i have another question, didnt found an answer to it in the rules

lets say country1 attacks point A with a "strengh" of 3
point A is being hold by country 2 with a "strengh" of 1
and country 3 allso attacks point A but with a "strengh" of 2

if i understand it right then:

country1 moves in to point A
country2 is disslodged
country3 fails in it attacks and holds

Correct, Flyboy. Although country three's army would not technically hold; that's called a "bounce" when a move order fails. But the result on the map is the same.

rgr thanks

Grrr do we have to wait for 5 days now to get the first round?

Make sure your "wait until deadline before processing" box is unchecked if you want the turn to go faster. If everyone unchecks theirs, it will go to the next turn immediately. If one person wants to wait, we all have to.

And we were given 6 days on the first turn to have time to handle our initial diplomacy; it would be wise to make use of it, since the next few turns will probably feel pretty rushed.

IMO, the initial round of negotiations sets the tone of the game, and friendships and enemies made in the first two years can become permanent.

Communicate, communicate, communicate!

Yes, in fact the same holds true when trying to attack and capture a supply center of another country. Even if you capture the supply center in the Spring turn, you must hold it by having a unit in posession of it in the fall.

For example, let's say Germany attacks France and captures Paris in the Spring. It doesn't officially become a German supply center until after the fall turn, so the German unit will have to defend itself against a French counter attack in the fall.

In your case, if you just wanted to pass through your ally's country without capturing his supply center, that is possible. Just make sure you're not on his supply center after the fall turn. You won't have an ally anymore!

Sandman had a concrete plan right from the beginning. Your proposed plan was "kill germany." The lack of a good plan from you made me think you were insincere; while sandman's plan showed thought and dedication to wiping you out.

Jeezus... I've been gone about two days and there are eighty messages. You guys are going at a furious pace.
