Fall 1906: the year that has been dubbed the Year of Truth.
After a huge number of envoys visited the Powers remaining the
endgame proposal for a Russian Solo has been REJECTED again.
The leaders of the Powers are at a loss: how come that the EGP was
rejected while all had spoken out in favor of the EGP?!
France chose to Hold all his units much to the benefit of Germany
and Italy, who overtook no less than 2 SCs this Fall.
Russia performed an act of charity and supported the last remaining
Turkish unit back into a safe harbour while also holding the
majority of its units.
England, with only 2 units, avoided any losses by blocking the
German attack on Edinburgh.
There are 3 retreats for this Autumn (all by France).
See below.

Retreats
------------
French A Picardy can retreat to Brest. Or OTB.
French F Spain(sc) can retreat to Mid-Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Lyon
or Portugal. Or OTB.
French F Tunis can retreat to Ionian Sea or Western Mediterranean.
Or OTB.
However, the retreats of France are not relevant for the outcome of
the game since Russia will achieve 18 SCs this Winter, thus ending
the game. The retreats don't matter for France's or anyone else's
survival either.
End of Game
-------------------
Russia has Solo'd with 18 SCs ending the game. All others have
Survived, except for Austria who went into CD earlier and then was
eliminated.
I would like to thank you all for playing and making this exciting
until the last turn. I also like to thank the players for sharing
their thoughts with me throughout the game; it spices up the game
for the GM as usually one has to miss out on all the interaction.
May I invite you all to write your Endgame comments? About your fun
and grievances, your victories and your defeats, your GM and the
players, about the missing pieces to the puzzle. I love to read those.
Ownership of SCs at the end of the game is as follows:
England: Edinburgh, London.
France: Brest, Paris, Portugal.
Germany: Belgium, Holland.
Italy: Greece, Marseilles, Naples, Rome, Spain, Trieste,
Tunis, Venice.
Russia: Ankara, Berlin, Budapest, Bulgaria, Constantinople,
Denmark, Kiel, Liverpool, Moscow, Munich, Norway,
Rumania, Serbia, Sevastopol, St Petersburg, Sweden,
Vienna, Warsaw.
Turkey: Smyrna.
Austria: Supp 0
England: Supp 2
France: Supp 3
Germany: Supp 2
Italy: Supp 8
Russia: Supp 18

Stats will be calculated once I have uploaded the Endgame information.
