Message from Germany to England

Well Ben it's time for drastic meassures and weird and bizzar moves.

I dont need comformation but here is one move I WILL BE DOING.
i WILL BE PUSHING den - swe.

I leave it up to you to decide if you cut support from NWY and support me into SWE allowing us to pick up NWY in the fall. If on the other hand you decide to use this information and support yourself into NWY is up to you.

I am even a little tempted to push for PRU & SIL just to have some sort of revenge on the Russian and at the same time allowing France to take MUN & KIE. Rather a french solo that a draw excluding me.

So it's up to you. I dont need a reply to this press but DEN - SWE has been ordered.



Message from Germany to Germany

Hmmmmm the anti tripple alliance from s01 is still causing headaches. I cant blame Russia. I too would be suggesting SKA take Denmark.

The french build in MAR was interesting but a safe investment for the future once he picks up MUN and HOL.
France is firmly in the saddle now. There is not much I can do at this moment. It will be interesting to see what Russia has to say. My last ray of hope is that Ben sees the French danger and decides on the northern route.



Message from Russia to Germany

Tony,

I'm really pressed for time today, but wanted to get off a message.

I know you'll see A War as threatening. I put that there because I expected
Turkey to build F Ank, and then an AT to form, and I wanted defense for Gal.
That didn't happen, so now War is looking threatening. The reason I asked if
you are willing to take Nth is that I thought I might need to build defensive
in the south. We can still talk about Swe-Ska, then in Fall Ska S Den-Nth. I
realize that's not guarantee of success if Ben defends Nth with Lon, but it
at least forces the disband of Ska.

Again, I'm in a rush and unavailable much of the day, but wanted to check in.

I will consult the Parliament and figure out the best tactic. I am hopeful
you understand - it seems you do - if I don't tell you in advance what that
will be.

I would agree with that - who wants to be eliminated in a draw. Yuck. But
of course you are about a thousand miles from that bridge - do not cross it
yet. Still I would understand you going to SIL, etc.; surely that A WAR is
not pro-German.

Well, you got a reply anyway.

Good luck.

It was ment to compensate a Turkish build, I forget which one. The Russian
did press me to explain.
I will ignore him in press this turn, make him sweat a little ;-)
But you know the score, always offer all builds to one opponent, prefably
the strongest. It would be my last dying act.
Then I can just sit back and watch you to finally come to blows. Its funny
that 99 out of 100 S1901 moves always hold surprises, now only mine did. I
must admit though I pissed myself laughing when I received press regarding
Frances move to PIE. I couldnt stop laughing at the context of the text
where they quewried kweereed kwireed quireed kwiried (chose one) the sanity

Yeah, that was pretty funny. It was a low risk opening for me, assuming I
could trust France to stay out of ENG.

Well, good luck this spring.

Message from Austria to Germany and Italy

Tony & Andy,

Following the recent constructions and Andy's overture,
it would seem that renewing the AIG alliance is the thing
to do. If we don't, the eF & Rt alliances will make short
work of us.

Of course, Russia is saying that War isn't aimed at me;
but even if it were true, it will only mean that he intend
to surround me by moving against Germany.

Hopefully, Andy really mean what he say this time, and
will demilitarize Venice; but if he doesn't, I intend to
favor Russia's expansion while hurting Andy as much as
possible.

This being clear, how do we proceed?

Philippe



Message from Germany to England

Just received some information. AI want to reactivate the never active AGI
alliance. Maybe the Juggernaut is about to roll. Interesting enough
information to pass on. You owe me one ;-) support into Sweden will suffice.



Message from Germany to Austria and Italy

Well I have my own problems up north and am more than willing to share them.

I have received the same information from Russia regarding WAR. So I wonder
who it is intended for.

I am more than willing to see ven in pie, tun in wes and vie in boh.
Unrealistic but pleasing to the mind.
If either of you has a magic wand then please do wave wave wave.

For the spring I have my hands full in GErmany. I may be facing EFR all at
once.

I have considered pru and sil but by going there I would only be giving
france all my sc's. Even if AG managed to take WAR then I for one probably
wont be able to build.

But if either of you have any ideas then I am all ears. Not for long as my
head will sonn be rolling.

you support me into Sweden. I build a fleet in Kiel.
you retreat from NTH, I then take London and EDI in one year and swap them

Hmm, let me check my map.

Ok, as long as I get to finish out the game as a one center puppet in STP.

Agreed?

Ben



Message from Austria to Germany and Italy

What about the following?

Germany: Hol-Ruh, Kie s Hol-Ruh, Ber-Pru, Mun-Boh & Den-Bal or hold.
Italy: Ven-Pie, Tun-Wes, Ion-Tys, Gre-Bul & Rom-Tus for convoy to Spa.
Austria: Vie-Boh, Ser s Gre-Bul, Bud-Rum & Adr-Ion.

Major points being:
-Russia can't get more then one army near Germany.
-Any repositionning of RT fleets in the south see Turkey lose Bul.
-France lose the initiative to Italy in the south.

This leave me wide open to a stab by Andy, but I don't have
much choice and will have to rely on Andy's survival instinct.

Philippe



Message from Germany to Germany

I have just taken time to download the map history and I reviewed my moves.



What a bunch of crap moves they were in all instances following S1901M.

Looking back I query my sanity at the time, I can only conclude that I am
sick.

I hope I can rectify the problem or at least find a cure.

I need a kick in my complacency.



I smell a juggernaut and a possible RF. The Italian build does not suggest
that AI have sorted their problems out. The Turkish build however suggest
that RT have sorted theirs out, at least for now. I wouldnt be surprised to
see an IR, FT forming. The north will be the most interesting for me. I do
believe that England would be wise to go after NWY from SKA. I just hope
that he believes me one more time.



Message from Germany to England

How do you interperate the WAR build? a possible FR alliance? GAL/BOH to FR
and then divide England between themselves?



Message from Germany to Russia

Yes the build was a little concerning although it did open doors which I
thought were closed.



The English disband and French build still points to a strong EF alliance.



Austria informed me that you informed him that the build was not aimed at
him.

The side effects being AI's wish to rekindle the never allive AGI central
alliance.



All I can ask of you is can you support me in Denmark. I have not yet seen
any crack in the EF alliance.

At the moment all I can say to England is that I will give all my SC's to
France. Your support from Sweden would at least slow their advance down. If
England has no deal with you then I am expecting NTH - HEL, LON - NTH.



Message from Germany to England

I hate it when you beg, but make it a one center puppet in Paris and you are

Russia told me it was anti-German, but the information content is low, as of
course he would say that.

You drive a hard bargain. I will look into available apartments, as soon as
I stop picking my toenails.

Ben



Message from Germany to Austria and Italy

It would be interesting to know what has brought you two together? Is it the
juggernaut, the French build or both?
It would also be good to hear from Italy.
I dont mind playing dead this year and losing MUN, DEN and maybe HOL. That
is what will probably happen.
I am expecting nth - hel, lon - nth, ska - den supported by swe.
If I am going to die then I would like more insight to know for sure that I
am dying for a worthy cause.



Message from Germany to England

> Russia told me it was anti-German, but the information content is low, as

He told me it was anti Turkish and definitely not anti German. He was
worried that Turkey build an army.
As of course he would say that. Austria informed me that Russia informed him
that the unit wasnt anti Austrian
As of course Russia would say. The turkish build however does point to RT.

> I will look into available apartments, as soon as
> I stop picking my toenails.>

How old fashioned, I usually bite mine or have my wife pick them for me.

Any way speaking of hard bargains here is the deal. No matter what happens I
will be moving DEN - SWE.
I think I owe you this much. I am expect NTH - HEL, LON - NTH, SKA - DEN
supported by SWE.

On the other hand Austria has asked me to move BER - SIL and MUN - BOH.
In one swoop I could lose DEN, HOL, MUN and stand a remote chance of gaining
WAR.

This in conjunction with DEN - SWE could be my last dying act, go out with a
blast kind of thing.
I have started up 4 other games. The above moves may make it interesting for
the gallery (if anyone actually signed on).
Its bed time here, speak to you soon.

In truth, Andy only told me I didn't have to fear him
anymore since he had bigger problems. Since it seem
to really be the case, I opted to believe him.

Now, I would hope to hear more from him...

And if there were RT conflict, you would expect /F/ SEV, rather than an
army, on this board.

I could not handle your game load. I am at 4 right now - one of them I
picked up in what I thought was the endgame, but it turned out it wasn't -
and it's just too many.

You mentioned a full move on the French...which is possible.

Message from Germany to England

I have 10 games at the moment, seven of which are press games.
I looked back at my moves in this game using the map history, what a bunch
of amateur moves I made.

I am wondering what caused it. Maybe to many late nights. I have played
games where I considered everybody an enemy and treated them as such. I had
better results then than in this game. How I managed to make it to rank 340
with these types of moves I dont know. It must be a dip in my diplomacy
tatctical skills just as these occur in golf.

Question is how to continue. I can only gurantee DEN - SWE. I have asked for
an explanation from IA regarding there sudden friendship. Is it the
Juggernaut that spooked them or the French build or both. I dont mind dying
for a good cause. Especially not if I have made such a mess of moves when in
hindsight basic diplomacy tatctical moves would have surviced.

Any tips on which way to go with MUN, BER, KIE, HOL?

You know the moves I am expecting. I am just wondering if you are keeping an
eye on the big picture.

Hmmmmm blaze of glory exit (attack sil/boh) or just stick to common sense
and try and salvage what can be salvaged. Once again the only set move is
DEN - SWE. I have to leave you with at least one word kept concerning moves.
Interesting though that Russia has probably lied about moves in scandinavia
as much as I did.
If you dont think I will keep my word then expect DEN - HEL.
But as you well know my only chance is you taking Norway so DEN - SWE it
will be.

Reading between the lines of press I've gotten, RT is pretty likely. Plus
as we said, the board does not deny it.

If you're not good - like I'm not good - then your expectations will be
lower. Try it!

Yeah, looking back at games I am often disappointed at mistakes I've made at
a couple of critical points.

IA is a natural response if they, like you and I, sniff an RT.

> Any tips on which way to go with MUN, BER, KIE, HOL?
Depends. I would expect an attack from Russia and an attack from France, in
your shoes. So, as you've said in so many words, pick your poison.

I try.

Ok. Last time I told you I was counting on you doing what you said, and it

without expressing any reliance on it.

Message from Russia to all

Everyone,

Sometime Thursday afternoon I was hit hard by a bug (cold or flu) of
somesort which completely wiped me out. I've been pretty much out of
commission for the last 48-60ish hours. I'll try to catch up with
communications tonight and tomorrow, but wanted to let folks know that I'm
not intentionally ignoring anyone.

Which is not at all surprising. Not building F StP was a hard call for me,
and was in part due to how things changed in the south in the waning
moments of the turn. There were two problem I saw with F StP. One is that
it would basically force England to take your support against me -- and
because I know you want to see pressure eased, I was not confident that you
wouldn't offer that support. Granted you can still offer that support, and
England can pretty much take Scandinavia with and perhaps even without your
help, but without F StP, he is not *forced* to move that way. The second
thing is that I did not want to build two fleets, so when I finally decided
against F StP, it was F Sev and not F StP. Late negotiations led to the
agreement where I did not build F Sev, and I didn't fully reconsider the F
StP decision.

I don't think you need my support in Spring, though if you are right, you
will in Fall.

What might actually be better is if I tell England that I'll support him to
Den. That way maybe he'll attack you in place without moving to Hel. Also,
if we know that he's going to be attacking Den, then we can disband the
fleet in Ska. If he moves Ska-Den, then Kie S Den, Den S Swe-Ska works. If
he moves Ska S Nth-Den, then Swe S Den-Ska, Kie-Den disbands it while still
bouncing Nth-Den.

Which mean that I need all my units. I am looking at losing DEN, HOL, MUN

that you guys help me retake MUN. Ormaybe even MUN - SIL supported by BER.

Russia to hit GAL with two units too.
But hurry I have already submitted some other crap moves in my battle
against EFR up north and west.



Message from Germany to Austria and Italy

Guys it is bed time here. We are not going to be able to negotiate final
moves before the deadline.
My orders are in, let us hope one of the others is late so that we can
negotiate further. For now I am just thinking of myself. I have not ordered
to PRU or SIL or BOH.

Guys, thanks for the discussion! Out of the blue, one confirm
his participation and the other prefer his own plan, but both
don't know what my original plan was. Got to love you ;-)

Now I don't know what I will be doing and the only thing I
ask from Andy is that he vacate Venice to turn it into a dmz.
