Game Notes:
1) Note that I tried to allow an army to move into the water and a fleet to move without specifying the coast where there were two possibilities. More comments in the press below.
2) I hope it isn't because he couldn't read the map (although he said his dog was ripping the map off the wall....) but Scott Morris has decided to resign now, rather than let his position fall apart. Veteran Colonia player Karl Schuetz is appointed in his place. I'd really like to run the Fall turn on time. If a delay is demanded, it is going to have to be a six week delay because I need to keep the game seasons in the szine balanced. Still, if Karl insists, we shall have a delay (i.e. to September 11th).
3) Use the first E-Mail address for Heath Gardner as the other two have been giving him problems lately.
Press:
(OSLO): Scandinavian anti-submarine forces were placed on emergency alert, after hearing rumors that a Dutch underwater demolition team had sailed from Antwerp and was conducting maneuvers in the area.
(OTTO to WHOM IT MAY CONCERN): If I wrote you and you did not reply; you will not hear from me again, until you do reply.
(ANTWERP to VIENNA): Dutch diplomats reassured the Austrian embassy today that their two great nations are getting along swimmingly.
(GM QUESTIONS):
1) Do I allow Black Press? A: Yes, absolutely. I think it makes the game more fun. If you want to negotiate, write letters, but write press for fun.
2) Shouldn't the move to Helgoland fail because Helgoland is a sea space? A: Yes, mea culpa, mea culpa.
3) Did the English move specify a coast in moving to Siam? If that is how the player wrote it, it should fail. A: And it does, it does.
4) Shouldn't Fleet Hague have gone to Hanover(WC) as there is no Hamburg? A: Right you are. The three or four of you who hit on each of these are going to help me a lot, I think. I have decided that I am going to print one page maps with spring and fall movement seasons. It seems that last check is the only way I am going to minimize errors on a map that I don't know very well.
