Apparently when you are in Ice Station Zero, you lose all track of what day it is, how many days in a week etc... It's either that or the hideous amount i had to drink and the young girl who i assume was so impressed by my witty banter.. but i digress,,
I meant to give you one week for establishing initial builds, not 2 weeks.
Therefore you actual deadline for Winter 1900 Builds is :-
Dc159 Winter 1900 is due Thursday 21st at 9pm, Australian EST.
If this is too soon for anyone please let me know.

| Dc159: Specific Deluge Rules - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
Here are another copy of the deluge rules (including the re-modified Army-Fleet rule) for you to read. I've added a 3rd example to the a-F rules to answer a question, a player asked me.
Deluge Rules.
***********************************************
Deluge Rules.
0. Regular Diplomacy rules apply except when they don't.
1. The game begins in Winter 1900 which is played as a separate season. Players may decide which type of unit to build in their home centres in readiness for Spring 1901. For example, Russia may build F(StP)nc if it wishes.
2. Any army in a coastal province may, instead of being ordered to move or support, be ordered to turn into a fleet. Such a transformation will be successful provided the unit is not dislodged that move.
3. Rising sea levels result in the gradual submergence of provinces according to Table 1 below. Submergences occur every year after any adjustments in Winter. Once submerged, a s.c. is effectively destroyed and may not be used for the following Winters' adjustments.
Table 1 - Submergences W 1901: Lon, Hol, Bel, Gas, Ven, Lvn.
W 1902: Yor, Pic, Apu, Rum, Sev, Fin, Syr, Den, Lpl.
W 1903: Arm, Bre, StP, Par, Tus, Nap, Bud, Kie.
W 1904: Ber, Mos, Mar, Por, Rom, Vie, Bul, Gre, Pru, Ruh, Gal, Ukr, Con.
W 1905: Wal, Cly, Swe, Tri, Alb, War, Ice.
W 1906: Edi, Spa, Tun, Ser, Smy, Sil, Boh.
W 1907: Nwy, Mun, Pie, Tyr, NAf, Bur, Ank.
4. Armies in provinces which submerge are drowned!
5. New supply centres are formed in the course of the game, after all Winter retreats and adjustments, according to Table 2.
Table 2 - New Supply Centres W 1901: Wal, Ruh, Tyr.
W 1902: Ukr, Ice.
W 1903: Pie.
W 1904: Boh, Sil.
W 1905: Swi.
W 1906: NAf.
When a new s.c. is created it immediately comes under the control of :-
(1) any unit occupying that province
(2) the last country to have a unit in that province
(3) the country within whose boundary the new s.c. lies
(4) if none of the above it is neutral.
6. Iceland is a valid space in this variant and it becomes passable after W 1901. The province of Switzerland becomes passable after W 1904.
7. Players may build units in any vacant supply centre which they control.
8.The winner is the survivor (if any) after W 1908.
9. We will be using the modified Army-Fleet rules. These are :-
A fleet is capable of carrying an army (rather than convoy) to further spaces on the map. The 'boarding' phase happens prior to moves, however the 'disembark' phase happens at the same time as regular moves. If the 'carrying' fleet does not move in that season, it can adds it's support to the disembark. Here are some examples of how this might work.
Example 1
A London Boards Fleet English Channel
F English Channel moves to Mid Atlantic Ocean
A London disembarks in Portugal.
So london moves to portugal with strength of 1. If it bounces out of portugal it will remain on board the fleet in the MAO creating an A/F
Example 2
A Mid Atlantic Ocean disembarks in Portugal
A/F Mid Atlantic Ocean supports A Mid atlantic ocean - portugal
The army on board the A/F would attempt to move to Portugal with support, so a strength of 2.
NB - a combined A/F counts as 2 units.
Example 3
A London Boards Fleet North Sea
F North Sea suppors A london - holland
A London disembarks in Holland.
In this example, the army in London is moving to Holland with a strength of 2. If another country cut the support from the north sea the army would only move to holland with a strength of 1.

| Dc159 Fall 1901 - Info Email - test_gm (Sep 13, 2007, 12:00 am) |
The news is at hand. The world has flooded. Africa was the last to sink plummeting to the depths late last night and no contact can be established with the Americas. Only Russia knows if there is any dry land east of them in the rest of Asia and yet they are silent on the issue. Huge Tidal waves have swept through the atlantic resulting in the flooding of London, Belgium and Holland. There are also reports that central france has become to subside and that there is now fleet access to Moscow. Venice is completely underwater. New colonies have 'begun' to be established in Wales (by English troops), Ruhr (by German Troops) and Tyrloia (By Austrian Troops) and these will be under direct control of these nations AT the end of Winter 1901.
*****************************
First thing to note, my fellow current survivors, My base can be found high in the mountains of switzerland. The player to have their representatives there in 1908 will be granting the title of sole survivor and will win a million dollars as presented by Jeff Probst. Next the map I am about to share with you, about the lay out of the land has different colours to what you expect. It is do to with the new programme I am using to create the deluge map (slightly beyond Realpolitik's reach)
England is now represetented by Red
France is now Dark Blue
Germany is Grey
Russia is Brown
Italy is Orange
Austria is White.
Turkey is Green.
All units and SC have the flag of the country on them. A SC with a yellow star on it is neutral.
Some of the place names also get obscured when I place a unit there, so hopefully we'll all muddle through this together.
**********************************
Fall 1901
Fall 1901 so Italy trial two of the rules specific for this variant. Not only to Italy save its unit in venice by transforming it to a fleet, he also created an "army-fleet" to take Greece. the Turkish attack on the Ionion would have cut the fleets support though, but it was a good start at using "army - fleet"s. Do not under estimate the power of those units, in fact I suggest that re-reading the examples i gave you on them would be a good thing.
Since this is really wordy, I'll send the map and adjudication in another email.
