Austria would like to state that it will permit no foreign units within its borders.

Why are you saying sorry to Jas? Silent Hunter's in trouble.

I apologise to whoever I draw for Italy. I've done it in the past two games, as well.

I know. What I'm saying is that Austria-Hungary is worse (from experience, at least). Tongue

     I'm reading through the first Diplomacy thread for additional insight. I just saw how you were quickly aggro'd out of existence by Russia, Italy, & Turkey. Wink

Austria-Hungary probably requires the most skilled diplomacy of any power.

Oh, charming! Wink

All of that, of course, ignores the Tri-Ven situation.


I'm keeping Italy honest.

So they can be destroyed instead of paying for disbands? Wink

It's Autumn 1902.

Well, that's eliminated the last of the neutrals and my own plans went rather well... Smiley

Yes, yes I did.  I had my hellish post-industrial wastelands Oop North mixed up.  So sue me.

It'd be like a Brit mixing up Cleveland and Buffalo.

No, no. A group of interrelated areas on the East Coast versus a grubby city on the West Coast? You basically just confused New England with Oakland.

But Liverpool has a better football team, by a considerable margin...

The title of the next Act of this play: Death of an Austro-Hungarian (or Two).

And it's quite a plot twist from the end of 1902. I actually thought that a strong Austro-Italian alliance might prove to be a winning combination. Of course the Spring of 1903 found my thoughts to be misplaced.

Yep, it turns out Austria was an untrustworthy so-and-so... Sad

In my defence, I'm still a novice at this. Wink

The actual lesson is check the state of play before stabbing someone...

that mapping software makes me want to vomit. The only thing it does that is of any use is show builds.

I use DipTool. That's pretty good.

Somewhere Austria's doing well.

Apparently, two in five Austrias go before spring 1904, so I'm doing about average.

     Austria's not bad if you can hang around for a while, though you need to gain & hold a solid alliance with one of Italy or Russia. On th eother hand, being attacked by both Italy & Russia immediately leads to a quick end for Austria. You did pretty well in that you tied down Italy & Russia enough that they couldn't lead a significant offensive against you, though tying them down completely proved impossible. It didn't help that Germany was forced to withdraw from Eastern Europe.

Thanks for that helpful advice. Smiley
