> When did we start sharing a brain.
My friends and family have said for ages that I'm working with only half a
brain. It's good to know where the rest has been all this time. :)

I worry the French removals are an invitation for Russia to enter BUR. I'm
glad I built the armies. . .
What do you make of (a) that, (b) the builds generally, and (c) the A SEV?
I was surprised it wasn't a fleet. . .

Not sure, but I have a plan for how to get rid of him.
I have offered to support him to BUL(SC)
If he accepts, I will support him there, and move to CON, supporting
myself to BUL(SC) in the fall
If he doesnt, it gets trickier, , but I know we can work out a plan for
keeping all our dots.

So are you thinking I move to Aeg and Bla then? There's not many places for
me to move to get out of the way of that moveset without significant
retrograde motion.

Move RUM north so you have a retreat path from BUL, move CON - ANK for the
dot.
Message from Turkey to Italy
Actually, I'd prefer Smy. :-)
Do you have enough supports for Bul? I'm not sure if Russia will cover
it or not.

I understand that, but I dont have a support into Smy..:-)

Im pretty sure he wont be supporting it. Hence my offer.
Message from Russia to Italy
Andy,
Realistically, I believe that we are going to end in a 3way RIE draw, but I'd
like to keep the faint hope of a solo alive by keeping my units somewhere
within sight of the Med. My concern with the vacating of Con and Bul (going
north and east) is that it is going completely "turtle".
I was looking to get you builds, since the highest probability outcomes say
that I'll need your fleets around to defend the Med, but at the same time I'm
not trying to be 100% carebear in getting to the three way. That's why I was
looking to get you Bul(sc) without having you pass through Con. So frankly,
I'd rather not retreat from Con.

Well...something has to take Ankara....
And I figured RUM (not Bul) would be going north anyway.

Ok. Then please outline a plan to me that protects my existing dots.
If I kick him out of AEG, he retreats to the ION, where he touches 2 of my
dots as well. I could move the army in rome down to cover, but then I cant
build there.
But hell...I guess that is the plan, if you dont want to let me pass
through Con, we can standoff in SMY in the fall if he retreats to EAS

That's fine then, Bul will suffice. Hopefully I can hang in there
through the fall.

Eric,
Jason has accepted my offer of support to BUL.
Whose plan are we working with, yours or mine
Andy
Message from Italy to Russia
The primary reason I want to use my plan...is because it looks like we are
fighting.

What the heck did you do to Jason that he is playing like this?

I suspect something happened to his connectivity in the moves between

Not a clue....
Message from Russia to all
Ack!
Sincere apologies for the long delay (esp. without getting an extension
request in): moving blah blah busy. I'll save you the excuses. :)
I'll try to get press out soon, but I'll wait until I see the results to
send anything. (Which means it may still be a day or so.)
