Hello there England! Pleasure to meet you 😄 You as well! I’d be interested in creating a DMZ in the English Channel, how about you? I would too, and I hope you are telling the truth too! Of course, in all honesty I have two fleets so I could force my way in anyways. I don’t want to do that though. What about Hol? Bel is obviously yours I wouldn't say obviously but I certainly wouldn't mind getting Bel and helping you into Hol if that were the case Obviously that would be great, germany would have to be on board though or else we would be making an enemy. By the way I am going to be asking Italy and Germany about what they think about you, I will let you know what they say. Sounds good, although I would expect Germany to expect Hol is his which might cause some conflicts. I'll ask around and do the same for you! Appreciated! Have you reached out with germany tomorrow? *yet I haven't yet, but I'll message him soon Have you heard anything? Germany would prefer to ally with me, I’m not interested in that though. Have you talked to him yet? Yes I've talked with him and told him that I'd move into Bur. He offered an FG alliance to me as well, which makes me doubt his geniuneness Of course, good thing we can just take him out I’m playing friendly with Germany as long as I can, should help us get some info or an easy capture Sounds good to me What areyour thoughts for this season? He’s worried about you going to Munich, how do you want to play that. I say that I leak to him that you are going there and then you don’t actually, it could let you get into Ruh and also keep him from building there I would love to move on Germany with you, however moving alone into Ruh would be overextending quite a bit What would you look for me to do to make you feel better about it Bounce Hol maybe? If you're gonna get him to cover Mun My other thought, and give me your opinion on this, is this. He told me he might bounce russia in Sweden. If I can confirm that and get russia to move into Bal instead, then Germany would be stuck in Sweden and i could sneak an army into Denmark. Germany would end up getting two builds but we would be in good position and Russia would then be involved Hehe that sounds tricky but exciting. Unfortunately I won't have a big part to play at least this Fall, but if you can pull it off with Russia I don't see why I wouldn't help you guys. You would be in a good position though, and have your two builds as well. I still have not gotten a 100% on the bounce attempt or heard back from Russia that he likes the idea. Because it does take some trust from Russia. The low risk play is to just bounce in Hol I just realized that if you go Ruh you can’t get Bel because of the way you opened I apologize for asking that of you. What are your thoughts on that? If you're going to bounce Hol I can either save Bel for later and move Ruh, or take it and be able to build A Bre/A Par for Germany and F Mar for defense against Italy. Not too sure what I'd do, do you have any thoughts? I would love if you moved into Ruh since it would apply some pressure, Germany told me they would be moving into Mun to cover it because it’s too risky not to Sounds good, let me know if you can get the BAL/Den situation figured out Yeah if that won’t work we can play more cautious. F Lon eh, understandable. How to proceed from here? Not sure, obviously your fleets make me nervous but how do you want to go after germany? I can support Lvp into Hol maybe but a bit worried about where Lon would go I will just reposition my fleets this round, Lon will be headed to NTH and I will surround Denmark with the other 2 I see us supporting each other more in the fall That sounds good to me, I'll probably make an advance on Bur then Apologies for the fleet in ENG, needed to go somewhere and now Germany trusts me I'll pull out and let you know what he's going to do this season Was going to ask about that, so I can trust that you won’t take Lon? I hope you can, but if you need to defend it I don't blame you Do you plan on bringing Yor to Den? If not, you could cover Lon with it for peace of mind Germany's told me that he'll just support his centers. I can cut Ruh and support Yor-Hol if NTH isn't busy, otherwise I might aim for a cheap shot in Mun Yeah I’ll take the support, thank you! How bout them Russians What about them? Any chance that you realize your stab failed and that you’re gonna back off?
