Catalan Chronicle, 14 March, 1903








*Austrian fleet sinks - hundreds of hands feared lost!*





*Deaths not in vain, however, as Trieste is saved!*





*Mutiny in Liverpool as fleet refuses to leave port!*


*Russians and Turks exchange Constantinople for Bulgaria!*



Welcome to the fourteenth edition of your inscrutable Catalan Chronicle!


My apologies once again for the delay to the game. But what a turn it has turned out to be, with battles all over the continent!

Russia's Constantinople fleet can retreat to Smyrna, or to the Black Sea. The deadline for these retreats (Summer 03) is also that of your press deadline for the Autumn turns, namely tomorrow -

Wednesday 3 July 2000GMT. Autumn 03 is due Friday 5 July, 2000GMT.



And now we have some press, hot off the telegraph wires, straight from our Barcelona newsdesk!

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


From our Vienna correspondent:

Russia: Going to get you into Bul, then need to focus on Italy.
Germany: How about Mun -> Tyl? I'll share the spoils with you. France doesn't want them obviously.

Turkey: Sorry buddy. Italy's being too much of a pain for me to side with you.
 ---------------------------------------------------------------


Russia to I and A:  Anglo German alliance at hand.  That will produce an
EGT draw, no?  Shouldn't we respond with a AIR alliance.  To make it a
functional AIRF vs. GET?


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

Yo!  What the hell is youse problem
Big Bear?  I's telled youse to leave my good friend Turkey alone, did
youse listen?  Nah youse tink that you is better dan us all.  WELL YOUSE
AIN'T!  Turkey is my buddy and he and I's is gonna kicks you in the
ass! 
 
Hey Aussie Hungry fellow, care to join in the Bear butt kickin'?
 
I am Italian and I am pissed off!

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


France to all: Won't anyone help me against the mighty england!  Please!!

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


The crazed emperor paced across the floor. Those Damn Turks aren't
moving, letting the pesky Russians box them in. The Austrian is a waste
of time, running in circles, fearing the Italian NAVY of all the jokes!
France is wavering in the fight against England, I fear another armada
coming along. Germany can't decide which direction to turn next. And all
this time, we're stuck sitting on the sidelines, not even playing the
game! Screw this! These leaders are all terrible and if we mobilize NOW,
we'll crush the entire lot of them. Cyprus will Rule the World!

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


I
miei amici, mi sembra che più le cose cambiano più restano le stesse.
Vi prego di Germania aiuto me la rimozione dell'Austria. O almeno mi
lasciano. La ringrazio. Non posso aiutare l'inglese o il francese contro
di voi. MI considero un amico. La Russia lascia sola Turchia, è debole e
sempre più debole, L'Austria è la vera minaccia che ci troviamo ad
affrontare.
Grazie, Italia
 
 For those who do not understand the only TRUE language.
  
My friends,
 
It seems that the more things change the more they stay the same.  I ask that you Germany aid me in the removal of Austria .  Or at least leave me to it.  Thank you.  I will not help the English or the French against you.  I consider you a friend.  Russia leave Turkey alone, he is weak and getting weaker, Austria is the true threat we all face.
 
Thank you,
Italy
 ---------------------------------------------------------------


France to A, I and R: Anglo German alliance at hand.  That will produce
an EGT draw, no?  Shouldn't we... um... you respond with a AIR alliance.
 To make it a functional AIRF vs. GET?

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


This concludes our latest edition of the Catalan Chronicle,
we
hope you've enjoyed reading it. Please do send in your news stories,
thoughts, dreams, ambitions, and reviews, however mendacious, for us all
to enjoy.

Next retreat and press deadline is Summer 03, due Wednesday 3 July 2000GMT. Your next main deadline is Autumn 03 Friday 5 July 2000GMT.

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.
