Board Game Blind Date Diplomacy - GAME OVER (7-way draw)
- Thread starter StupidFlandrs48
- Start date
italian general, i do think taking munich is worth considering ftr but you make that decision if you want to take munich then go ahead and make the move in that direction
Russia is already allied with France and taking Munich, you can ally with me and I can help you into Munich against F+R?
works for me!
I dont care who has Mun as long as it isn't Germany so fine by me lol
This is sad. I believe it is the wrong decision. But ok
British General: If you disagree with Hydro move against Germany this turn. But I get it if you don't
People are really following the apes together strong plan 
Fall 1903 Moves
Finally, we have real progress on the board! Success for England and Austria, more frustrating red arrows for the rest.
The following units have been dislodged:
Russian F Swe (retreat to BAL, BOT, Fin, SKA or disband)
Turkish A Bul (forced disband)
If your units are on the list of dislodgments, I need retreat orders from you in the next 24 hours; I will finish the update once that has happened.

Given how well Austria is actually doing Duskfall98 not this year but next I would be wary of a stab
Fall 1903 Retreats
And here's the new state of the board:
SUPPLY CENTER CHANGES:
Austria has taken control of Bulgaria and Rumania, but only has one home supply center open (+1 build)
England has taken control of Sweden (+1 build)
Russia has lost control of Sevastopol and Sweden, but has already disbanded a unit (-1 disband)
Turkey has gained control of Sevastopol, lost control of Bulgaria and Rumania, and has already disbanded a unit, so they have no adjustments!
France, Germany and Italy have not gained or lost any supply centers, so they have no adjustments!
It is now Winter 1903. Generals should submit build orders to me by Tuesday, November 19th, at 9PM PST (GMT-7).

Alice Kazumi Duskfall98 could you two discuss a fair division of Turkey this year? would love to have cooperation between Italy/Austria/Germany/England
HydrogenHydreigon I think France is set now on attacking you as the fleets in NAO and MAO show, be sure to protect yourself before helping me with much

It would be really nice if we could get a fleet in the Channel
Ooh I think we got bul nice job general! 
Duskfall98 Duskfall98 Duskfall98 Since I got Bul I can help you into aeg with no counterplay I think!
Except…I still can’t do that.
I have 5 centers and am being hit from 2 sides. Annoying either Italy or England just leads to me opening a third front from which I would get taken apart. You’re not, and never were in, that scenario.
I think we've just added another foot to the space ladder here, folks.
Again, if Germany could not stab their allies, they would literally have a 0% winrate. The fact that this is not the case evinces the fact that DBD is just straight up lying to y'all.
I recognize that hydro has made his choice, but again, don't say that you weren't warned.
With both E-G against me I am likely not taking the W here. But what I CAN do is just throw everything at the two of you to ensure that neither of you will win, either.
Alice Kazumi Duskfall98 I am going to make it my mission to stall E-G as much as possible before I go. Both of you mess 'em up after you take out R-T, ok?

Also HydrogenHydreigon I want to pick your brain for a second--what was the rationale for the G choice over me?
Good news! Sunny’s making good progress towards being a lawyer - he really can take words out of context and use them to fit his view of the world.
Nowhere did I say Germany can never stab its allies. I agree! If Germany could never stab its allies, it would have a 0% win rate. But what Sunny constantly fails to mention is that my current board state does not let me stab!
Hell, in the first post-Revival Diplo game I was Germany and did indeed stab Russia, one of my allies, throughout the game! Want to know how I did that? It’s because I was not being pushed by France or England (yet), nor was I being really aggressed upon in the South. While I will say that the South isn’t much of a threat, the fact remains that I am far more unstable now.
Germany will commit to our allies because we die if we don’t.

I think we should all gang up on Austria, Alice’s general looks very keen on stabbing everyone
