Hi guys,

the Army of Flanders' long trek across Germany has brought it to the Baltic
shore. Since however Sweden couldn't use its spare builds anyway (as Stettin
and Riga are both blocked), this retreat didn't have any material impact on
the adjustments as Spain chose to waive a build.

BTW, does anyone of you actually use the Realpolitik-Files I've been
attaching to adjucations? As a player I'd find that very useful to work
through various scenarios, but if nobody uses it, I won't include it in
future.

Anyway, preliminary Spring 1654 orders are due on Saturday and the spring
deadline shall follow on Monday, 6 PM CET.

Liebe Grüsse,

Charles

Hi Charles,


One of the maps you sent me didn't have SOS and GOS, so now I can see everything you described. All of the changes work for me in accomplishing what you seek. It creates more fluidity in NW Europe, gives France a better shot at the HRE, cuts the one overpowered nation (Spain) down to size, and creates a more interesting Med situation. Given that the Med will still probably be a Turco-Spanish affair, I don't know that you need the extra centers for more maneuverability, and you may not need GOS. Finally, while these changes will all contribute to more fluidity, and therefore more stabs, it's still a good idea to see what happens if you reduce the winning number to 15.

Hi guys,
 
lately I've been considering a number of changes to the variant. Since I thought you might be interested in what I'm planning for 1648 and appreciate any feedback, here's a brief overview of the various changes I have in mind:
 
1) MERE 15 SCs REQUIRED FOR A SOLO VICTORY:
 
In other words, you need only 26% rather than 31% of all SCs to become the continent's hegemon. This is supposed to both make solos easier to achieve and tempt players to stab more often.
 
2) ADDITION OF LUXEMBOURG BUFFER SPACE:
 
Not only does this afford all player more room for manoeuvre, but it grants France better access to the Empire and removes the intitial leverage the Spanish Army of Flanders enjoys over Lorraine, to date the primary gateway for France towards the East.
 
3) VENICE & TUSCANY NO LONGER ADJACENT:
 
Lombardy's importance is enhanced now that it also borders the Papal States. This somewhat lessens Franco-Austrian friction as spheres of interest in Italy are more easily separated. There's now also a symmetry regarding the number of minor powers may lend support Austrian and French attempts in taking their respective Italian "natural SCs". Which means also that Austria can more easily kept out of Italy than under the present rules.
 
Much as the addition of Luxembourg, this change is in part explained by my desire to help France. 
 
4) ADDITION OF STRAIT OF SICILY & GULF OF SIDRA SEA SPACES:
 
This equally provides greater room for manoeuvre. The Tyrrhenian was too much of a bottleneck, for my tastes. Sardinia and Sicily both gain greater relevance. Spain's Naples becomes more of an outpost considering the now greater distance to Sevilla. And Tunis is further removed from Spain's power base. Indeed, I think the power balance in the Med considerably shifts towards Turkey. So Spain has quite a bit more on its plate, which in turn affects France's fortunes. I'd argue Spain now feels really thinly spread, much as it was historically.
 
Now, the Ionian remains as central in Spanish-Turkish affairs. But there's now also a Southern line of advance across the Mediterranean.
 
Anyway, what do you think of these changes shown on the below map? And if you have any ideas of your own as what to change, I'd be interested in those too.
 
Cheers,
 
Charles

Charles,
 
Speaking only for myself, the frustration is a product of your not being forthcoming with the reasons-why there are delays. While on one hand it is thoughtful to protect a struggling player on the other it creates uncertainty and anxiety for the others as there are frequent starts and stops. If rationale around delays were accompanied by targeted restart times this would have made the troubles this game has had much less disruptive.
 
If you are willing and able to GM in your historically punctual manner and we have a full slate of dedicated players I would prefer to continue. However given that, apparently, the new Sweden has contacted literally no one it seems we are a ways from getting toward being on track.
 
Dirk

Guys,


 

as it so happens, our replacement failed to submit orders. Despite my repeated warnings to him.

 

Such is the risk of taking on a newbie to the site.

 

Since I wanted to give him a chance to explain himself, I did not detail in my earlier note to you the reason for this delay. I was all set yesterday to get the adjucation out. Hoping for a last-minute arrival of Sweden's orders.

 

Believe me, this frustrates me as much as it does you.

 

I was hoping to have this game back on a smooth track. While I admittedly dragged my feet in getting a replacement, I don't see how I can be faulted here. I am committed to running this game smoothly to its conclusion. But if you guys want to end this in another way, that's your choice.

With regard to Nick, the original Austrian leader, my understanding is that Charles did not ask him to leave. There's little doubt that a player not talking in a game based on talking whose position is in the center of the map is doing the overall game a disservice. I was certainly not happy with it, and neither were at least some of the other players. When Charles inquired to Nick about his unusual lack of engagement, Nick replied that RL had overwhelmed him and he was sticking with the game only out of minimal commitment. Charles then offered to replace him, and Nick accepted, with very graceful apologies to all.

FWIW, I was annoyed at the manner of austria's departure, and discussed with Dirk and Harvey my concern sat that stage, and was persuaded to carry on. From what I remember  it seemed to me that Charles was imposing a style of play as a requirement on someone who was submitting moves, but not talking. I prefer conversations with other players, but don't see silence as  areason for a player to be expelled. But I may be mis-remembering or misinterpreting. i am enjoying the actual play, and the variant and players. I'd happily try it again. I am reluctant to have the dias, because I'd love to see how the game might turn out, (will austria fall? will there be a mass stalemate in the centre?) but I wouldn't continue it with so many wishing to end it, so I wouldn't block the dias. I don't always understand Charles' messages, or share his reasoning

For me, I try hard and take pride in always getting my turns in and completing my games. "Abandoning" a game is not something I would be happy with, personally.

My two cents.

I have never resigned from a game, and have never gone absent.

As some of you know, a week or two ago I wrote Charles to say that I was on the verge of resigning from this game.  That apparently prompted him to find a replacement for Sweden.

I am absolutely puzzled (and pissed) by Charles' newest message.  This is a Winter Adjustment Phase.  What the heck is there to adjudicate?

Please, talk to me about the merits of DIAS versus mass resignation from the game.

I do get confused by some of Charles' more enigmatic messages, and austria's leaving the game seemed to be because he wasn't playing as Charles wanted him too, in a communicative manner. I find non-communication unsocial, but not a reason for leaving a game by itself.
I would like to get a move on though

I told Charles 2 weeks ago that I wouldn't mind calling the game, but
I'd also be willing to stick with it.  Whatever the "majority" voted
for.

Considering these last messages, it's clear that the majority is
voting for DIAS.

So I vote for DIAS as well.   If the vote isn't unanimous though, I'll
keep playing.

Everyone -

My two cents.

I have never resigned from a game, and have never gone absent.

As some of you know, a week or two ago I wrote Charles to say that I was on
the verge of resigning from this game.  That apparently prompted him to find
a replacement for Sweden.

I am absolutely puzzled (and pissed) by Charles' newest message.  This is a
Winter Adjustment Phase.  What the heck is there to adjudicate?

Please, talk to me about the merits of DIAS versus mass resignation from the
game.

Regards to all from an angry Harvey

To all,
 

Harvey and I have already discussed our own dissatisfaction with the delays in this game.  How does everyone else feel about it?

Hi Harvey,
 

What do you think?  This is starting to turn into a joke.

Hi guys,

 

I shall not be adjucating right now. I hope that I shall be able to do so before too long.

I concur that I would like to have it be smoother. (Even in my poor position!)

I do get confused by some of Charles' more enigmatic messages, and austria's leaving the game seemed to be because he wasn't playing as Charles wanted him too, in a communicative manner. I find non-communication unsocial, but not a reason for leaving a game by itself.
I would like to get a move on though
