GM Comment:

ITALY HAS BEEN ELIMINATED. My personal thanks go to Tim for playing Italy and for playing to the end, even after losing all his home centres. Tim would be welcome in any future DiplomaticCorp game that I GM. I urge each remaining player to sends their thanks to Tim too.
When a player has been eliminated I will write to them asking for feedback on the game. This can be anything on which they'd like to comment on regarding the game. This feedback is completely optional. For my own purposes, I'd like to hear a player's views of how the running of the game can be improved. All constructive criticism is welcome. Of course, the player can also send the end-of-game statement to me and also to any and all of the players.
If an eliminated player wishes to receive future adjudications then I'm happy to keep them on the distribution list on request.
These results will also be posted to the DiplomaticCorp DC175 message board.
[u:0c555dfcd6]Preliminary orders are highly recommended. [/u:0c555dfcd6]
Remember to also submit any potential retreat orders with your usual orders for the next turn.
Please put the game number 'DC175', season, year and country in the subject line of any orders.
