PRESS Andy-All: Please do NOT forget to include retreats in next season's (S1908) orders! Dark Lord-All: Yes I call out from the grave to all those who hold integrity and faith high aloft in value, bring me vengence I cry. The foul breath of the heathen, drunk on the blood of innocents, stains the air, they may snigger around those camp fires on the stolen and raped land of my noble people. But their victory is hollow and short lived. The ghosts will haunt them forever for I realise now how foolish they are, in failing to see this is not simply a game. The reality is that they will never be safe the curse will follow them into what they laughingly call real life. I see you remain ignorant and scoff at such outlandish claims. But wait the night will draw close and as the nightmares come your blood will run cold as the realisation dawns. To those good men of Turkey, Russia, France and Italy whose very names light up the heavens, I raise my glass in toast wishing you well now and forever. To those beer swilling scoundrals in the North, bloated on their own pride may your shrivelled bodies rot for all eternity, bring out those air fresheners to hide the stench as we bury their bodies deep on non-sanctified land. To the proud men in black, foolish and yet quaintly trusting, learn and go on, remember the smell of dishonour and back stabbing. To the Great Master who rules and must be obeyed and yet has wisdom and generosity beyond his years I thank you for all your grace and favour over these many seasons. Forgive me for failing to give you the game you deserve as Master, as you see those of inferior skill and zero goodness drive forward to a valueless victory, a victory for evil and tastlessness. Finally, to the Austrian who laughed a lot was laughed at a lot and still produces cheap newsprint in a hole in Baghdad, thank you for that laughter, play on at whatever game you think you were trying to play, it was funny will always be funny and the tears continue to roll for your people who stand alone, leaderless and dying. I will continue to call out from the grave. Aus-All: Well, this is probably it for the misunderstood empire of Austria Hungary, the Daily Strudel hasnt published in years, Archduke Rod aka the Handsome Habsburg, had a suicide pact with Alma Mahler, but after he did the deed, she reportedly travelled to England and has become a confidant of The Successful and Modest Lord Wordsworth. Perhaps that's where the phrase Ladies first originated. To all who betrayed me, well done. Lon-All: London Calling: Za-pa-te-ro Pre-si-den-te! Za-pa-te-ro Pre-si-den-te! Andy-All: Say what you like but the Dark lord makes me smile! Andy-All: END Game Proposal 1/ Five way draw between E/G/I/R/T, NOTE! A failure to vote is considered a YES vote!!! In the event of a tie the result with the fewest players in the draw wins. If their is still a tie then a revote is called for next turn!
