Dip 53 African Diplomacy Autumn 2003 Results

Sorry about the delay with these results, but I was away on holiday as you know. The game should pick up speed again from now on. This turn sees our first fatality, Libya, which never really stood a chance after the early NMR. There was also a bit of a gang-rape going on in East Africa, with Zaire suffering badly at South Africa and Ivory Coast's hands. The battle for North Africa and the Med is hotting up too, so watch this space.

Only one retreat possible (Zaire A-Zam > Moz) so I've done that for you. Similarly, Libya has no choice to disband F-WMS and sad to say that is EOG. I want to thank Hacksaw for talking over such a hopeless position.
