*Italians Ferry Starving Austrians to Tunis for Supplies*
*"Worth it!" say Germans and English*
*Smyrna Contested, No Victor*
 
Hey all,
 
Italy generously contributes a center to austrian allies at the cost of his own units. England invests all his energy in ridding the motherland of germans, while germany happily takes Belgium uncontested. The Russians continue to spread across the map like a great white plague. They now have as many or more centers than any two other powers combined except Italy and Germany.

In other news, England apparently believes it has developed airships. I received this order: "F Den C A Tyr-Mun". While Tyr is not a good abbreviation (can refer to Tyrolia or the tyrrhenian sea), I felt Tyrolia was clearly intended by the army designation. However, it is an invalid move for three reasons. Denmark does not touch munich. It does not touch Tyrolia. And fleets in coastal provinces can not convoy, denmark being such a province. Just wanted to explain what's going on there.
 
Build-wise, we have:
Austria: even (-ser, +Tun)
England: -1 (-Bel)
Germany: +1 (-Ber, +Bel, +disbanded yorkshire army)
Italy: -1 (-tun)
Russia: +2 (+bul, +ber)
Turkey: even (-bul, +ser)
 
See you tomorrow for this! I might have a moderator run the winter turn again, so be aware of that and make sure to cc the orders box. I'm going to be traveling tomorrow, so the moves might be very late if I run them. However, if everyone marks builds as final by this evening, I can run the turn later today. No pressure though, the official deadline is still 8:00 AM CST tomorrow unless I get builds from everyone marked final before then.

Hey all!
 
You've mostly all done round one, so you know how this dance goes. I'll keep it simple. For Blitz games I use the DC House rules, though I do have final say in all matters, and may potentially overrule those house rules. I'm pretty much a by-the-book kind of fellow though, so what the house rules say is pretty much what you get. My games do have notoriously early deadlines: 8:00 AM CST (which I believe is 13:00 GMT, but I'm awful at time zone conversion). So PLEASE send prelims in. If you have any questions about how I handle anything, I'll be happy to address it, but I figure you all know the basic drill. So... Happy stabbing, and see you on Monday, April 9th at 8:00 AM CST (13:00 GMT). Country assignments are below. They were semi-random. In the blitz we try to give players a different kind of country than they had in round one (center countries get edge countries, etc). That's tough to arrange, but I feel like I did the best I could. And I always liek hearing what the players are thinking, so please feel free to make comments or insights to me with your moves! Have fun!

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
