Do you know who your friends are yet? Can you??believe??all the press that you read?
We had a break in the Russia/Turkey stalemate... kind of. ??Let's see what happens there next, shall we? Austria and Italy are still going at it too- Austria just hasn't gone away like people had planed. France has landed on the shores of England, even while England held's it's own in Sweden.??
Austria however was dislodged from both its territories, so I will need
retreat orders by 8:30 pm Saturday MDT (2:30 21-10-12 GMT) or sooner?
One unit will need to retreat, the other disbanded.
France and Italy will each get one build. Please submit build orders??orders by 8:30 pm Saturday MDT (2:30 21-10-12 GMT) as well. Italy, I will try to get you information on Austria's plans before your build orders will be due.
Spring 04 orders will then be due on Monday, October 22 at 8:30 pm MDT 02:30 23-10-12 GMT)
Again, sorry for the delay in these results... meetings that go till 11pm don't help me get the fun stuff done.

Deep Throat to Silver Tongue: Phase Two of our operation is beginning, you know we gonna come up trumps baby!
----------------------------------------
England to France:
I must admit your moves are very alarming, ecpecially vacating Brest and heading to NAO.
However I'm taking my chances and hope this doesn't mean your'e heading towards me, as this will ruin
both of us. I will vacate Eng per your request hoping for the good.
----------------------------------------
Italy to turkey
There
is little to gain from you propping up ah and further boxing yourself
in. Allow me into gre and I will reciprocate by helping you into Serbia.
We can
renegotiate from there. I pose no threat to Smyrna.
??
Italy to France
Please
feel free to dmz mar/pie area. I have shown my good will and changed
direction. By doing this we both have security, you can reclaim full
control over
Bur and you leave mar free for a build should I ever play dirty.
??
Italy to Germany
Please
get out of my backyard! Don???t even think of taking vie, or I will
seriously consider removing you from my Christmas Card list.
??
Italy to Russia
Let???s still be friends!
??
Italy to England
Well done. Heligoland looks nice, bel looks even better, plus fra would probably like channel dmz!
----------------------------------------
Germany to England. Honestly I
had assumed someone had mimicked you there, since Germany attacking
Russia while England masses in Scandinavia is pretty silly... if you're
Germany anyhow. ??Perhaps you felt the same about spreading yourself into
Russia. Well you have made your choice, as much as I don't agree with
the long term planning. I hope it wasn't Italy's self-serving diplomacy
that influenced you. I will try to keep them both busy as long as I can,
let me know if you have a change of heart.
Germany
to France. It seems there isn't to be a three way, and now I ask you to
look beyond the short term. Russia is going to be pretty well off soon,
I guess I should be screaming "board leader! board leader!". Hopefully
you wait a little while at least to see how things work out. ??Italy
talks about me as the "task at hand" as though I am a threat to anyone
other than him, so I am hopeful that you will leave me alone enough to
continue to annoy him at least. ??As much as I want Austria to be in
this, I still think it is too late, and now dealing with England I won't
be able to help him much. ??You know where I hope you planted your
fleet, although the west coast of England is pretty miserable in the
fall from what I hear. Italy has moved away from you because he has
other issues now (Austria is now playing), but I wouldn't take my eye
off him. And Oh My do I ever hope you supported Belgium.
Germany
to Turkey. ??I'm hoping you stay the course. ??Russia can't move for
another season or two at least, as long as you don't change plans, and
he has now been given free reign everywhere else.----------------------------------------
...just keep swimming
