Here's some news and views from across Europe for you to enjoy:
---------------------------------------------------------------
This
is PERUN, GOD OF WAR! Heed my message, mortal scum! The Italians have
done well this turn, but I have not favoured them! What is this
treachery!! Turkey and Russia fight over the meaningless Black Sea,
while England sends a useless army to Belgium! Dear Loki, is there a
competent leader amongst these filthy slime-covered mongrels? France,
Austria, and Turkey must all converge in the Mediterranean before their
demise is written in runes and their warriors sent to Valhalla. HEAR
ME, MISERABLE URCHINS! BURN ROME!
---------------------------------------------------------------
England to Russia: Better move for spring is Gob - Bal. Lots more options in fall then
---------------------------------------------------------------
Russia -- gladly accept your offer for Bul. I'll press my
other armies towards Italy, tying his forces up so France can take him
out from the West.
Italy -- don't know what you were thinking, but it's coming to haunt you now.
Turkey
-- Greece is on the table. Italy cannot hold, and we shouldn't let him.
I'd appreciate a one year grant of Greece to build more anti-Italian
forces.
