No problem, even though IR are both playing for strong positions,
things are not as clear as I thought between those two. Anyway,
given the end results, I'm not surprise that you didn't take my
warning too seriously.
Regarding this fall, have you figured out a plan yet and will there be
any place in it for me, beside getting attacked that is?
Philippe
Message from Turkey to Turkey
Well, it appears that my trying to play IR off against each other has
finally ended up in FIR working together to some extent. I guess I
shouldn't be surprised, since I dicked around for far to long before
actually getting anywhere.
Russia is clearly not someone I can work with in the long run, if only
because he's far to dangerous. I need to secure that flank before I work
west. If thing go really, really well this turn, he might lose 5
centers. Unlikely, but I need to work toward that. If I can maybe reform
AIT, I might be able to get somewhere.

Message from Turkey to Russia
Thanks for letting me know. I figured that not getting a message back to
you before the deadline might be confusing.
Regardless, we certainly need to move forward now. I'm open to focusing
on Greece and not worrying too much about Rum. With your position in
Tyr, you should be able to give Austria a hard time.
jason
Message from Turkey to England
Well, it looks like France made a nice deal with Italy to disengage.
That can't be good for either of us. Hopefully, though, you can make
some progress in Scandinavia.
Russia is claiming that his moves were just a big misunderstanding,
trying to ward off a stab he feared from me. Nice story, but I somehow
doubt it.
Any particular way that I can help you out this turn?
jason
Message from Turkey to Austria
Well, I did take your warning somewhat seriously, but I can't say I
expected a supported attack on Rum. I figured he'd defend Sev instead.
Regardless, yes, I think there is a place for you in the plan. I won't
be supporting Bud this coming turn, although with Russia breathing down
your neck, you might not be able to take advantage of it. What would you
like from me?
jason
Message from Turkey to Italy
Hey Andy,
Long time, no talk. I see that you and Russia and France have come to
some sort of an understanding, although I'm wondering if A Tyr was a
part of it.
Let me propose that we recommit ourselves to working with each other.
Russia has shown that he's not trustworthy, and France has given you
some space to work in Austria. Do you think we can make a go of it?

If France stays off my back. If France comes after me, it is a small matter
for me to turn my back on Russia and let him grow in the North & in the
German/Lowland centers. Our interests coincide. . .

:-) No doubt he is aware of the adage, that it is not an attack if the
target does not think it is an attack. Why would he tell you he's attacking
you?
> Any particular way that I can help you out this turn?
Defend yourself. See that? Our interests coincide. Let's try to keep him
from getting any builds.

Well....Russia and I havent but yes...France is letting me hold against
Russia

I told you that as long as you didnt make supported attacks on Greece we
are all good and its the truth.
I dont expect for their to be much of Austria to take after this season,
but your assistance with anything that is left would be great.
If we are going to work together to slow down Russia, you need at least
one more army. How do you plan on getting it.

Thanks for the quick response. Just knowing that I'm
not a target of yours is good to know. As for more, I
will need some time to look at a map and figure it out.
One thing is sure, the more sc you take from Russia
and Italy, the safer I will be.
Philippe
Message from Germany to Austria and Turkey
Hi guys, still hard to figure out what is going on over there. That means
that I can feel free to give advice which may sound a load of bull. VIE -
BUD supported by TRI. BUL - RUM supported by SER. GAL - WAR and BLA - SEV.
Hahahahahaha..... or not? either way my time is limited. Those that are
about to die salute you.

No question, our interests coincide on many levels. I'll see how well I
can hold Russia off. Who knows, maybe we can force a disband or two?
jason

Well, I'll see what I can do for you. Good luck holding on. If you want
to go with Germany's suggestion, let me know.
jason
Message from Turkey to Italy
Fair enough, then.
I assume he'll hold Rum with Ukr and attack with Bud. I'll try an
all-out attack to try and take as many centers as possible. Hopefully,
England can make some progress in the north to whittle him down some also.
jason
Message from Turkey to Austria and Germany
Thanks for the suggestions. Very aggressive, but certainly will hurt if
it works.

Hopefully, if I am not attacked by France.
Ben
Message from Russia to Turkey
Okay, so how would you like to proceed? You can retake Rum with Gal-Rum
(and this time I can't really complain about A Rum!) and take Gre with your
three units on it. Is that what you are thinking? I have to figure out
where I get the most leverage -- trying to press north or trying to press
south. Keeping Andy backed up will give you room to take Ven once you are
in Tri. What's your thinking?
--- Eric
Message from France to Turkey
Jason:
Interesting turn. I appreciate the turn back toward Andy -- took a
little heat off me and will get me back on my feet. I know you're
concerned about me barrelling into the Mediterranean, but don't you
think it makes more sense to come after Italy from both sides than from
one? Even after we take care of him, we'll both have our hands full with
Russia and England. I don't see any reason that the two of us can
coexist going into the endgame.
What do you make of the move to Rumania? All is not well in the world of
RT?
Erik
Message from Turkey to Russia
Yes, I think those moves make sense. That should give me a build and
reestablish my line correctly.
Once I hold Gre, we can go back to you supporting me into Tri while you
can press against Germany and England. With France at his back, I doubt
he'll have much wiggle room.
jason
Message from Turkey to France
Good to hear from you, I was just about to write.
Eric is claiming Rum was just a mistake and a misunderstanding, but I
have my doubts. Right now, I'm hoping England can take a little pressure
off me in the north, but I think your moves have him a little spooked.
Agreed that FT can be an excellent endgame alliance, and one I'd be
happy to see. Right now, the two of us just need to get ourselves firmly
established.

Hi Jason,
Sorry, I got really busy and had some internet problems.
Obviously, I haven't had much time to think about it and
I'm prepare to defer to your judgement regarding the
situation.
How do you want to go about it exactly?
Philippe
Message from Germany to all
Once again I have found myself seduced by Russia, England & France
I will roll a dice
1 = ruh - hol, mun - kie
2 = mun - kie supported by ruh
3 = ruh - kie supported by mun
4 = mun - ber, ruh - kie
5 = ruh s mun, mun s pie - tyr
6 = ruh - hol, mun - ber
7 = ruh hold, mun hold
No blowing or making sudden movements once I release the dice
Message from Germany to all
Dice rolled.....thanks for not influencing the outcome ;-)
Message from Turkey to Austria
I'll take out Bud, so if you just mutually support, you should be fine.
If he goes Bud - Tri, Boh S Tyr - Vie, you'll lose it, but nothing we
can do about that.

The understanding being that Bud will be ceded to
me afterward I hope...
