New recruits are continuing as planned.
Defenses are continuing to be developed.

Well there goes my ENTIRE offensive army!!! How the hell did you take Berlin?

Cyrion · January 21, 2003, 03:58

Sorry about the delay (the skiing was just too good...

) , I'll play tonight!

Cyrion · January 21, 2003, 16:22

Milan retaken!

Viterbo retaken, and a french battleship was sunk in the harbour!

Algiers taken!

To our allies:

Austria-Hungary: well done!

Russia: keep on fighting!

Ottoman Empire: to make joint operations easier (no more ZOC), I signed an alliance with you; I had to give you 50 gold, which I wouldn't mind you to give back...

And I left Bologna for you to take and heal a unit (even if it would have make things easier for me by taking it myself!)

And Great-Britain: there is a damaged french cruiser on 50,106 which you might like to sink...

And the save:

The ANZAC · January 21, 2003, 23:09

Nothing special more skirmishes

Prometheus · January 22, 2003, 01:51

With the surprising revival of the Italian Military, Operation “secure Italy” was canceled. However operation “Liberate the Orthodox” is now underway, Turkish troops landed in Black Sea port of Krasnodar this year and proceeded to liberate the cities of Rostov, Tsaritsyn, saratov, Tambov, Penza, Samara and Riazan in Eastern Russia.

To Italy: We are glad we signed an alliance; we have repaid your 50 and have given you two techs for your future development. Also a defensive army has taken its place in your country in case France attempts to invade again.

To Austria: We have opened a second front; hopefully this will give you some relief. Keep up the good work.

To Russia: Please hold on or if you wish your general A.I. to play, please gift me your units so that I may make use of them.

Cheers to a free Italy.

Darius871 · January 22, 2003, 14:51

Gee, once again, way to take EMPTY cities.

Civfan · January 22, 2003, 19:01

I like to be the first to propose a deal to my allies on how we should divide up our spoils from the Bordem alliance. I will be the first to declare the city of Berlin as a part of the Austrian empire.

We should make some form of an agreement as we all know that Germany and France will eventually be crushed by are united troops. Since I think Germany will be the first victium, we should arrange for which cities to take under our empires. The British, Ottomans, Italians and to the defeated Russia, lets propose the deal soon because we all know once these two countries are in ruins, we might begin fighting with ourselfs!

The ANZAC · January 22, 2003, 21:52

I don't think its time to rush the spoils yet

Prometheus · January 23, 2003, 00:07

Its not over yet, We still have a long struggle ahead of us.

And here I was thinking it was time to negotiate peace with the French at least.

Negociate peace with the french? Hell no!!

Italy is in ruins, all my infrastructure is gone, many cities have been razed and the others have seen most of their citizens die, and we should negociate peace with France??

I agree to accept unconditional surrender, but anything less seems a bit overly generous to the treacherous b@stards who attacked the peaceful nation of Italy without warning!

PS: no hard feelings SAS, this is fun!!

sas · January 23, 2003, 10:14

Yeah it IS fun! At least we're fighting boredom

Btw, is Russia still playing? He didnt play the last time he was up.

Prometheus · January 23, 2003, 11:59

I sent him a PM last night, we should wait and see if he is just going to let his turn go to the A.I. or not.

Prometheus · January 26, 2003, 14:33

I guess we should just continue, its been two days, go ahead and play your turn Sas

Prometheus · January 26, 2003, 14:36

Or I could just play his turn, allied forces and all… hate to let the A.I. take over a country.

yop73 · January 26, 2003, 16:23

Prometheus, just play my turn.
I have no password in this game, so just play on.

Prometheus · January 27, 2003, 00:06

French Turn is up next

BRITAIN CONQUERED!!!

(well, mostly)

- Intelligence has reported for months that NO cities on the British Isles had any organized ground fortifications except for their two naval bases of Aberdeen and Scapa Flow. After the fall of Berlin, our vengeful people got a hankerin' for some capital-capturin', so we pushed ahead the invasion already scheduled for this year.

Even after the Austrians heartlessly slaughtered 10 units of our invasion force as they slept in the barracks of Berlin, we were still able to succeed with some units recently rushed to completion and garrisons from as far away as Siberia.

The industrial heart of England now flies the colors of the Reich, as Manchester, Birmingham, Norwich, Bristol, Ipswich, and LONDON all fell in a matter of weeks!

Surplus infantry forces pushed onward to capture the Channel ports, but they only managed to capture Plymouth and nearly empty Southampton. We are also glad to report that we destroyed an unknown 7 units southwest of London, that were for some reason stacked.

The German fleet now dominates the North Sea, our original forces are well defended and will survive for continued advances, and new troops will be arriving soon. Britain's fate is now sealed.

- On the way to Britain from Kiel, our sailors were shocked to see a single British battleship surrounded by our dozens of vessels. After a good half hour of laughing at it, we were forced to sink it.

- German marines have also conquered Norway, brushing aside a petty one-unit British garrison.

- Due to our emphasis on the west, very few forces were available to finish off the JOKE of a Turkish offensive in Russia. Regardless, the infantry we could scrape up retook Riazan, Tambov, Voronezh, Penza, Samara. Saratov now lays in ashes.

Prometheus · January 27, 2003, 19:04

Well Sh*t!!!

sas · January 27, 2003, 19:09

France expresses admiration for the extremely efficient attack on Britain. And we're happy to announce that France is rapidly assembling a strikeforce for the continued operation towards Italy.

Civfan · January 28, 2003, 00:00

The news of the conquest of Britain caused the Austrian emperor to go insane. What the f*$% happend was the words expressed by the emperor Civfan.

Darius871 · January 28, 2003, 01:04

NOW shall we discuss dividing the spoils?

Seriously though, you can probably beat me even now if you play as well as you have.

Your home cities are almost impossible to take, with rough terrain, city walls, and (I'm guessing) machine guns, since you obviously have the Advanced Ballistics tech if you took Berlin. Given that, and the fact that France is thoroughly defeated, and the fact that Turkey is untouched, and the fact that Italy is still a viable power, and the fact that the British Mediterranean Fleet is still alive and well, and the fact that you just wiped out the 10+ offensive units that were healing in Berlin, I'd say I'll still lose even when Britain's out of the picture.

Civfan · January 28, 2003, 01:18

News from the military front:

PLAN AUTRB executed and a success.

The cities of
Rostock
Lubeck
Hannover
Bremen
Cologne
Rrfurt

Emperor Civfan urges Britain to continue the war. The lost of such key cities can be avenched.

In internal news:

Much of the last few months have been a success in the redevelopement of the infrustruction of the Austrian empire. Military factories and defenses have been put in place and a new tactical system for the field army is moving in stage developement 2. Its a far shame to what was expected of the country several years ago but I guess it takes a war to get a country and its leader into gear!

The dividing of spoils will be something the Austrian emperor will seem happy to do. But for such things to happen Germany has to surrender to the Austrian empire. An all right out surrender will benefit us all.

Germany can continue as a nation but limits will be put in place to create world peace. The surrendering of cities to Russia , the windraw of German armies from Britain will have to take place by next turn.

Alliance with France termininated!

A cooling time from war of 15 turns should be put in place.

This is just Austria's proposal to Germany.

Since Austria, Russia and Germany have been fighting since day two, I think its best for Austria to dictate terms of surrender of Germany and end this bordem war.
I will not divide Germany up but I will ask for some trade offs!

ps. Can you empty your private messages!
I tried messaging ya

thanks

Civfan..

Civfan · January 28, 2003, 01:48

interesting I tried messaging someone here , put my name in the user to send and it sent it to myself. Cool!

Darius871 · January 28, 2003, 01:50

Since Austria is the nation to be the LEAST damaged by this war (if anything they've benefited from it), the Emperor should be the last person to dictate peace. The greatest cities of every nation lie in ruins, while your citizens ski and drink champagne.

Austria had to do nothing but sit and watch to become the post powerful state on the planet, and now you think you have the right to define the New Europe? The only negotiations we will ever undergo would be with a resurrected League of Nations, with every nation having a vote and a majority vote passing any potential agreement.

Therefore we will make the following proposal to the League (duly noting that we are open to changes):

Germany would be willing to give Russia and Britain back to their remaining armies (with the exceptions of Vilna, Liepa, Riga, and Stavanger), give the Low Countries to Britain, and leave Dresden, Breslau, and Regensburg under Austrian control. Concessions of French territory in Spain might be in order but I cannot speak for them.

Prometheus · January 28, 2003, 01:56

This is unacceptable to the Turkish Republic; All former cities of the Russian Empire must be returned to her.

Prometheus · January 28, 2003, 02:04

The Turkish Proposal:

All British Cities Returned to Her.
All Russian Cities Returned to Her.
Spain and N.Africa to Italy.
Austria and Germany may be decided among themselves.
The French City of Bastia to the Turkish Republic.
