"Turkey shrinks"

Austria, England, France and Russia continue to enlarge their empires, even though France loses Munich. Germany and Italy stay at four centers, while Turkey goes two centers down to three. I'm sure that's not the final center count... We'll see.

Press

Austria-Hungary

Italy: You go west and free the Basque, I'll go east and free the Syrians, sounds good. Unless you suddeny feel like dropping into East Med, which you'd be welcome to. Watch that Turkish fleet, it might find it's way to the Ionian.

Russia: So, Rumania and Warsaw are Russian as you asked. I'm going to give some suggestions during winter for how to proceed, and I certainly hope you are not in Galicia when you are reading this.

Turkey: Blah, blah, blah. Sure, we play to win. But the most important thing is to have fun, not the result. Thus if you'd refrain from negative press, I'd quite much like that. About your poison pen tactic to have me go at Rumania, not followed. As for your proposal, it isn't ridiculous because you're playing to win, but because you are proposing that I give you the win. If you want to win, try to get it yourself. I'm trying to get it myself, remember! For me, the success of allies is quite important, but if I wanted to go along with your proposal, I could just as well give you my centers.

England

Russia;
Did you say you'd support Nor to Den? NOR to Den? I think all of us at THIS table know how far that would go. I hope your not planning on playing me like that.

Germany;
What I said before...Denmark for me and we're cool.

Austria;
I'm impressed.

To the rest;
Lets just see where the Fall Gods take us THIS year shall we?

France

Taunting the Italian has become a habit...he's easily baited. Come on, bring on those fleets. I might lose Marseille to you, but nothing else. Not before Austria builds a fleet and sails the Adriatic. Feeling desperate yet? You'll need two builds to defend and attack.

Germany

Germany to Italy:
I sure hope others suspicions were correct and you supported Munich. France sure looks to be a good target. I'm in.

Germany to England:
This course of action will lead you nowhere. Help us take down France. Denmark is yours.

Germany to France:
You have not chosen wisely. You have cast the die and now you will. Worst case I have stayed at 4, best case I have gained one. This battle will take us down a long dark road. Be sure this is what you really want before continuing.

Italy

Well France if you have not vacated Spain, then we will kick you out!

Austria, I will not attack you as long as you do not attack me.

Germany next year we do more against Frace?
