SDMB Modern Diplomacy Game *players only please*

12 1/2 hours until the deadline! :slight_smile:

I’m denied access to email at the moment - hopefully it will be back tomorrow so I can conclude negotiations, if not, I may have to beg for an extension…

Wait. We’re getting less than 24 hours to negotiate following builds? That’s not going to work. Half the players are 12 time zones apart, negotiations are slow going when that happens.

+24 hrs to the deadline. Now 26 hrs from this post. :slight_smile:

One more set of orders to go…

Who’s missing?

The most recent email I have from our French player is the 16th… has anyone heard from him?

Unless there’s a compelling reason not to, I’ll run the turn at 12 noon Pacific time.

All players have submitted orders. Let’s see if I how much of this I can do before going to work.

Thanks everyone! :slight_smile:

I need a retreat order for:

British fleet in Sweden
French fleet in Mid-Atlantic
Spanish fleet in Barcelona
Italian fleet in Naples

Let’s get those by 10 PM PST Tuesday, June 21 (1 AM EST, 8 AM SAST on the 22nd)

Then builds can be due 10 PM PST Wednesday, June 22 (1 AM EST, 8 AM SAST on the 23rd)

Spring 1998 can be due… hm - let’s avoid the weekend, shall we? 10 PM PST Monday, June 27 (1 AM EST, 8 AM SAST on the 28th)

Isn’t the order of the other unit implicitly assumed to be a hold in such a case? I’m guessing that Poland didn’t request a legality check…

EDIT: Nevermind, saw Italy tried to move said unit not hold it.

Map in Flickr

Retreats:

Britain: F Sweden to Norway

Italy: A Switzerland to Milan
Italy: F Naples to Rome

France: F Mid-Atlantic to South Atlantic

Spain: F Barcelona to Auvergne
Builds:

Egypt can build 1 unit

France must remove 1 unit

Germany can build 1 unit

Italy must remove 2 units

Poland can build 1 unit

Russia must remove 1 unit

Turkey can build 1 unit
I only got the last retreat order 2 hours ago, so let me know if you need more time for builds.

But I don’t want to remove any units. :frowning:

You could pretend they’re going to an alternate world, where that French fleet will be the only unit there and the greatest power in the universe.

You could also pretend Eric Flint-style that they were transported back to 1632…
