[quote:b36a84695b] Gentleman. I need to seek 3 replacements for the second round. I thank all the players for playing through the first game. I ask the players, from here on, not to discuss the second game (ie prefered variant/map) until we have all our 7 players signed up...... although we may have less than 4 options to choose from. I will update you as soon as i have 7 players. Stephen aka Deathblade_penguin www.diplomaticcorp.com

The walls shook as explosions rocked the ground above them - dust sifting from the ceiling with each bone-jarring thump to collect on the ground. The Tsar pointed at the map spread on the table before them. "Nyet, comrades. This cannot be!" His finger hovered above the black dot that represented Vienna, as if somehow he could change it back from black to red. The pink-clad Austrian before him grimaced. "Unfortunately, its true. The attack from Tyrolia was too much for us to hold." "But can they really be at nineteen supply centers?" The Italian questioned - his voice cracking. The Sultan smirked. "Their gains came in the west, from France, not from our Eastern centers." He sat in his chair quietly smoking his hookah and trying to ignore the sounds of the war above them. "We might as well all be waving white flags." At that moment, the door opened and the French President walked in. His wardrobe consisted of shining white garments, from his stylish coat to his burnished shoes. A white beret topped his smiling face. Whistling to himself, he stopped as he suddenly noticed that the other four men were glaring at him. "What?" he asked. "Something I said?" ------------------------------ And with France, so goes the board. Congratulations to Mike Sims for a sweeping 19 center German solo victory in DC-104. Finessing his way back into Vienna, the German also storms into Marseilles and Spain to seal the deal. And with that, the first round of the Invitational comes to a close. There was one retreat required from Spain, but it had only the Gulf of Lyons to go to. But of course, that is purely window-dressing with the game resolved. My thanks to all you players who made this game a very memorable one. EOG's are, of course, extremely welcome. I would greatly look forward to what all of you have to say about this crazy game of ours. It's been an honour being the GM for this - my hat is off to all of you. As always, please let me know if I've made a mistake at all in the adjudication. For those who keep track of these things, the last few Subject Headers came from the great White Stripes album "Get Thee Behind Me Satan." Cheers! (And congratulations once again to Mike..)
