| DC 373: Retreats - AceRimmer (Sep 19, 2011, 10:08 am) |
I don't have RP with me (so no maps), but:
French Army Brest retreats to Gascony
Russian Army Moscow retreats to St. Pete's
So... I need two Austrian builds and one German disband. Due tomorrow,[Reply] |

It seems that Mark is still tangled up with other issues, because he has not yet sent a retreat. That's fine.

Missing one set of orders. The adjudication will probably have to wait until first-thing Thursday, but I expect to have orders in my box from everybody by Wednesday!
Reminder: vote on AEFG, AFG, EFG[Reply] |
| DC 373: Vote Nagging - AceRimmer (Sep 12, 2011, 8:37 pm) |
Just a reminder:
Orders due tomorrow (Tuesday)
Lots of votes alongside it... AEFG, AFG, EFG, DIAS. With that many draw opportunities, surely that game must end?[Reply] |
| DC 373: Additional Draw EGP - AceRimmer (Sep 06, 2011, 3:26 pm) |
Because we're so close to the last adjudication, I'll allow another Endgame Proposal:
AEFG
AFG
EFG and...
DIAS (everybody draws!)
Vote by next Tuesday.[Reply] |

Apulia is a popular place. But since you cannot share, neither one of you gets it. Instead, the GM will keep it for himself. Yum, yum, yum, yum. Delicioso!

I will reserve judgement on our new alliance until I see it in action and Ven is returned to me forthwith....
