I plan on fixing Milan on the board and having that software JJ linked earlier handy. Have lots of snacks and booze. Diplomacy takes a couple of hours, so you'll have to keep interest up. Hopefully by the time the knives come out your buddies will be tipsy enough to take the betrayals in stride.

There's a bug in the variant file I'm using where Prussia isn't considered adjacent to Warsaw and Silesia. Until I figure out how to fix it, I'll just have to manually resolve orders around that area. That means the map for the orders around that area will not necessarily be correct, refer to the order list. I'll bold orders that differ from the map.  Results for Fall, 1903 (Movement) Austria F ion -> nap A tri -> bud England F bar Supports A nwy -> stp A edi -> nwy Convoy path taken: edi→nwg→nwy. A nwy -> stp F nwg Convoys A edi -> nwy A stp -> lvn France A bur Supports A sav F lyo -> tys (Bounced with tys) A mar -> spa A naf Supports F wes -> tun A sav Holds F wes -> tun Germany F bal Supports A stp -> lvn F bot Supports A stp -> lvn A kie -> berG A mun -> boh A pru -> war (Bounced with war) A sil Supports A pru -> war Italy A mil Supports F rom F rom Holds F tys Supports F ion -> tun (Failed, no such move) A vie Supports A tri H (Failed, no such move) (Dislodged) Russia The Fleet in Livonia cannot retreat; unit destroyed. A bud -> vie A gal Supports A bud -> vieRussia: F lvn Holds (Dislodged) A mos Supports A war F rum -> bla A war Holds Turkey F aeg -> ion A alb -> tri F bul/sc Holds A gre -> alb A ser Supports A alb -> tri The dislodged army in Vienna has one valid retreat, so:  Turkey: 2 builds France: 1 build Italy: 2 disbands Get your builds/disbands in ASAP!

No. The game ends if one player controls 18 supply centres, or if all living players agree to draw. All players share the draw equally.

Dr. Oszkár Bárány As the autumn leaves change to red, they match the blood spilled earlier this year in Bohemia. The Russians, as I suspected, continued their rampage northward, attempting to annex the whole of the Empire. They made it as far as Plzeň before meeting the German Liberation Army. From the news reports, it seemed like an awful affair - the two armies dug in trenches and fought for weeks, firing mortars and bullets hoping the other would bleed to death. Eventually the Russians withdrew to Ausztria, where they met the Italians, who continued to push those Eastern devils back to Slovakia and old Galícia. Many of the German wounded from the Battle were sent to hospitals here in Prága, but a few of the Jewish wounded are here in the Synagogue. Their moaning keeps us up at night, but I'm not sure if their silence would be better. The German Liberation Army has also deployed a detachment to the city, to "preserve order" as the front lines advance. All travel in and out has been outlawed. The Germans say they ill send us all food and supplies, soon, but what good is soon when we are already running low on bread and water? When my children go hungry every night? When we are so helpless? Even now I can see the glimmer of fires in the soldiers' camp at Vyšehrad, and sometimes I can even hear their laughter echoing down the hill. I hope they have a good winter, for this might be the last one any of us sees.

Somberbrero posted:Am I correct in saying that England, Germany, and France could claim a three-way victory right now? I mean, if they wanted to sit on their hands a couple turns, they've nearly established a stalemate line and could wait out any conflict in the east and draw with the survivor. The question becomes if every party involved is willing to wait that long.
