24 Apr 19 UTC | Autumn, 1903: GameMaster: Someone has taken over Germany replacing "Etherian". Reconsider your alliances. |
13 May 19 UTC | Spring, 1908: GameMaster: Austria voted for a Draw. If everyone votes Draw the game will end and the points are split equally among all the surviving players, regardless of how many supply centers each player has. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Seriously Turkey? You could have taken 3-5 centers off Russia and stopped the solo for many turns. Why didn't you do it? |
12 Jun 19 UTC | My thoughts exactly! I enjoyed the fight against Russia, and they played well, but I thought it would be a lot closer because I didn't expect Turkey to just not try. But it's an interesting map. I liked how you ended up on 10 despite not having a single unit in Europe for half the game! |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Russia was my ally throughout. Did I consider it, sure. But I only made progress with Russian help, and by the time I could have caused minor losses to Russia while able to make my own progress, I regarded Russian victory as inevitable. So, I stayed loyal. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Yeah, I was quite proud of being able to dominate the economic map. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Minor loses? You could have taken five SC's from him!!! There was a point where you could have taken more! Trieste as well would have fallen! Look back to 1913 or something, you could have gained significant amounts and dominated the south. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Ok, I did go back and look. I could have taken one, Rumania or Serbia in 2012-13 timeframe, but my other unit was a fleet and could not go inland. Russia had nearby units, so any moves on my part would have brought resistance, so I only ever had one guaranteed takeaway. The rest would have been subjective. I also had later opportunities, but again, for just one. Maybe I looked at the wrong seasons, but I went back to 1911. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Turkey, you could have killed Russia on the economic map, with three centers immediately and the fourth within a year. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Of course an attack on him would bring resistance. The point was to stop him soloing and taking ALL the points!!! |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Tbh, there weren't that many points in this game, just really not happy about the unnecessary solo. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Ok, one extra SC on the economic map. But that was it. |
12 Jun 19 UTC | Three - you had German support into Vodka and Oil. |
13 Jun 19 UTC | ^ |
13 Jun 19 UTC | I would have been okay with Turkey taking some of my SCs. He was a pretty great ally and I woulda tried to win and split with him if it wasnt for the economic map. No way we were taking any of that. Gg all. Thanks for being a great ally Turkey, wish i could return the favor |
