*O'Club* Diplomacy, Fall 1903: England Conquered

The sun sets on the British Empire, as France and Germany share in the spoils of a defeated nation. The despondent King SOB is rumored to be seeking exile in an unnamed Scandinavian country.

With England defeated, the Kaiser's armies head east into Silesia and Prussia, while France is content to solidify it's lines of communications.

In Italy, King Raubvogel sends his armies into Bohemia and Tyrolia, as well as dispatching a fleet into the Tyrrhenian Sea. Are France and Italy headed for conflict, or merely gazing into each other's eyes, waiting for the other to blink?

The Tsar recaptures Rumania this turn, sacrificing Budapest in the meantime.

Likewise, the Archduke loses Greece to Turkey, while regaining Budapest from Russia.

In a significant development, Turkish forces capture the all-important country of Greece. In yet another display of musical provinces, the Sultan gives Rumania back to the Tsar in a methodical, strategic retreat.

Ownership of supply centers:

Austria:    Budapest, Serbia, Trieste.
France:     Belgium, Brest, Liverpool, Marseilles, Paris, Portugal,  Spain.
Germany:    Berlin, Denmark, Edinburgh, Holland, Kiel, London, Munich.
Italy:         Naples, Rome, Tunis, Venice.
Russia:     Moscow, Norway, Rumania, Sevastopol, St Petersburg, Sweden, Vienna, Warsaw.
Turkey:     Ankara, Bulgaria, Constantinople, Greece, Smyrna.

Austria:     3 Supply centers,  3 Units:  Builds   0 units.
England:     0 Supply centers,  2 Units:  Removes  2 units.
France:      7 Supply centers,  6 Units:  Builds   1 unit.
Germany:     7 Supply centers,  6 Units:  Builds   1 unit.
Italy:       4 Supply centers,  4 Units:  Builds   0 units.
Russia:      8 Supply centers,  9 Units:  Removes  1 unit.
Turkey:      5 Supply centers,  4 Units:  Builds   1 unit.

I could really get into something like this game after hearing you guys report  it.

Yep, enjoyed it SOB.  Sorry to see you go.  

Next time, make a better offer straight out of the gate.  Even if you have no intention of honoring it.  :D

Hope to see you in next game.
