John Roberts is the chief justice of the supreme court (USA) who just ordered a very contentious ruling that really thread the needle of what is considered constitutional. Thereby angering both Republicans (by upholding the health care law in question) and Democrats (by calling it a tax). If you're a political wonk (like me  it's been real fun here for the past week.

Hi all,
Retreats are in early! Seems that good planning allows for quick decisions. Whether those decisions are right or wrong remains to be determined.Reminds me a bit of the US holiday we in the States are about to celebrate. The Americans planned well, had a good purpose to fight for. The Brits, on the other hand, didn't take the revolt seriously, thought they were putting down a small revolution, and didn't bring in the big guns until too late. We all know how well THAT strategy worked.

No offence, Jeff, but your replies to my emails just didn't contain any substance.

Just out of curiousity, is there any actual "diplomacy" going on any more, or have the draw participants sorted themselves out and are simply grinding through to the finish?
I'm not much interested in games where I have a fair percentage of centers but never receive any substantive press. I can't imagine anyone else is either?!?

Hi all,
Retreats are in early! Seems that good planning allows for quick decisions. Whether those decisions are right or wrong remains to be determined.Reminds me a bit of the US holiday we in the States are about to celebrate. The Americans planned well, had a good purpose to fight for. The Brits, on the other hand, didn't take the revolt seriously, thought they were putting down a small revolution, and didn't bring in the big guns until too late. We all know how well THAT strategy worked.
Retreats, Fall 08:-------------------------Gnomes: A Newa River - Elephant GraveyardOgres: A Cyriss - Moominvalley
Look at this -- for once, everyone still in the game has either a build or a disband; no one is sitting on the sidelines just watching.
Adjustment Deadline is Tuesday, July 3rd. Let's get them in before the holiday, otherwise there'll be *explosions*.

Adjustments (Builds And Disbands) due today!!!! Several stiill outstanding.
... and when the deadline passed, a great swelling of the oceans and rumbling of the land caused all to run for the safety of their home ports. Unfortunately, some were too far away and were swallowed up whole. During this time, all manufacturing was also put on hold. Dark Times, Dark Times.

Subject: DC406: Fall 08 Retreats!
Hi all,Retreats are in early! Seems that good planning allows for quick decisions. Whether those decisions are right or wrong remains to be determined.Reminds me a bit of the US holiday we in the States are about to celebrate. The Americans planned well, had a good purpose to fight for. The Brits, on the other hand, didn't take the revolt seriously, thought they were putting down a small revolution, and didn't bring in the big guns until too late. We all know how well THAT strategy worked.
Retreats, Fall 08:-------------------------Gnomes: A Newa River - Elephant GraveyardOgres: A Cyriss - Moominvalley
Look at this -- for once, everyone still in the game has either a build or a disband; no one is sitting on the sidelines just watching.
Adjustment Deadline is Tuesday, July 3rd. Let's get them in before the holiday, otherwise there'll be *explosions*.
Americans:---------------Archers: Supp 6 Unit 5 Build 1 Dwarves: Supp 13 Unit 12 Build 1 Faeries: Supp 11 Unit 10 Build 1 Knights: Supp 13 Unit 12 Build 1
Leprechauns: Supp 8 Unit 6 Build 2 Ogres: Supp 21 Unit 15 Build 6 Pirates: Supp 10 Unit 9 Build 1 Undead: Supp 4 Unit 2 Build 2

hmm well I dont like single line statements on history, but I must point out that the colonies had a lot of help from the French, (and spanish and dutch) and its very unlikely the revolution would have succeeded without them...from a purely military perspective..in those early years....not to take anything away from my good friends your celebration of what was the birth of the greatest nation the world has ever seen.

Just out of curiousity, is there any actual "diplomacy" going on any more, or have the draw participants sorted themselves out and are simply grinding through to the finish?
I'm not much interested in games where I have a fair percentage of centers but never receive any substantive press. I can't imagine anyone else is either?!?

Just out of curiousity, is there any actual "diplomacy" going on any more, or have the draw participants sorted themselves out and are simply grinding through to the finish?
I'm not much interested in games where I have a fair percentage of centers but never receive any substantive press. I can't imagine anyone else is either?!?

Hi all,
Retreats are in early! Seems that good planning allows for quick decisions. Whether those decisions are right or wrong remains to be determined.Reminds me a bit of the US holiday we in the States are about to celebrate. The Americans planned well, had a good purpose to fight for. The Brits, on the other hand, didn't take the revolt seriously, thought they were putting down a small revolution, and didn't bring in the big guns until too late. We all know how well THAT strategy worked.
Retreats, Fall 08:-------------------------Gnomes: A Newa River - Elephant GraveyardOgres: A Cyriss - Moominvalley
Look at this -- for once, everyone still in the game has either a build or a disband; no one is sitting on the sidelines just watching.
Adjustment Deadline is Tuesday, July 3rd. Let's get them in before the holiday, otherwise there'll be *explosions*.

John Roberts is the chief justice of the supreme court (USA) who just ordered a very contentious ruling that really thread the needle of what is considered constitutional. Thereby angering both Republicans (by upholding the health care law in question) and Democrats (by calling it a tax). If you're a political wonk (like me it's been real fun here for the past week.

Just out of curiousity, is there any actual "diplomacy" going on any more, or have the draw participants sorted themselves out and are simply grinding through to the finish?
I'm not much interested in games where I have a fair percentage of centers but never receive any substantive press. I can't imagine anyone else is either?!?

Subject: DC406: Fall 08 Retreats!
Hi all,
Retreats are in early! Seems that good planning allows for quick decisions. Whether those decisions are right or wrong remains to be determined.Reminds me a bit of the US holiday we in the States are about to celebrate. The Americans planned well, had a good purpose to fight for. The Brits, on the other hand, didn't take the revolt seriously, thought they were putting down a small revolution, and didn't bring in the big guns until too late. We all know how well THAT strategy worked.
Retreats, Fall 08:-------------------------Gnomes: A Newa River - Elephant GraveyardOgres: A Cyriss - Moominvalley
Look at this -- for once, everyone still in the game has either a build or a disband; no one is sitting on the sidelines just watching.
Adjustment Deadline is Tuesday, July 3rd. Let's get them in before the holiday, otherwise there'll be *explosions*.

Hello all,
I'm back from helping my mother return home after lung surgery -- she
is doing as well as can be expected, many thanks to all who expressed
their concern.
I'll be replying to your emails (or initiating email of my own) as
soon as I can.
Thank you all for your patience, and sorry for holding things up.

Wanted to let everyone know that I've had a traveling snafu and am shuttling airport to airport in the Midwest (thanks to, of all things, a weather problem in San Antonio) so if I haven't responded to your email or was frustratingly curt you'll cut me a little slack

Retreats are all in, but I didn't receive the last set until after I left for work. So retreat results will be posted later tonight.
Thanks,
