Unfortunately, the Sultan must remove two units this winter, so the Sultan's long-delayed vacation will soon be a reality.
Meanwhile, the Teutonic Kaiser has stabbed his ever-faithful ally, the Archduke Sikboy, in Vienna. This timely stab places the game in an interesting position: both France and Germany, allies throughout the entire game, each possess 17 supply centers. It takes 18 supply centers to win a solo game of Diplomacy.
Will they agree to a draw, or will one, or both(!), perform the necessary stab and go for broke?
We might not be done yet, folks. Things could just be heating up.
Ownership of supply centers:
France: Ankara, Belgium, Brest, Constantinople, Greece, Liverpool,
Marseilles, Naples, Norway, Paris, Portugal, Rome, Serbia,
Spain, Trieste, Tunis, Venice.
Germany: Berlin, Budapest, Bulgaria, Denmark, Edinburgh, Holland, Kiel,
London, Moscow, Munich, Rumania, Sevastopol, Smyrna, St
Petersburg, Sweden, Vienna, Warsaw.
France: 17 Supply centers, 15 Units: Builds 2 units.
Germany: 17 Supply centers, 15 Units: Builds 2 units.
Turkey: 0 Supply centers, 2 Units: Removes 2 units.
