Russia: Fleet Denmark can retreat to Helgoland Bight
Message from Russia to Germany
Tony,
I guess I should have taken your suggestion, huh? My moves don't look that
great at the moment.
Sigh.

I didnt look at the moves I sent you but I do indeed think that your
position would look a lot better than it does now. I did guess right that
Austria would chose for survival. As I said assuming everyone is hostile
usually works out best. The board always allows for diploming in hindsight.
I assume you are retreating to BAL.
This would allow bal - ber supported by sil, swe - den. At least you regain
one for the loss of three.
Ben has no reason not to order nth - nwy supported by nwg and ska - swe
supported by den.
Retreating to HEL may confuse him a little. This would allow hel - nth or
hel to den supported by sweden. Or hel - nth and swe s nwy. Eventually
though you will lose all of scandinavia.
So lets add up, you lose DEN, NWY and eventually Sweden.Thats 3. You could
lose all three now. By retreating to BAL you ensure you only lose two this
round.
You can cover MUN from SIL. But not if you chose to retreat to BAT to take
BER.
The rest of the moves all depend on what AIT will do, especially if they
work together. You may just have to go fro certain gains.
I am assuming that AT lied or at least didnt cooporate with you.
The only gain you can force is that of VIE.
So you would have to disband two.
I think given the situation everyone will lie to you.
RUM isnt definite if AT work together. It would mean that he cuts SEV and
SER and has BUD support RUM. On the other hand you could try for both
RUM/VIE
Then I would go
a tyr - vie supported by boh.
a gal - bud
a ser - bul
f arm - bla
a gal - rum supported by ukr
Retreats could be a problem if this works.
The only certainty is VIE.
a tyr - tri
a ser - bud
a gal - vie supported by boh
f arm - bla
a ukr - rum supported by sev
Personally I would probably order
a tyr - vie supported by boh
a gal - bud supported by ser
f arm - bla
a ukr - rum supported by sev
a sil - mun
You could gamble that Turkey knows RUM is lost and that he will order rum -
ser supported by bul and moves bla - sev. In that case I would order
arm - bla
ser - rum supported by sev, ukr, gal
tyr - vie supported by boh
All in all a tough call all around. You are probably looking at a loss of 3
to 4.
Good luck Eric, you will need it mate.

Austria's moves were agreed to with me. And actually, his move suggestions
were better than yours (Rum-Bla, Ser-Bul, Ukr-Rum) which would have taken Bla
AND disbanded his army in Gal/Rum. Your suggestions were still better than
mine, just not good as his. Pretty sad actually, to come in third in quality
of orders behind one guy on the brink of elimination and another guy who has
been eliminated. :)
