A Belgium Supports F North Sea - Holland (*Void*)

lol
Reminds me of a line from an Edi Birsan video

Erc should've been more explicit in his PMs.

All this time and I just now notice that North Atlantic connects to Yorkshire?

No big deal, though.  Gustaf's fleet can enjoy their brief occupation of the North Country.  Not much good it'll do him.  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.  Does it really matter?

hah, I never even realized that NaO connected to Liverpool

I had the same reaction upthread a bit.  I was willing to let Gustaf into NAO because I didn't think he'd get into one of my home centers before the year ended and I could build a new unit in LVP or EDI to defend them.

It's hardly a catastrophe.

why England doesn't move to Norway or one of those seas next to Sev is interesting.  Seems like you'd either hold Sev hostage or just move into Denmark.

England will certainly own Spain by next turn, maybe she just doesn't want to make any unnecessary enemies. 

Well, if I'd known Erc would be MIA, I'd have considered it.  Tongue

Seriously, though, I'm already at war with France.  Why add Russia and Germany on top of that?

According to my roommate, "Fair enough" is my catchphrase.  I don't really see it, myself.

Even though this is going to help me pretty drastically, it's not the way I'd have liked to have done this.  For one thing, if I'd have known he would NMR, there's no way I would've had North Sea-Edinburgh.  Now, I'll only be able to build in London.

Also, Russia didn't backstab me?  I wish I had known that in advance too.  Teddy, you should've said something!  Now my Northern front is all over the place!  Don't worry, Russia, that Norway fleet's leaving ASAP.

Congrats to Italy and Germany for getting back in the game!

Retreat to the Gulf of Lyons.  Offensive retreat!

If it isn't too late, fleets on Edinburgh and London.  If it is too late...it's not a huge deal, my forces in play are enough for now.

I'd really prefer to not submit orders right now...it could happen if necessary.

Jas, curse your totally predictable inevitable betrayal!

Sorry I've been MIA, boys, I've been absolutely crazed.  Houseguests.

Orders will be in within two minutes.

Interesting action around the Straits of Gibraltar. England plays a gambit by dislodging the Italians in the Spring, when they might strike into England's home centers in the Fall. The gambit could have been mitigated by attacking from English Channel, but that leaves the Irish Sea fleet with no other purpose than to harry the Italians.

It seems to be Liverpool's fate to fall to the scum of the Mediterranean periodically.  They survived the Frogs, they'll survive the Eyetyes.  (Note, this post should not be quoted out of context and used to "prove" racism on my part.  It's purely in-game.)  Rest assured, Jas isn't getting off this easily.

By the way, the way we kept him out of Tunisia was hilarious.  That fleet did its duty, even if it was scuttled in the process.

Fleet on London.

Very curious where Lewis will disband.  Prussia's the obvious one, but what would the other be?

It really looks headed towards three-way tie.

For lack of a better option, disband North Sea.

     You just don't want to see the Sultan's mujahideen parading through the streets of St. Petersburg. Tongue

I think St. Petersburg will be harder to take than you might imagine.

     I should have assumed that would happen & moved my units into position. Oh well, enough is enough, eh? I hate unforced draws, but I would deign to accept a draw if the alternative is my elimination. Wink

I don't know what you're surprised about.  I should've ordered Holland-Kiel, though.

     I figured that was going to happen, but I didn't bother to do anything about that...insulting oneself is not against the TOS, right? Tongue

I'm seriously tempted to put that phrase in my sig.
