Guns, Germs and Steel 1264 / DC110 - Fall 1880 - A Tune Sung In The Key Of Phat!
- "THE FAT LADY SINGS" TOPS CHARTS AROUND THE WORLD
- ARCTIC PENGUIN SIGHTINGS DOCUMENTED BY BRITISH SCIENTISTS IN EXILE
- USA RELOCATES CAPITOL TO RUPERTLAND
- DUTCH TO WORLD: ALL YOUR CENTERS ARE BELONG TO US!
Yes, folks... You can breath that sigh of relief and wonder now. After 522 days - Guns, Germs and Steel wraps in a Dutch solo. My hearty congratulations to Rudi for blazing through this onslaught and bending the board to his will. An Imperial game - even a "short" one - is no easy feat to solo in, and I take my hat off in awe. Very well done!
And huge commendations go out to all our other players as well for playing this meat grinder out to the bitter end. Any game of this variant is, by nature, brutal. My thanks to everyone involved for their efforts. This one deserves a HUGE pat on the back. =)
The business of Fall 1880: All the end-game proposals failed once again. However Holland broke through the stale-mate lines in Russia and took matters into their own hands - with the Tsars assistance. With 70 supply centers reached, we close the book on Guns, Germs and Steel.
I'd love to see end-of-game statements from everyone on this one. There were some results that I still can't quite bring myself to believe...
But, enough with the editorializing Trout. Give the people the results... =P Fall 1880 - the final turn of Guns, Germs and Steel 1264 / DC110 - is attached below. Congratulations once again to Rudi and to all the players of this monster. It's been one hell of a ride. *grin*
Cheers!
