Dear all,
many thanks for such a good game and apologies especially to Sam who I stabbed despite having a good thing going. I hope I also demonstrated, probably to some people’s surprise, my willingness to not stab fra, even though I had at times some ample opportunity, especially in the forthcoming turn, but I gambled on a two way and am very pleased with that. I always try to identify one ally and game allowing stay with them for the whole game. I would like to offer my thanks to Warren for being such a great gm, I’d love him to publish his thoughts on the game. I also would like to thank Wladimir for being such a thoughtful and communicative ally, always ready to listen and challenge my duff ideas, without doubt the best ally I have had in diplomacy. I would also like to thank Michael for all of his correspondence.
I think ultimately what made the biggest difference, as well as fra and eng’s willingness to stick together was the unresolved eastern triangle, with tur not building a fleet at the end f 01 and ah and tur bashing each other in a stalemate it left fra and eng to resolve the west and then move on. I’d be interested to hear other people’s interpretation of the game.
Best wishes
Alfred Nicol

Hi,

That's all folks. The England/France draw passes with a unanimous vote. So a big congratulations to Alfred and Wladimir, and also to all that survived until the end. It was a good one, thanks to everyone that played.

I'll get the results entered and posted at DC as soon as I can.

End game map is attached, although I know you've all seen it before.

Cheers,

Warren
