Smid's Diplomacy Game Thread #3

[Erc]

I'm still here; apologies to everyone.

I forgot about it for a couple days and, before you know it, the week is gone.

Check your inboxes shortly for PM's.

Since each player has relatively few (sane) options in S1901, many opening moves of Diplomacy have been named.  With absolutely no intended editorial comment, the openings of each player:

France: Atlantic Opening, Picardy Variant

Russia: Ukraine System, Austrian Attack Variant

Italy: Lepanto, Anti-Hedgehog Variant

Germany: Blitzkrieg Opening, Danish Variant

Austria: Houseboat Opening

Turkey: Boston Strangler

England: The Northern Opening (or The Yorkshire Opening)

My army in Munich retreats to Tyrolia.

I remembered about it right last night before going to bed, which as it seems would have been just a bit too late anyway.

My apologies to everyone...I know NMR'ing in Diplomacy is just about the worst thing you can do, but there's just been a lot of other sh**t going on in my life.

If someone wants to replace me, let me know, otherwise I'll keep on fighting till the bitter end.  Some of the most fun I've had in games has been in situations like these.

Germany builds an army.

I'm with intermittent internet access until the end of the year; I'll be submitting provisional orders, but would also prefer a slight delay.
