Well, of course, Kevin. It just simplifies his life greatly if he follows the same course of action in all his games. So, keep an eye out on DC 345... if he makes a stab there, you can be certain he'll make the same stab in this game (unless he NMRs).

See Adam, that's the key. John is flipping sides in all of the games that he's playing. Sadly, I don't know how he's going to move his fleets north or west in this game... but I have a feeling he'll try instead of continuing his southern assault against me.

John, you don't know how much your email deflated me this morning! Not because your NBR squelched any plans (it didn't)... but because I *am* the GM in that other game, and this morning I had mentally prepared a whole riff about how you must've gotten confused between games. After all:
- you told me in DC 340 that you were building A Mus
- you built A Mos in DC 345 last weekend
- you're so confused that yesterday you attacked your southern ally in DC 345 thinking that you were moving against your southern enemies in DC 340.
How disappointing to find out that my lame joke turned out to be true.

So wait... When I submitted that build to my other dip game that I wanted to build A Mos, I just kind of assumed you'd realize I also wanted A Mus. I know you aren't the GM of the other game, and have no connection to it whatsoever, but I figured all gamemasters are omniscient and thus I would only need to submit one build for Mos/MUs.
Actually, apart from ascribing any blame to Garry, that's pretty close to what happened. I was sure I'd turned my build in... And I had, but to build A MOS in another game. Curses Foiled again!

So the positioning continues but Ukraine misses out...
Sicily builds more fleets to try to dominate the Med
Israel keeps pace
Poland's armies melt into the steppes (except for Mas)
Spain's home city army disappears and the fleet visiting England decides to disband; oddly a new fleet appears in Wessex
Burgundy strengthens its borders with an army and a fleet
It seems that I never got orders from John. Unless you have confirmed orders from me I regret to inform you that you are NBR'd.
Let's set up
Spring04 for next Thursday the 11th at 3pm CST. NOTE THE EARLIER TIME. I have plans that night and will be doing the turn early to avoid it being late night.
Good luck.
Garry
