PEACOCK GOBY - Spring 1901
GM Ally Bain
Looks like trouble in both the 'Western Corner' & 'Eastern Square'!

France sailed into the channel, which might upset the English. Germany seemed to be neutral but is they?

The other country to be neutral was Italy, which wasn't quite the case of Russia but Austria say it coming. The Turks with their northern neighbour stood off in the sea.

PRESS

ALB: From now on in, you must submit with your orders possible retreats/disbands & as we are in autumn, they must have possible builds/disbands. Any questions, please ask!

Vie-ALB: Nice to hear from you, and thanks for GMing this game. I'll do my best not to perpetrate any dreaded NMRs! :-)

ALB-Vie: I'm sure the other countries will do the same as you about horrible NMRs.

Lon: Thanks to this game I managed to a question right on a pub quiz machine. The question was 'which of these is a type of fish' and the answer was 'Goby' so whatever happens something good has come from it. :-)

ALB-Lon: I suspect six other countries are hoping you getting a question right are the only thing you will get from this game. ;-)

Par: The time has come for the Europe to free themselves from the royal masters. The common people should look to France for help in overthrowing the monarchs, that have ruled you for far too many centuries. In France it's the people who elect the leaders of the nation - not the nobility of the dark middle age. Cast away the mighty of birth, the time has come for democracy and freedom.

Par: John Doe-Russia: I thought you and me were brothers in arms. Long may you regret your evil ways.

Ber: Headline from Hapsburg Chronicle: "Invasion imminent, all children should be hidden from the Bear for fear of being eaten"

Ber: "I'm in Poland from Monday through to Friday this week so please send all mail to the following address John_Mainprize@vesuvius.com

Con: As the Sultan John I enters his decadently decorated harem room, his most trusted advisor Mist whispers in his ear news that makes him smile. As he lays down to a magnificent feast and even more magnificent women, he laughs out loud "So, our armies are ready to move, we will be victorious by Allah!" He looks at Myst and calls her to his bedding chamber " Come, I must get ready for war, please me one last time..."
