England the Strong Ravishes Russia!





I will attempt to bring you a map which you can follow each turn, but for now a snapshot of areas of influence during this brutal war in Europe. Spring 1906 Results are as follows....


Turkey
Army in Ankara convoys through the Black Sea to Sevastopol, while Sevastopol flies to the Ukraine. Fleet in Constantinople supports Bulgaria, while Fleet in Greece sails to the Ionian Sea. Army in Trieste supports German Army Bohemia to Vienna. Bulgaria supports Rumania.
Germany

Tyrolia supports Trieste, while Bohemia invades and wins Vienna. Fleet in Prussia fails in its bid for the Baltic Sea, while Denmark goes to Kiel. Fleet in Kiel to Holland for the tulips, I presume. Army in Warsaw to Galicia but fell back due to Austria and Army in Belgium flew to Ruhr.

Austria

Armies in Galicia supported Rumania who supported Serbia. The Serbs surprisingly supported Rumania while Budapest supported Serbia.... all too complicated for me. In short, all units held, and none were attacked.

Italy

Army in Tuscany supported the German army Tyrolia to Venice. The Fleet in Rome supported his army in Tuscany. Tunis defiantly stood his ground and repelled the French hordes attacking from North Africa.

France

Although the Fleet in North Afrika was rebuffed in its attempt at Tunis, her other Fleet went from the Western Med to the Tyrrhenian Sea. Army in Spain fled to Gascony, Marseilles nipped into Piedmont because Piedmont was jaunting off to Venice. The Army in the quiet country towne of Venice took a journey to Apulia.

England

Army in Norway went to Sweden. Fleet in the Gulf of Bothnia bounced off of Germany in the Baltic and must stay put. Fleets in the North Sea and the English Channel kept their anchors embedded in the sand. Army in Livonia supported St Petersburg in their successful plunder of Moscow, which ends the Russian Empire and heralds a new age under British rule.

Russia

The illustrious and popular Queen Deborious has gone into exile with Borat at his idyllic summer escape in Egypt. Although Russia has fallen, her people remain unbowed and proud. Please take a few moments of silence to ponder Russia and her noble Queen. She has done a great job and I feel, is simply a victim of circumstance. She can hold her head high knowing she did well against the odds. This will be the last entry for Russia.


Please be ready for Friday!







Franz Ferdinand
Chairman.

WHY DID TURKEY MOVE INTO UKRAINE? IT WAS NEVER MENTIONED BUT IT WAS ACTUALLY TURKEY WHICH CAUSED RUSSIA TO BE DISBANDED!!! FRANZ MADE ANOTHER MISTAKE IN NOT DECLARING THIS. MOTHER RUSSIA HAD NOWHERE TO RETREAT WHICH IS WHY SHE IS NOW DEAD. PERSONALLY I THINK RUSSIA WAS NOBLE AND BRAVE WHILE TURKEY IS REPULSIVE AND ENGLAND IS NOTHING BUT AN OPPORTUNISTIC REEKING ROTTING UNCOUTH PIG!!!!! TURKEY IS BAD BUT ENGLAND DESERVES A WORSE FATE THAN RUSSIA. ENGLAND YOU ARE NEXT!

YOU HAVE NO IDEA YOURSELF GOING ON CALLING ME A TERRORIST WHEN IT IS YOU WHO HAS CAUSED THE HARMFUL UNEEDED AND CALLOUS DESTRUCTION OF A COUNTRY THAT NEVER DID ANYONE HARM. YOU CAME IN THROUGH THE OUT DOOR WHEN NOBODY WAS LOOKING OR CONCENTRATING ON A SLIME BALL WHO WAS LOOKING FOR CHEAP THRILLS. SPINELESS? YOU MUST BE LOOKING IN THE MIRROR. MARK MY WORDS ENGLAND WILL BE THE NEXT TO FALL. AUSTRIA AND GERMANY ARE THE NEW POWERS. ENGLAND YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A SPINELESS INCONSIDERATE JERK.

Ferdinand did not accurately represent the actions of the fleet in Tunis. The Italians are perturbed.

Well Mister Italian Medallion, the fashion in which you chose to express your moves was not very diplomatic!

The best strategem a leader should learn is when to quit.

Russia bowed out gracefully and will be remembered for their tact, diplomacy and quiet yet honourable struggle.

Unlike the Italians who have turned rabid with thier lack of diplomacy in their potty mouthed abuse of other nations causing strikes and stoppage of play. You are not endearing yourself to anyone and have none to blame but yourself for being out guessed and out played.

Watch out France word is that Germany has acquired 30 pieces of silver in treasury.

With love

Oh and the BIG Mister EX appears in the nick of time to save the day.

England is a smooth operator? Germany can be bought? Italy is a slimy weasel? Austria has given up? Turkey is a Russia hater? France has left their back door open?

From Russia with love.

My goal is to make the world share in my misery and ostracization. I had lost this game before it began and I knew it. I'm not playing to win. I'm not playing to show dignity. I'm not playing to have fun. I'm not playing to re-enact a historical moment. I'm not playing to exercise the intellect and feel the thrill of working out a razor sharp strategy that culminates in a decisive fulfillment of a plan woven like the strands of an African basket that carries water despite the laws of physics making it impossible for the material involved to perform such a miracle.


No.


The reason I'm playing is to illustrate to everybody what a bunch of sorry pathetic hopeless losers you all are, just like me.
Sweet dreams you bunch of geeks.
