I have just endured the British election without any winner and it looks much like this game. Its making me into a pacifist.

Yes folks after 15-1/2 hard fought years of Invitational goodness, we finally have...
 
...To carry on!
 
DIAS is voted down, again.  And the mood among the Norwegian Ladies, well, is it just PMS?  Or maybe the exceedingly high proportion of centers occupied by opposing units this summer...  Russia and Turkey make a land-grab, flexing their little-power muscle into Saint Pete, Sev, Bud, Rom, and even Spain, and forcing the Norwegians in Bohemia OTB.  The French fall back to Belgium, taking some lumps of their own - losing their army in Silesia, and every first born into Turkish slavery.  This is certainly going down as an unbelievable rags-to-riches, game...
 
What next?
 
Well, one easy retreat:
French F Rome can go to Tus, Apu, or OTB by tomorrow 3pm Central!

F English Channel Supports A Holland - Belgium
