builds due Tuesday

Tip: colonize spaces that don’t have SCs in them, (you can colonize adjacent spaces as long as another player doesn't try to move into them OR you end up with a unit in that space at the end of the turn) units can't beam down on colonized spaces. Right now, for example, it’s impossible for anyone besides WarVoid to beam down anywhere
in Britian.
It might also be a good idea to build fleets...

Power Ranking:

#1 SnowFire: Combines excellent growth potential with security. Not bad.
#2 Victor: In a great position, however, he’s got a lot of fronts to worry about.
#3 Midshipman: Should be able to pick up Izm and Sev pretty easily, but after that he’ll
have to deal with some powerful nieghbors...
#4 Polaris: Good growth possibilities, what with Swi and Mil open and Germany in disarry,
but being in the middle leaves him a bit exposed.
#5 Defiant: In a good position, but the remants of Reismark will slow his growth down a bit.
#6 Bearcat: Able to build up a good position as a united Iberia, but Victor looms large to the
east...
#7 WarVoid: Excellent Defensive position, but he needs to take intelligent agressive
action immediately to be able to continue his expansion.
#8 Coug: Not in a bad position, but Defiant, Polaris, and Midshipman should be able to
make his long-term growth difficult.
#9 Chaz: Vulnerable postion, but if he gets a chance to at least establish himself in France
he’ll survice for a while...
#10 Imran: Poor Imran, nobody ever leaves him in peace.
#11 Talon: The little wandering army seeks refuge in the Caucases, how long will be it be
before Defiant and SnowFire hunt him down?
#12 Reismark: Ouch, two-front wars hurt.

Okay, you intend not to attack me again, but you decide against that promise because someone else is attacking me. That makes a hell of a lot of sense

Why didn't you just ******* beam down one or two of your units into Finland to try and help cut him off if you were really that concerned for me?

Reismark,
I not concerned about you whatsoever, but was just letting you know my intentions were not deception from the start. BTW, this is war, not a social gathering at the local coffee shop.

"Okay, you intend not to attack me again, but you decide against that promise because someone else is attacking me. That makes a hell of a lot of sense."

-Of course it does, this is Diplomacy. Not that I'm saying I'm out to get any of you, no currently I am not out to get anyone, but some people like Defiant feel a need to crush any and all opposition immediately.

[Defiant]

Thanks Victor for that raving review and I'm sure you made all my neighbors feel secure, now.

[Victor Galis]

Sure anything I could do to help

[Barbarossa]

Well now that Defiant's neighbors are worried, did anyone notice that in my Power Ranking it said

quote: but Victor looms large to the east...

Just checking

[SnowFire]

There's another mistake on the map- Murmansk should still be colonized by the Hodads. Conquest doesn't change Colonization allegiance. Though reismark's demise would.

"Once a colonization effort succeeds, the province becomes a colony of the colonizing empire. It loses all colonial attachments it may have had in the past. This is the only way (other than elimination of the colonizing power) to destroy a colony."

[Victor Galis]

Victor unlike Defiant most often finds it enough just to be looming large rather than stabbing

[Defiant]

Riesmark,
I apologize for lying, my intent was not to attack you again, but when I saw what the Tar Egledi(what the hell kind of name is this) was up to, I couldn't let him take all your SC's, I had to move against you. Again, sorry.
