Captain of the Watch

Farsightedness: The Butterfly Effect states that a butterfly that flaps its wings in Malaysia could cause a typhoon in British Columbia. So too could minor variations in one part of the board affect play across the board. The Captain of Watch asesses the board for all possible impacts - both immediate and long-term.

For Immediate Release...

Hi France
Is there any way we can disentangle ourselves? We are heading for a stalemate and Germany are heading for an easy ride. I can use my fleets more productively securing Greece or getting tri, Germany will be delighted to see us locking horns. I???m in a position as Italy to be flexible and switch east rather than west. What will your gains be while Germany continues to rampage? Tun? I out number you in fleets but ultimately you will make gains but they will be much slower than your neighbour???s gain? In a year or two when Germany is 2-3 centres stronger and you are maybe one centre better off you will rue the day you gave him an easy ride. Cut a deal with eng and move on ger.??Six of his seven centres are coastal, yet he has only one fleet to your combined force of five.

As a gesture of good will I will withdraw my fleets, dmz wms naf gol. Let me (and everyone else) know your thoughts

Italy

--------------------------

France to Italy Confused

?

I'm not interested in 'playing everybody else's game', I'm just trying to defend myself against you in what I think is the best way I can in a gunboat game. You've displayed hostile moves to me since winter 01, I take defensive action against you whilst recovering from an admittedly poor set of autumn 01 moves, and now you accuse me of 'letting my tummy get rubbed' by Germany? I take it your attacking me rather than acting directly against Germany is completely different, is it?

If you're serious about wanting to do something about Germany's growth, then I suggest you stop attacking me (both in press and on the board, 'dude' Wink

and come up with some constructive suggestions as to how that might be achieved.??

France to Germany:

I'd appreciate it if you didn't move to Bur this turn. There's no need for you to do this - I think you may have enough on your plate otherwise.

For Immediate Release....

---------------------------------

England to Germany: Let's do it the other way round, help me to Swe and I'll help you to Mos / StP

---------------------------------

France to Germany: I appreciate your not moving on Marseilles in the spring. It is my most fervent hope that this will mark the beginning of a long and mutually beneficial partnership. You are absolutely correct that my eyes are turned southwards - and I am hoping your Tyrolian army will continue moving in the same direction. There will be plenty of help from me if that is the case.

France to Turkey: The President sends the Sultan his greetings! Although you are currently defending your northern borders I make a similar offer to you as to our friend the Kaiser - move west against the Italians and you'll get plenty of help from me. You have just as much to fear from the developing R-I axis as Germany and me.

France to England: Russia seems intent on depriving you of your Scandinavian possessions - defend them as strongly as you need, your southern border is safe from me.

---------------------------------

From the Tsar (perhaps the real one???.you decide):

??Italy: It seems I have a friend, a deal is a deal.

??
Turkey Confused

???Shall we bounce yet again?????I truly hope so.????That will give my new BFF time to come in through your completely undefended coastline.

??
Germany Confused

???Too much too soon.??

England Confused

???Support me in Swe, to keep it from the Germans and I will concede it to you as we march onBerlin??together!

??
France Confused

???So much open country to your East???sure looks tasty now doesn???t it?
