to all: Hard feelings? Surely not. Am I angry?
No. Am I sad? No. But well... am I enjoying
myself? Nope... is there any fun left in this
game? No.
I will continue my move in an attempt to get rid
of Turkey. Surely a united board against me can
prevent that. But what for? Spite? What did I
ever do to any country left on the table?
And just so you know, Germany, I and England sit
in 19 centers. With yours it is 21, and Belgium,
Brest and Paris, it is 24. Sure, Turkey will get
some centers off me if England decides to attack
relentlessly. But six of them? Do you really
think so? 24 - 6 = 18 anyway!
England to...
Austria;
Sorry, I didn't mean to slander, and I DO apreciate the 'gifts'...
but do you REALLY wanna turn back the clock?
Please don't take the word 'lies' to heart.
Indeed, if we look into our own hearts, and don't lie to ourselves, then we
are ALL liars to some degree. After all, we are Diplomacy players. :)
Your right though, what was I thinking? I guess I just couldn't believe
you would be that magnaminous. Course, even if you could pull it off, I
would be left smack dabb of the middle of the remaining three players...um, I think I'll
pass until I can see what transpires between alliances...
France to England:
The move to MAo is obviously defensive. My build will be also. Can we
dispose of the German? The inferrence from holding me from Munich is
you don't want me to grow. You have an ally. You get builds this year.
Fleets tell me you're coming my way, armies convoyed to push the Turk
and Austrian back tell me something else.
France to Germany:
I'm trying...
France to all:
Why all this whining? This is a game of conquest, not of peaceful
coexistence. I'll fight until I die. If you think I'm throwing to
England, you're wrong. I'll never give a SC peacefully to anyone.
Take, yes but give isn't part of my nature.
France to color commentator:
Tired??
Germany to:
England:
2 alliances? Bear in mind that
somtimes the smaller ally could be the better one. I have
armies (well, one anyway) up where you need it. I sat tight
this turn, (and thanks for the support), but I am ready to
support you aganist France. If you have made any moves
in that direction MUN will support KIE to RUH. However,
this will be ineffective since France can support from BUR.
I suggest you take BEL and order KIE to HOL. I'll follow
with BER to KIE and you move BAL to BER to keep the
count even.
Austria:
It would appear our attentions are each focused elsewhere.
Good luck, and please don't cave in and give up.
Turkey:
Still aptly named.
england & france:
up to you two how this ends. i think you know what i mean. i did my part. i have no control over what happens, now. but if england continues to pick up empty centers, then there's only one way.
