Ivy, are you insane??? Even if France supports
you into Kie and Ber, and gives you Munich, that
plus all of Russia is only 15 Centers, and Sev
is hard for a Northern Power to take and hold.
Do you expect France to give you Austrian,
Turkish, or Balkan Centers that you can't
defend, just to avoid the Solo??? Is anyone in
this game, besides Prince Boar, playing to win?
Czar Nicholas II of Germany and Poland.

Message from England to Turkey
Ali,
You are rather helpless against the fleet shift Gre->Aeg->Eas->Syr. Italy
hasn't done this yet, even though it was available. Perhaps he just hasn't
seen it.
In the north you have resources. In your position, I would gamble, perhaps
with Mos->Ukr, because no moves are absolutely safe. Italy has a good
spring move with Bud->Rum->Ukr, and that's more sophisticated than the much
too obvious Rum->Sev. If you bounce him in the spring, then you can
probably survive the fall.
I am guessing that France will take two more units from Italy this year.
I really don't like my position. France is closer to more centers and is
getting no resistance.

Care to discuss this situation?

More press to you than Ivy wrote? I am surprised. If
you had been more communicative, you would have gotten
much much more from me. I am not sure if you are
relieved or disappointed. I suspect the former. :-)
Go ahead and broadcast your EOG if you want to. I just
thought it would be more fun to read them all together.
When the game ends, you statement would be hard to
recall (being so long ago), which would be disappointing.
I look forward to hearing what everyone has to say.
Write a End of Units statement if you want :-)

Message from Russia to all
"Warsaw Komsomolets"
January, 1907
"Growth At Last, But At What Price?"
Reports of riots in St. Petersburg mark the continuing decline of Russian
solidarity. Scores of citizens were injured and three lives were lost as
angry mobs stormed the English and Turkish consulate buildings. The
sound of shattering glass could be heard throughout the city and a few
buildings were seen smoldering in the early light of dawn.
When word of the fall of Germany came to this area, it was hoped the
citizens would once more unite and a wave of support would be felt much
as it did when Austria fell by the wayside. News of declining conditions
for
the troops bravely fighting this war, the stagnation of the economy, the
loss of key positions to supposed allies have clearly left their mark
on the citizens of this great country. Once firmly supporting the Czar
Nicholas and Tsarina Alexandra, the nation now questions why their leader
has chosen this inopportune time to tour the areas of Scandinavia and
Northern Germany when they, themselves, face destitution and ruin.
Government sources are trying to rally the people, promising that things
will
soon change as Turkey and England face defeat and Russian troops move
in to take advantage of this situation. Programs to aid the hardest hit
areas
are in planning and sources say many people may see relief in only a matter
of weeks. The Bolsheviks feel that this aid package will be too little, too
late,
if it arrives at all and have begun to call for revolution.
The citizens of Moscow are reported to be rioting, but not in protest or an
attempt to overthrow the Russian government. Attempts have been made to
foil key operations of the Turkish military and it is rumored that the
partizans
are, indeed, causing much havoc. Leaflets supporting Czar Nicholas and
urging citizens to unite and oppose the heathen Turks that threaten their
homes
are being posted faster than the Turkish Propaganda Corps can remove them.
What will happen in 1908 remains uncertain, but clearly it will be a year of
great change and upheaval.
Message from France to all
I apologize for my recent silence.
Life has been too busy.
Last night was my daughter's birthday
As most of you know, that must
come before Diplomacy.
For single guys like Fredd, think:
Dauther's B-day ~ Date with Girl > Dip
I spent all day today working on a project
for her school. 2nd grade should not take
up this much time! Need to finish tomorrow.
But something that Fredd can understand:
tonight I am going to a Party!
(first one in almost a year :-)
I will write tomorrow AM before
the frenzy begins anew. I know that I owe
most everyone a message. Since I cannot
write you all now, I will wait on everyone.
Regards,
France
Message from France to Turkey
Ali:
Will you support me to the Aegean. You can do so without
risking any of your centers. If successful, which it is
likely to be, that would put us in a position to prevent
Italy from taking any of your home centers. It may even
cause him to disband a fleet, if we are lucky.
What are your plans for Army Moscow? I am sure that
Russia wants you to move it to St. Petes. Has Ivy asked
you to do anything with it? Did he know (or request)
that you were moving or to Moscow last year?
I can take Venice for certain this year, perhaps Trieste
as well.
