Hooray! We see the first successful move in this game! However, it's a bit sad as it at the same time means the first player has been eliminated from the game - no other moves succeeded thus no centers were empty except the attacker's so there's no room to retreat. So, goodbye, Berlin!
Rome's build is obvious, but let's have a winter phase still. So, I want a message from each of you, even if you don't want to send any press, tell me about it so I know when I can process the next phase. Even though Berlin is out of game, he's still free to submit white or grey press (if you prefer to remain silent, Berlin, tell me, so I don't wait for you anymore).

Berlin to Paris: Well, well my fine French friend we will see how things work out. Hopefully to the benefit of both of us. If successful I would appreciate support for a move to Constantinople this turn. Guess I have to upset someone.
Well it seems we have movers and we have shakers. Moscow will continue to be a mover. Support the bear and the bear will support you to join him in the movers club.
OK Berlin, you're on! Next year, we'll get you into someplace nice. And later, I'd like to work with Turkey. -Josephine Napoleon III
Ok, Vienna, hope you gave me the support. I'll give you support to London in next spring, be sure to use it.
Rome: How about you into Germany and then me into your choice -
say Paris, just to pick one out of a hat.
Berlin: Hey, nothing personal. This ridiculous game calls for
ridicoulous proposals.
World: Vienna loves you all.
Hmmm, isn't Moscow the presumptous little thing. Stomping around like that can only draw attention. What say everyone - down with the Ruskie?
