Orly is on a different computer, so we'll have to wait till ~9 EST to get the results.

Slight extension since things have been weird with Orly not being on and such. Either way get orders in ASAP. I know that Germany, Austria, and Turkey have and possibly a few others. Try to get them in ASAP.

If Orly doesn't come on soon I'll have everyone send orders to me and I'll input them into my diptool again.

wolf January 20th, 2010 7:30 PM

Anti decided for everyone to send their orders to him, while he will send his orders to Aero so he can't change them.

It is now Winter 1904! However, I talked with Aura last night, and given the alliance between Austria and I, he agreed that there was no point in continuing the game given that he was the last real threat to us and he couldn't stop us anyway. Austria and Germany control well over half of the remaining units on the board. The Fourth Reich Alliance of Austria and Germany wins!

We will get a new game started. Since we will be starting shortly, I thought I would give some closing thoughts in case anyone was wondering how we won.

Right after we drew countries, Austria and I decided to ally. We never actually helped each other in combat except in Warsaw for the whole game, but we worked together nicely! First, I tried to protect Austria and threatened Italy and maybe Russia (I don't quite remember) to keep BeachBoy around. Once BeachBoy survived the first year or two we decided to keep Russia and Turkey at war as Austria grew stronger--a gift that Italy gave him by leaving Naples wide open. That very season England made the same fatal error of leaving Edinburgh (and thus the rest of England) open to a German invasion. If one or both of those things hadn't happened, we would have had a much more difficult time controlling the game. For next time, don't leave yourself open to that or you will likely get burned! With the western powers at my mercy essentially, I was able to take centers and continue to get more builds. The collapse of the West was what gave Germany the game. Austria had a similar experience with Italy since he got all of the Italian home spaces and was in position to take Marseilles with German help which would have been forthcoming. The last chance to stop the alliance was Aura's in Spring 1903 when Greece was left wide open. Once Austria established its strong defensive line that gave me time to knock out Russia, that was it. I guess the lessons to learn would be to cover your ass from stabs and to take them when necessary, though fear of Austrian retribution was probably reasonable in Turkey's case. Ah well, I had fun with this and hope you guys did too!

And yes, this can be closed now.

BeachBoy January 23rd, 2010 4:36 PM

Thanks for playing guys, it was really fun. :D Check out the PC diplomacy 2.0 thread for our next series.
