fast! |

| DC-227 Spring 1919 Adjudication - TheWhiteWolf (May 27, 2009, 4:02 pm) |
All,
Both end-game votes have failed due to "no" votes. However, a new end-game proposal has been put forward - an EGIT. Please vote with your Fall orders.
England and Germany bounce in the Gulf of Bothnia, causing giant bounce chains for both countries. Elsewhere, Russia stands strong against a joint E/G assault, Italy loses a unit to German aggression, and France loses ground to England.

Indeed, I am in agreement with the others - good job in GMing.
For this game, my original strategy of careful neutrality was easy for me in the Westlands. Once my own area's SCs were captured I could have very easily sat back and watched the rest of the continent fight it out. Choosing to side with the Borderlands once the Midlands/Seafolk looked to be gaining the upper hand was simple prudence - which unfortunately was too far along when almost all the players changed. From then on out, the sides were pretty much set. If it hadn't been for the Seachan and Trollocs arriving during those last couple of turns - things would have turned out very differently.
As for a post-action report on the Westlands game play, its remarkably easy to get to a certain point - then next to impossible to move onwards. With easy choke points in the north and central areas, you're channeled into either attacking the Whitecloaks or the Seafolk. The Seafolk can easily block but the Whitecloaks are in more of a pickle.
Then there are the Barbarians at the gate. The Seachan. The Seafolk can block them easily enough if they aren't distracted by other things. The Trollocs - easily blocked if the Borderlands aren't distracted. The Aiel - ditto.
But one of the advantages to the Southlands, the Whitecloaks (and to a lesser extent the Midlands) is that they aren't going to be impacted by any Barbarians until they've expanded enough to be only minimally inconvenienced by them. The Seafolk aren't going to be ever touched by the Trollocs or the Aiel - and can easily deal with the Seachan with minimal foresight. Meanwhile the Borderlands are required to keep at least one army in the rear at all times, and more prudently 2-3 which is a huge handicap. This leaves the other countries with armies which don't have to be held in reserve just in case.
-Mark Duffield
I only have a limited perspective as I jumped in late as a replacement.
First, thanks to my fellow players and thanks especially to Jason for GMing. Jason always has a lot of patience for us "orders laggards," and I both appreciate that as well as apologize for the any delays I may have caused in this one. I don't really have a legitimate excuse, but no sooner had I signed on to play, than I came under fire from what seemed to be every direction in the real world.
The upside was that Midlands, it seems, had recently been the big dog of the board and I had been handed what appeared to be a pretty solid starting position and all the other players were immediately open and communicative. The downside was that Midlands had been the big dog of the board and what looked like a solid position was actually a strategic retreat in progress as a couple of other players had just handed Midlands its shorts.
And while indeed everyone was open to a conversation, it was apparent from the beginning that there was little hope to change the already well established balance of play around the board. Again, not that people were not open to ideas--everyone listened and commented (or at least paid lip service to my BS) I just couldn't find any strategic logic (even the fuzzy type) that I could use to persuade either Borderlands or Westlands to attack each other, or support me in some other way. Conversely, it was a no-brainer that I'd work with the Sea Folk and the Whiteclouds.
I was actually prepared to continue this one and support the Seafolk who did have a plan with some merit to it. Producing any significant results from that plan, however, would be a long haul it was agreed and I was personally concerned I'd dash our joint hopes by acting the blockhead and either miss-ordering or pulling a NMR out of a hat. So as they say in free-fall parachuting, I pulled everything red and shiny...
A Final note. Although I didn't play Borderlands, and thus was not the harass-ee, I generally enjoy the quirks of some of these non-standard games, such as the sudden appearance of units or other similar "act of god." Given the geography of this board, it's probably one of the most effective ways to help ensure there is not an early stalemate.
No matter, thanks again to all and until next time!

Subject: Re: DC 216 Children of the Light EoG
Thanks again, Jason, for a second round of a variant where your interest shines though so clearly. You've made both my forays a lot of fun.
I think Alan's analysis is excellent, and a great jumping-off point. He is a good player who was totally stymied by Eduardo Kyono, the original Sea Folk leader. (I had similar issues with Eric Shum, playing Southlands.) The major drawback to this otherwise very enjoyable variant is that geography limits the diplomatic options of almost every player. Borderlands and Midlands have to fight. Westlands and Whitecloaks almost certainly have to fight. Southlands has two options - Whitecloaks or Midlands - and the Sea Folk have three. This sense of being locked in continues throughout the game; it's almost impossible to for most of the powers to solo. It may be telling that the two tests so far have resulted in two large draws.
I would recommend taking the same beautiful map and adding more provinces, with more ways around the all-too-limiting impassable spaces. (This applies to the sea as well: two Sea Folk fleets can seal off a Westlands armada from touching either the Sea Folk homeland or making the turn to attack the Whitecloaks or Southlands.)
On a personal note playing Borderlands, I wound up pretty frustrated by the too-frequent appearances of Men In Black. I mis-ordered once vs Midlands well before Bruce took over, and that may have made a difference - but that one instance aside, every time I had a head of steam going, I had to deal with an attack from behind. To be clear, I'm not saying that the game is unbalanced in this way - more that it's not a lot of fun to have such frequent random elements in a game designed to have none (no dice, simultaneous moves, etc.). Or not fun for me, anyway!

Hello again everybody,
I dont have a whole lot to say about this game so this should be a relatively short EoG. First of all let me say thank you to Jason who ran this game. He did a great job at GM and I know he's really put a lot of time into making this Wheel of Time diplomacy idea work.
As for the actual game, the whole time I felt like a caged mouse. My biggest success of the game was taking Ghealdan. I built an army in the fall and figured it was time to get down to business. Boy was I wrong. Expanding West was a poor option for me because of the Mountains of Mist. Likewise expanding north was equally as challenging. I set my sights to the East and hoped to take Illian from the Soutlanders with some Seafolk help. I still curse the seafolk name, as far as I'm concerned it was one of the worst diplomacy experiences I've ever had.
The seafolk just could nto be reached. I tried to negotiate me taking Illian in exchange for my help with him taking Tear. Tear Gordon and Mayene would have all been his I would have been happy with Far madding and Illian. The relationship with seafolk never really got off the board so I tried to set my sights on the Ocean. Maybe With some cunning strategy I could get some fleets out to see and cause some real problems for the Sea Folk. The West seemed on board so around spring 1002 I believe I planned to move on Illian with support from the Soutlanders. After taking Illian I would then allow my army to be popped for a Southland army. This would give me a build, in which I could raise a Fleet to take on the Sea Folk. It was a desperate time and a desperate measure, but the plan never sunk in with anyone else and ended up being a flop.
Shortly after the West and the Midlands took me out of the game quite handily. A painful game with a painful end.
Thank you all for playing, If I were to play this board again i would enjoy to see some changes. The impassable territories in the West make the game very difficult for The Whitecloaks and the West. If Ghaeldon touched more provinces it would have made my lfe a lot easier as well. Only one outlet into Emonds field made negotiating above me very difficult.
Thanks,
Alan Farrington

Heya folks,
I'm sorry to sing this same old refrain, but our player away on vacation has not yet surfaced. They told me that they would be back for the 26th, but with no orders received from them I guess that was not to be.
Giving an otherwise steadfast player the benefit of the doubt, I'm going to delay the turn a couple days maximum. Hopefully our stray player will get in touch ASAP.
Thanks for the patience everyone. =)
