PEARL DANIO - Autumn 1905 GM Ally Bain
Even though they are down to two units, England sure as hell mucked up Germany. Unfortunately the same cannot be said about Italy. I suppose Italy might think it is funny that Austria has gained from them but am not able to build; maybe that is thanks to Russia.
Turkey have expanded but we will have to see how they get on with Sevastopol & France, without being able to build, will be interesting.

Builds/Disbands: A: None. E: Removes F(SKA). F: None. 2 Build centres short. G: None. I: Removes F(ADS). R: None. T: Builds F(Smy), A(Ank). PRESS Austrian Govt-Rom: Well, I did ask nicely before ... Con: You know, a few of you guys are getting close to breaking the "no-diploming-through-press" rule for a gunboat game. Not that most of the press is surprising news. Knock it off anyway. ALB: Sadly, some 'press' in this & another Gunboat game have fooled me. Ultimately it is my fault for not spotting them & to get round it, I can call this a 'no press' however I do like seeing funny aspects continuing. I will increase my attention for checking the 'press' but if it starts again, the game will be 'no press'. On a positive side, thanks for getting your orders, etc, quickly & carry on doing it. Spring 1906 deadline: 19:00 BST, 4th June 2002.
