Looks like a new iron curtain is establishing itself nicely, we might have an almost exactly historical Warsaw Pact/NATO lines once this thing's done...

You forgot to put the German forces on the map.

Don is also the wrong color. It should be Turkish gray, as should RUM's SC.

KRA's SC should be red, as should SWE's.

MIL's SC should be purple.

I think that's all my nitpicks.

[SnowFire]

Hey! Also, I ordered my army in Tuscany to support Italian A Venice in my latest revision. Those are my old orders. The Italian army stands.

[Bosh]

Those are the last set of orders I recieved for France, sorry.

[GePap]

Silly question, but since when can armies support the support of themselves? ie, A Ank support A Izm, and army Izm supports army Ank?

[chequita guevara]

I asked that in the last turn.

[GePap]

NO, you asked if a unit can support a unit supporting a third unit, aka:

A Uggh->Snap
A Blah supports A Uggh-> Snap
A Drat supports A Blah supports A Uggh->Snap

NOw, maybe I understand why that works, but

A Drat supports A Blah
A Blah supports A Drat

????

What exactly is going on? If I attack A drat, and A Blah seperately, what the hell is the outcome? I cut btoh supports, yet btoh seemed to be holding....

So again, ????

No, I asked if two units could support each other. I assume that an attack on one cuts the support of the other, so that three units attacking two countries like this would result in the defender losing a country.

edit: No, you're right, I did ask that. Yeesh, that's not what I meant! I gotta pay closer attention.

[Bosh]

A Uggh->Snap
A Blah supports A Uggh-> Snap
A Drat supports A Blah supports A Uggh->Snap

Nope, Drat can only support A Uggh->Snap if it is adjacent to Snap.

[Bosh]

Retreats were held up by an email problem, they're in now.

Italy retreats to Apu, Turkey to Cro and Bul

Fall orders due Sunday 10:30 EST

[GePap]

I have a fleet in Morroco, not an army

[chequita guevara]

You didn't fix many of the mistakes on the map that I mentioned.

If A Par S A Lyo and A Lyo S A Par, it's perfectly legal

it just means that the two units are supporting each others hold. Is that so hard to comprehend?

Oh, also, just thought I should mention that the leaders of France, Spain, and the Federal Republic Formerly Known As Germany (FRFKAG) will be meeting in Camp Newark, Delaware, to discuss a new world order. It's about time for our pathetic armies to rise up and overthrow our near invincible enemies. We'll post pictures of the event if possible

(In other words, Shi Snowfire and I are having a polymeet tomorrow 3/12. Technically this breaks Postal Diplomacy rules, but I don't think anyone will mind )

[GePap]

Well, Egypt hopes FRFKAG will remeber its friends in the east when speaking to them two.....

How can you hold AND support?
