Sorry for the unnecessary delay on my part. However, I do have something quite exciting for you! An elimination! Yes, you heard right! Only one to succeed in his move was Moscow, who thus eliminates London. The dreaded Juggernaut alliance seems to work in Pure as well!
A Rome S A Moscow-London
A Constantinople S A Paris-Vienna (cut)
A London-Constantinople (disbanded)
A Moscow-London
A Paris-Vienna (fails)
A Vienna S A London-Constantinople (cut)
A Berlin-Paris (fails)
Hope only one of you got in or the retreats will nullify everything.
Hey, Rome! Thanks for the effort. I'll help you back into Rome again next time. Sooner or later this nut will crack!
Constantinople and Paris - two of us should have two centres each (hopefully) after this season. What do you say that whoever the third is we help them out, eliminate the rest and then the three of us fight it out between us.
Looks like Constantinople isn't falling victim of the tall-puppy thing, seeing me and London as the only ones opposing. It is quite amazing!
If by some whacked out process I gained a unit this turn, my intention is to retake my home center. Whoever helps me do it will receive my help in return in taking the center I vacate to do so. If, as is probably true, I didn't gain a center, the exiled Viennese forces in Berlin announce their formal abandonment of any all allegiance to anything and everything. We will be mercinaries in the utmost extreme. We are open to any and all proposals with the only requirement being that the proposal include the capacity for our troops to shed some blood, rape some innocent citizens, and drink the beer of whichever unfortunate unworthy has incurred the wrath of our new employers.
