Orders are done. Presently no Conflicts, but I'll be leaving it open untill 10:00 on the off chance Dia gets back.

Eh well, there was no chance of that. Sorry.

Do you want to make someone your second so if you forget, I can bug them to make a move for you?

Ayisdra:
A: Bud-Ser
Rika:
A Ven-Pie, A Rom-Ven, F Nap-Ion
Silf:
F Edinburgh - North Sea
F London - English Channel
A Liverpool - Wales
Casilu:
Move my fleet in St. Petersburg to Finland via Coastline
Move my fleet in Stevastopol to Rumania via Coastline
Move my army in Moscow to Ukraine
Move my army in Warsaw to Prussia

Diamondais is technically in Civil Disorder.

I shouldn't forget about it again, but I'll let you know!

So are we back into the diplomacy stage? Or still waiting for that to start up again?

Go for it.

Silferras, I think we should make a deal to split up Western Europe. I will obviously be taking Marseille before moving on to Spain and Portugal. It looks like you'll be taking Brest, but you have a few choices with your fleet in the North Sea. My suggestion is that you move into Denmark first. While you can stop Casilu advancing into Germany from the north from Norway, it'll probably be easier if you did it from Denmark and just blocked her off from there.

You also have to consider that she is likely using me as a distraction. With you focusing on me in the north, she'll be free in the south. Ayisdra didn't move, so without me, she'd be completely unopposed in Germany. You'll be too busy in France and Scandanavia to do anything about Germany.

Not necessarily. By next fall, Silferras can have a fleet in Belgium or Holland and then she can continue on to Germany if she wished. It is also very easy for Ayisdra to move into Germany, much more so than it is for me to get there.

Edit: I'd also like to note that if you don't stop Casilu from the north, there really is nothing from stopping her taking the entire Scandinavia, while her army in Warsaw continues on to take over Germany.

Just a quick point of order, there is plenty stopping Ayisdra from moving into Germany. We call it Russia and Turkey. If he moves, I come in from behind and attack. If Dai sends in orders, she could too.


I won't deny that Denmark is an excellent strategic point, but taking it does landlock my fleets. That means we'll both be using a lot of resources to capture or hold Denmark because nearly everything I'd have would be heading right for you.

8:00 and I only have orders from Rika and Silf. Gotta be more diligent people. I'll give you till nine, but tomorrow I close it at eight as planned.

Well if you want to go that far.....

If Casilu puts her resources into taking Denmark, then she would be open for attacks from the south from both Turkey and Austria.

Also, as things are, it is already very easy for Russia to attack Austria.

I admit, I would like to have a foothold in Germany, but with me sending a fleet to Greece and another army west to Spain, it would be very hard for me to keep Germany without leaving another place exposed. I am willing to leave Silferras Brest, Paris, Belgium and Holland for now. I am currently only interested in the southwest of the map.

Ayisdra, if you want Bulgaria, I'll provide naval support.

And that leaves Diamondais with nothing? I would not trust Casilu.

Ayisdra has no reason not to trust me. There is nothing I can do to him within any reasonable amount of time because of that move or otherwise. I simply have a reason to want to weaken Daimondais more than Ayisdra.

It's actually going to weaken your position in that part of Europe if you go for Bulgaria instead of taking Serbia as you are currently doing, actually. By going for Bulgaria, you leave Serbia AND Rumania to Casilu, effectively cutting your army in Bulgaria from the rest of your armies. If you decide to go back to Serbia in the next turn, even if you do claim Bulgaria, Casilu could easily get a fleet down to the Black Sea and take Bulgaria away from you. In the end, Casilu will control Serbia, Rumania AND Bulgaria.

I can't GET to Serbia at all.

A Rum-Ser?

I'm onto you, Casilu. You and your big bad communist ways.

That is a fleet. If the fleet is supporting Ayisdra this turn as promised, then I can't move it. Otherwise, my fleet can't float across land. It is not the Enterprise.

The enterprise was actually a historical ship.
