Imperial Dip 50: Spring 1872 Moves

[orange]

i'll do the map if Ruffhaus can't

Figures. I was just slow enough to insure the game gets slowed down even more.

The moves'll be up this afternoon with anything approaching luck.

[RUFFHAUS 8]

Not that this is a crisis or anything, but I will be away for the weekend, and even if I do manage internet access, I will not be able to update the map until I return sometime Sunday.

General notice: An extension has been requested and granted. Moves are now due Tuesday.

Strategic Maneuvers, ha!
Confederates retreat battle cry,
"Feet, don't fail me now"

[RUFFHAUS 8]

The map has been updated to include the strategic manuevers of the Confederate fleets as they lure the outgunned junk out to sea...

[RUFFHAUS 8]

Since it doesn't seem to affect anyone else, and the deadline is approaching, I'll post my retreats here just as I sent them to the GM:

Dip 50 Imperial - Summer 1872 Confederate States of America Orders

F Kuril Trench retreats to Western Pacific Ocean
F Luzon retreats to Mindanao

Do we really need all this insult/compliment press anymore? The thread is much more amusing.

i'll be sure to slip a $50 into her G-string with instructions to give it to you, so long as you get your forces off my border!

You can find her dancing at the Butt Hutt on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. Last week she told me that 20mm is a more accurate figure for him.

Please check for accuracy, thank you.

Observations:

* As noted above, CSA F Kuril Trench has a retreat option of Western Pacific Ocean.

* CSA F Canary Islands - Bay of Biscay was supported by CSA F Strait of Gibralter, and therfore should succeed 2v1, dislodging English F Bay of Biscay, which then is disbanded from a lack of available retreats. Corresponding bounces of CSA fleets all the way back to Paramaribo should also advance.

* Turkish A Baku - Georgia fails 2v2, and Turkish A Angora - Baku bounces with Baku.

As a note: Yes, the Admiral, after a long period of dissapearance, finally made his daring escape into the Western Pacific Ocean after realizing that the fleet that moved south there wasn't replaced. Oops.

Also, the 2:3 refers to the supported advance on the Phillipine Sea, which was supported defensively twice. Luzon was indeed dislodged 2:1.
