Once again, Du, there is a problem with my orders - I sent you TWO sets of revisions by PM, and I have the copies with time stamps, which I have sent to you now, by PM. Please check this out for me, this is getting ridiculous

**the_orange1** · March 23, 2002, 19:53

According to Poly's message tracking system, they were both received and read by you...

i'm working on getting a map up now. Give me an hour.

**orange** · March 23, 2002, 22:58

possible map error over the Java Sea. I'm getting two sets of "ok" orders from China that should bounce due to Britain gaining the Java Sea. Can someone confirm this?

**orange** · March 23, 2002, 23:33

why must British F Hyd retreat??

CHECK FOR ERRORS! (a lot of issues with the adjucation, I think...)

(sorry for all these posts

I remind the Englishman that he can still retreat his F Aden OTB, rather than to HDR where it will be mercilessly crushed, at the expense of one turn of attacking the French with those armies.

F Ade retreats OTB.

There, you heathen fez donning Turk!

**Victor Galis** · March 24, 2002, 16:05

Excellent... soon my Arabian armies will march on other enemies...

Mexico's EOG: How to begin? Where to begin? How about with "Owwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

Things went well for me as long as the Confederacy existed. After the stab, poor Secretariat tried desperately to convince me that killing the CSA was wrong and killing the USA was right. In the typical blind spot of the megalomaniac, I could hear him but wasn't listening real well. I was so elated with my nice treaty with Hacksaw down in Brazil and the chance to rid my northern border of a potential threat that I didn't notice until after the CSA was reduced to nothingness that instead of a smaller tannish-colored neighbor to my north, I now had a GIANT green one with no less than six armies in my immediate vicinity. I'd been using the ONE build I'd received from the destruction of the CSA and my Central American gains to build fleets to consolidate the Caribbean and aid Brazil in the obliteration of the rapidly-swelling French in the Atlantic.

So then orange writes me and runs some line of BS about how he wants to construct the borders of the modern US by owning Austin/Texas, my only gain from the war with the Confeds. By this point I realize I'm looking down the barrel of a VERY BIG GUN, as there's all this green up there and me with only a scattered few armies with which to hold back the tide. So I do the wrong thing and try to bluff him to gain some time to boot France out of the Caribbean and grab the last of the SCs in the islands. I tell orange that in the interests of relations between Mexico and the USA that he can have Aus, provided he never asks me for anything of that sort ever again, because I was getting dicked out of the only gain I made helping him fight his war with the Confeds.

He kept his end of the bargain. He never asked again.

France by this point is steamrolling the Caribbean and I don't have the power to stop it, and neither does Brazil. Then the US hordes descend in Winfield Scott-esque fashion upon me. I'm the meat in a real **** sandwich now, and not enjoying it one bit, but there's not a soul on the planet who can do anything about it, and I know it. Two useless counteroffensives later, that be the end of me.

So, my spelling may be a bit off, but Dios mio! Hay una hacha en mi cabeza!!

To quote one Mexican after the Mexican War, "Poor México, so far from God, so near the United States."

Only reason I invaded you was because I thought you and France made an alliance against me

I knew I couldn't take you both if France got powerful, so I took you out while I could.

Besides, who else was I going to fight??

**orange** · March 26, 2002, 22:12

any word on retreats? And/or the situation in the Java Sea?
