PREV  Fall 910 Adjudication:  NEXT    

DC229: The Fall 910 season has been adjudicated. The end has arrived for both the Samanid and Umayyid Emirates. Both players played well and had nice starts to the game, and the press war between the West Franks and Umayyids was possibly the most memorable that I've been witness to. Thanks for playing guys, and I look forward to our paths crossing again.

That brings us down to 12 players. Starting in Africa with the most likely player to join Nathan and John, Mikael's Wagadu is down to 2 SCs, and could be down to 1 depending on the West Frankish retreat. The West Franks and Srivijayans made their first contact of the game, with Sri Vijaya knocking the French out of the Western Sea. With the war against Wagadu finished, it remains to be seen where (and if) the Axum armies will redeploy. With the Western Med cleared up now, the naval war in the Med between the West Franks and Byzantines will probably intensify now. Looking in the Eastern Med, the West Franks have foreshadowed the Crusades by landing an army in Jerusalem.

After the miscue in the winter, the year went relatively okay for Arabia, who lost 2 SCs (Jerusalem and Ujjain), but offset that with a gain in Tibet. With the 2 builds in hand and the fleet in Ujjain destroyed, Arabia will still have two builds to use to try to hold off the infidels. The situation on the Russian steppes is more resolved with the elimination of Turan, and now the combined Danish-West Frankish-East Frankish forces seem to maybe have the upper hand.

Retreat orders are needed from Tang Dynasty, West Frankish Kingdom, and Kingdom of Wagadu. The Retreat 910 deadline is Fri Jun 12th, although I probably won't adjudicate until Sat morning. The Winter 910 deadline is Mon Jun 15th, and then the Spring 911 deadline is Thu Jun 18th.

Before the adjudication, we have some press, with my favorite Li Bo poem. Also, be sure to check out some of the creative orders within the adjudication (from Arabia, Denmark, and Axum).

PRESS #1 (Anonymous)
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Wander the streets of a
great city. What do you see?
Myriads of lives like
bubbles in a rushing stream.
The bazaars are crowded with
wealth and noise.
Trade is the city’s purpose,
the pulse of its life blood.

Beyond the gates, the hills
groan under the enemy’s steps.
The hawk circles, indifferent
to the spectacle of Man.
Dust and sweat, striving and
sacrifice, these shape the world.
The City is a jewel, coveted
by many, held tight in one fist.

Li Bo

Diplomacy games may contain lying, stabbing, or deliberately deceiving communications that may not be suitable for and may pose a hazard to young children, gullible adults, and small farm animals.
