Russia, you have taken the south, but I will crush you in the north! Prepare for my final assault!

Then fight, Emperor Dudesoft! For I have respect for a man that fights to the very end, even if this man is my sworn enemy. Face the Russian Empire in one final battle, a battle that will finally free your people from the madman that has been leading them astray. And hopefully, you'll die on the battlefield, lest you be hanged in the red square, which would be infinitely more humiliating.

You have been an admirable foe so far, don't disapoint me now, Emperor of Austra-Hungary!
A quick heads up I will be away from my computer and mostly offline Sunday to Wednesday, so there won't be any turn progress during that time. However it'd be nice if you could get your orders in for the fall turn (and maybe even so far as the winter turn builds) before that so the game needn't stall unnecessarily.
Orders are finally in after I was away for a bit.
Austria:
Fleet alb Hold
Army boh -> mun (bounced with ruh -> mun supported by kie and returns to boh)
Army vie -> tyr
Britain:
Army lon Supports wal
Fleet nth Hold (but is dislodged by hel -> nth supported by hol)
Fleet wal Hold
France:
Army bel -> pic
Fleet bre -> mao
Fleet eng Hold
Fleet mar -> spa (south coast)
Army spa -> por
Germany
Army den Hold
Fleet hel -> nth
Fleet hol Supports hel -> nth
Army kie Supports ruh -> mun
Army ruh -> mun
Italy:
Fleet ion -> gre (bounced with gre and returns to ion)
Army ser Supports tri
Fleet tri Hold
Army ven Supports tri
Russia:
Fleet bar -> nwg
Army bud Supports rum -> gal
Army rum -> gal
Fleet sev -> rum
Army sil Supports kie -> mun (but kie doesn't move to mun so the support does nothing)
Fleet swe -> nwy
Turkey:
Fleet ank -> con
Army bul Supports gre
Fleet gre Supports bul (but is interrupted by ion -> gre)
Army smy Hold



It is now a combined Winter and Retreat turn (since the retreat can't really change who owns the supply points.)




Remember: you can only build in your starting provinces.

The supply is as follows:
Austria has -2 supply centers (1) and have to disband two of their units.
Britain has no change (3)
France has +1 supply center (6)
Germany has no change (5)
Italy has +1 supply center (5)
Russia has +2 supply centers (8)
Turkey has +1 supply center (5)
Britain
nth retreats to edi



It is now properly winter 1902. Build and disband.

So. Kloe has made her intentions known. I can't say it's entirely unexpected. Her generally cold and unfriendly behavior was a clear tell.

I lost my arms in a tragic chibi accident

My intentions? My intentions were to stop you getting anywhere near me, so that you don't take over my entire country, seriously Ottoman Piano Salesman, watch your step.

I haven't moved since landing in Greece, Your Highness. You've been nothing but aggressive and disagreeable. You're also not paying attention.

This has been a rather boring game, tbh. No one is talking really. The closed doors pm chatting makes this a way different game than the one I played in real life. Even if two people talked in private, everyone knew. This is a little frustrating, but I also played like a flailing idiot too, not ashamed of it.
Speaking as a game player/runner, this would be more fun with some form of information on private talking or at least more open discussion. However, the format does not promote it. It's more of a cold game of risk?
Eh.

Austria will be lost, but never forgotten! Viva la Austria!!! Etc...

Edit: I don't​ mean to sound like a butt hurt loser, I'm not. Knew this was coming. Was just hoping for a sort of Mafia experience.

Yeah, I do agree that we could've talked more on thread, I also expected some more communication through the actual forum.
I guess Diplomacy isn't much of a spectator sport. I have no idea what is going on behind the scenes. But it generally is built so that conversations and plans are incredibly private. That's just the nature of it.

And on the positive side it doesn't spam up Latest Posts!

Well, it was a good experiment. I'll play smarter next time. ;)
Build and disband orders are in:
Austria disbands:
Army in boh
Fleet in alb
France builds:
Army in par
Italy builds:
Army in rom
Russia builds:
Army in sev
Fleet in stp (north coast)
Turkey builds:
Fleet in ank



It is now Spring 1903.
I've had a severe lack of orders received for this turn so far (I've only received orders from three players). I hope that means there is furious negotiating going on behind the scenes and not that you have forgotten about the game.

But still I wouldn't mind if I got some orders soon. I'm thinking maybe a Monday deadline? Some time on Monday evening (gmt+3) I would execute the orders I have. (and any orders not received by then are Hold orders)

Understood, I am sorry for taking so long on giving you any orders, you'll receive my soon.

Got any Dexreth amulets?

At least I feel that there is indeed furious negotiation going on behind the scenes, but that's kind of subjective and also not something anyone else would be able to see anyway. But thanks for being patient, Shinan!
