Message from Turkey to Italy
I know we had discussed F Ank, but I'm afraid that after looking at the
situation, I couldn't afford to completely turn my back to you. It
wasn't an easy choice, but I felt I needed balance.

Jason,
It looks like you made a deal with the Russian to come attack me.
You will see from the French builds that I am currently in check.
He has lied to you every turn, Im not quite sure what it would take for
him to convince you that I was the threat.
I just left the AEG open for an entire year when I could have gone there.
Help me out here, how is this in ANY way balancing....

I don't think one fleet is any cause for concern. I appreciate the fact
that you stayed out of Aeg, and I'm not looking to take you on right
now. I'm much more interested in the Austrian.
But between you yelling about the Russian and him yelling about you, I
dare say both of you are smelling blood in my direction. I just want to
make sure that neither of you gets too tempted to cherry pick empty centers.
I know there's a decent change that A Sev will head for Arm, but
unfortunately building in Ank leaves my back wide open for you. Smy
doesn't threaten you, but it does give me a mild bit of cover.

With a locked enemy in Austria, and France building F MAR..I think I am in
more than a bit of a jam.

I have never been in a position to cherry pick anything, he has lied to
you every turn.
Why the suspicion.

And what exactly would I do now that I wouldnt have done when you had one
less unit to defend with.

Hi Jason,
So, what should I expect from you now?

Jason,
Looks good! You will be at least in Ser by Fall, and with just a touch of
luck, you'll get Ser and Gre.
I'll get back to you later. I'm on Jury Duty today, so may not have net
access until tonight or tomorrow.

Jason,
Do you know what you are doing with A Bul? Andy asked me before the builds if
I would be willing to tap Bud so that he can take Ser, and he hasn't
rescinded the request. Are you still planning to offer that support?
Actually, I really want to know if you are planning on *ordering* the
support. If you are not, or if you don't want it to be successful, I'd like
to know, so I don't waste a move.
Thanks, and good luck! If Andy thinks you are going to support him (whether
or not you do), you are in very good shape.
--- Eric
Message from Turkey to Russia
No concrete plans for A Bul right now. Right now, Andy's a little
annoyed at my build, so we'll see how that goes down.

Why the suspicion? Isn't that why we play Dip? :-)
Seriously, though, builds are in. How can we cooperate in the Balkans
this turn?

good point.

Can I get a support to SER again.
Message from France to Turkey
England and I don't actually have much of a plan to keep him in check.
England's been bickering with him over Norway and I've been trying to
figure out how he can help me against Russia. Meanwhile, he's grown to
seven centers.
Anyway, I suppose he and England must have worked something out, as the
Russian builds were clearly pretty friendly to Ben. Now, what is he going
to do with A War?
Austria wrote me somewhat despondantly, though I think he's more confused
about the recent turn of events than anything else. I don't think he
appreciates the degree to which his neighbors have joined against him.
When Austria's gone, how long do you think the RT friendship will hold
out? I know he's been relatively friendly with Andy all game, so you
might want to watch out for a squeeze from the two of them. I'd hate to
see Russia lock up the entire Eastern side of the board.

Jason...
After building a fleet in Smyrna...you have gotten damn quiet.
After asking me what I would like you to do, and me telling you, you have
gone completely silent.
What is going on.
Help me out here...do I have supports to Serbia??
Thanks
Andy
Message from Turkey to Italy
My apologies on the delay. It's been a busy week, and I just forgot to
get back to you.
You can count on my support into Ser.
jason
Message from Turkey to France
Well, RT's been on-again, off-again, so we'll see how it goes down. I'm
trying to balance the two of them, without simply angering them both. :-)

Support orders for Gre - Ser. I assume your shuffle is still on?

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.
--- Eric
Message from Russia to Turkey
Jason,
So a couple of questions: Do you want the Gre-Ser move to succeed? That is,
do you want me to move Gal-Bud to cut support? If we do that, I could see
me supporting you into Ser afterwards, since that should drastically reduce
the number of armies that AI have in the area after the move takes place.
Is that what you see happening in Fall?
And yes, the unit shuffle is still on.

Excellent.
thanks for getting back to me.
Message from Turkey to Russia
I don't have a preference on you cutting Bud. If he gets Ser, I'll
insist on Gre. Otherwise, I'll get Ser. Six of one, half a dozen of the
other.

Message from France to Turkey
Jason:
What is the plan on the table between you and Eric? As I said, I don't want
to see Austria disappear and be followed shortly be you; by that point,
Russia will be a very dangerous force. I know he's convenient to your
plans right now, as he is convenient to mine, but it is very important to
both of us to keep his growth limited.
Up North, he's working to keep Germany in check, and may begin aggressive
action against Tony soon, but I'm pretty sure he wants to finish off
Austria first. When that's done, I'm not sure if he'll come after Germany
or turn his sights on you. Do you have any indication of what his plans
are for the next two years or so? Have you spoken with Andy about Russian
growth at all?
Erik
Message from Russia to Turkey
So you're still pretty confident that he'll give up Gre if he gets Ser,
huh? Seems unlikely to me, but I can see that he might.
