PREV Spring 1901 Adjudication: NEXT

We have now a lesson in email filters and the *importance of including "DC 293" in your subject line*. I have just stumbled upon updated Russian orders which leave Galicia vacant. Those sighs of relief you hear surely are emanating from Austria. The rest is the okay. You will find the newest .dpy attached (but I am not updating the S1901 .gif file).

We have arrived at the opening salvo of the Winter Blitz. Happy are they who put their trust in God. Wise are they who do not put too much trust in anybody else.

So, S1901 is accomplished. That brings us to S1901 retreats, which are due tomorrow. Eric, I'll need an order for your army in Liverpool :) Everybody else can start submitting prelims for the F1901 movement, due on Thursday at 1000 CST.

As you can see (if I remember the attachments), I will attach .gif images of the movement/retreat/adjustment and of the current map. I will also attach the RealPolitik file (.dpy). All of these will also be available on the DC website at:

www.diplomaticcorp.com/?game_id=dc293

DiplomaticCorp has a facebook page. You can join it via Facebook or connect to it from the DC homepage. Regardless, I wonder if Jean-Luc read my latest post from New Year's Eve:

"I've discovered (at least in no-press) that the Balkan Gambit / presumed AI alliance is so prevalent these days that Italy can often make very good gains by moving to Trieste in S1901. I think it's time to swing the pendulum back toward early Austrian exits."

Oh, pendulum! Swing, pendulum, swing!

Of course, Jean-Luc and David may be executing a Key Lepanto variant, in which case, I've just tossed a giant red herring into the frying pan. GMs really shouldn't comment on the game, don't you agree? Because we think we know everything when we really only know the map.

That being the case, I won't comment upon the delicate Western balance which includes a Channel Opening by the English, an apparent DMZ in Burgundy, and an immediate French move to Spain. And don't even ask me about that Russian army [not] in Galicia...
