Dc 449: Winter 1910 Adjudication - persuader (Aug 28, 2013, 3:20 pm) |
This was a satisfying game for me as it was my first in over 30 years. I played by mail (the old fashined kind) for a period of time and stopped when my son was about 2 and we were expecting another.
I came in as a replacement for Germany, in season 2 I think. I had an immediate choice in terms of alliance with France or England. Both contacted me with interesting suggestions about how we ought to proceed, and ultimately I allied with France. My reasoning had to do with my position on the board and belief that France offered Germany a better future. England did everything a player in his position could, and I enjoyed our negotiations.
I thought the Austrian player did a great job, but perhaps was too strong too soon. I joined the stop Austria-Hungary movement and as Alfred said, once Russia and Turkey got involved Austria was stopped and ultimately defeated. I enjoyed John's emails, he was a good player whose only mistake was scaring everyone into thinking he was going to run off and win the game.
As to my alliance with France, I would not have expected it to last as it did. In part Al's regular emails helped and when I thought I had an excellent chance to stab him, I remembered how everyone joined together to stop Austria-Hungard and imagined the same would happen to me since I was not strong enough to withstand a coordinated effort. Later on France had an opportunity to stab me and didn't - and althought I was never a fan of draws, be they 2 or 3 way, it seemed fitting that in this game France and I share the victory. Had I seen a clear path to 18 I might have voted against the draw, blamed it on Turkey and done my best to grab the neeed centers, but there was no path and I just didn't want to stab France for the heck of it.
I have to say that while Turkey didn't ever become a major force, his emails were always well worth reading and I was glad to have gotten to play with Isaac. I look forward to meeting up with players in this game in the future.
Finally, thanks to Alan who did a great job. Jake

end game statement - alfdog (Aug 28, 2013, 10:15 am) |
Dear all
I am at my desk so I may as well respond
Firstly many thanks for the thoughtful and organised manner in which Alan adjudicated. Cheers to you!
Now to the game.
In many respects this was the most satisfying game I have ever played, for three reasons.
1 I like making alliances and in this game the replacement Germany was an excellent ally. We spent a long time discussing, sometimes disagreeing and frequently
haggling to establish a great alliance that did last. It took endless emails to negotiate the end of England, division of his resources and suitable stalemate in the north, freeing up as many units as possible for other areas of conflict. I am grateful to
Jake for this. I think there was one year he could have stabbed me, he had a three centre lead but at that time ah was not yet dead and he was far from sure of a solo. I also had a chance about two years ago to inflict a stab, had it have paid off I probably
would have solo’d but it was not certain and had it have gone wrong i would have ruined an alliance for a petty four way draw so I planned to stick with it. Had I have got to 17 I probably would have dropped into edi, sorry Jake, but it never came to that
and I kept pushing for a two way draw anyway. A great alliance Jake well done!
2 It was also good as I did not have it easy. In the early years both England and Italy conducted uncoordinated and unfruitful attacks on me. By about 03
I feared the worst but they failed to make any real progress and Italy turned his back on ah who gobbled him up. Eng failed to make a decent enough offer to Germany and the rest is history. But having been attacked so fiercely and determinedly, even to the
attacker’s detriment, I am pleased to have come out with a two way.
3 In a previous game I had solo’d as AH. In fact I was in almost exactly the same position as ah was at their zenith, but no alliance of the willing was forthcoming
and so I solo’d. so this game became satisfying as at AH’s height I absolutely went email crazy persuading everyone and anyone to attack ah. My main target was to stop turkey and Russia fighting and to turn on AH, as it was their stalemate and Italy’s neglect
that had led to ah’s meteoric rise (plus of course his good play). It was pleasing to be able to organise in some small way a coalition against the dominant player thus saving my skin and allowing me into Italy and Tunis. I have a pet theory that when a game
is populated by good players, no one should solo as if a solo is spotted early enough, and people are willing to adjust strategy accordingly, it can usually be stopped. Solos usually occur when one player’s rise is not spotted or reacted too and fruitless
stalemates are prolonged. Had r/t kept fighting AH probably would have solo’d. So all those emails were worthwhile.
Best wishes to all players and many thanks
I hope to cross swords another day
Alfred

Hey All,
Who's going to get to 18 first? At one point I thought Turkey would play a kingmaker and be wooed into helping one side or the other - but it looks like its going to be a race to 18 through Turkey. Will Either France or Germany stab the other first?

Hey All,
My apologies for the late adjudication. I think we all know how hard it is to re-engage yourself into a game after a long delay, add a lot of work responsibilities on top of that and it makes for late adjudications.
We also have to say goodbye to Austria, who did a great job sticking it out until the last turn, its much appreciated.
1 retreat: Turkish F Rumania can retreat to Black Sea.
