I'm one of the old lags in this game, being in from the start...

The start of the game seems ages ago, but I remember pulling a fast one on Russia at the start to get into the Black Sea.  I then managed to NMR in Fall 1901, which I'd like to think was the reason I didn't get very far in the game, but I realise in reality that my stupidity in Fall 1901 has little to do with it!

I had an initial plan with Italy to take out Austria, but Italy disappeared and I never really got any decent dialogue going with my neighbours after that .  As Turkey I was able to mount a fairly solid defence as the hordes first took Bulgaria, and then closed in on my home centres.  My fleet in the Black Sea was consistently being disrupted by the Russian navy, stopping it taking advantage of it's good position.

After that, it was what I thought would be a slow death, with France advancing in the Med, Austria and Russia continuing to squeeze and my existence in the game threatened...and then the game entered a stasis period, to be resurrected a few short weeks ago with a new GM and a "stop France" proposal. I was a very junior partner in this, ordering as I was told...and I somehow emerged from this as a one centre power being part of a draw, which I'm overjoyed with.

For what it's worth, I don't think France could have soloed...the stop France alliance seemed to be working well (apart from a few initial misorders!) and we seemed pretty tight...France was about to face the English fleets from the North and wouldn't be getting to 18 any time soon.

In closing, thanks for those who played the game, particularly replacement players.  And thanks to the GMs for doing their bit!

French Replacement EGS:

Could I have gotten the solo? Possibly. But it wasn't mine to take as I too
was a replacement. By the time I took over the expanding French Empire, it
had already eliminated Italy and Germany was left with one lonely army.
That
being said, I'm certainly not above taking someone else's solo. I agreed to
the draw because I wasn't sure that I could get to 18 before the English
navy began to rape and pillage French ports. A quick look at history
convinced me that once the rest of the world has turned on you, it's time
to
call it quits. Congrats to the three little countries that conspired to
deny
me center after center. And congrats to Alex for a well timed stab. Perhaps
in another year or two, I could have held off the wretched English long
enough to destroy the hated Austrians and claim my prize. But alas, it was
not to be. I will be content with the draw and hope to play you all again

3rd game tonight!

We’ve got some hectic action going on, as France counters back at England with reasonable success, but gets overshadowed by the whopping build 3 for the Brits. Turkey survives another year in Smyrna , and Russian orders seem to indicate that they have no clue what anyone else is doing.

Now seeing as my probing for game names drew only a single suggestion, I guess it’s time to vote… “Back From the Deadâ€Â� was proposed by our very own Russian! So let’s have it: Either “Andy that name sucksâ€Â� or “Andy you rockâ€Â�.

Votes with winter builds!

Winter, due Tuesday Sep 8, 6pm Central (but will post when I have both in)

England: Build 3
France: Build 1
