17 Aug 13 UTC	Spring, 1901: Hi :) In 1vs1 games: always push everything against the enemy first, dont go for SCs behind you!!
17 Aug 13 UTC	Spring, 1901: So, in your case, you would ignore Scandanavia and I should not try to cross the Med for SC's.
17 Aug 13 UTC	Spring, 1901: yep...
17 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1901: ...as already said...it is important to attack the enemy with full force, a strategically important non SC is more important in spring than gaining sure SCs in fall...as its the case with Tyrolia ;)
17 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1901: Is your method of attack first always best though? In the 2 games I've played, one player always waits to build strength and then attack. Or does that only work in multi-player?
17 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1901: No, of course gaining strength first is way smarter in multiplayer games. On the one hand, you can your enemy harder, on the other hand, you can wait and see what the others do, and then decide after that whom you support and whom you attack. Also, at the beginning usually every neighbor will tell you that he wants peace and a alliance and stuff (as should you with your neighbors). But if you move right in the beginning all on one player, who actually intended to stay loyal to you, it may easily happen that your other neighbors take advantage of that. BUT in two player games, you already know who your enemy is and while you wait and gain strength, so will he, so strike first and strike hard.
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1902: did you join any other games yet? 6^
19 Aug 13 UTC	Spring, 1903: No, I was looking around a bit, but didn't see anything of interest.
19 Aug 13 UTC	Spring, 1903: play the habely GB, the map is funny ^^
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: you should have given Tri a SH ;)
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: i didnt see the attack on Munich coming :(
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Well, I was concerned about your fleet. Obviously much to learn. I feel I'm back on my heels at the moment.
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: I'm also throw off from prior game strategy. I can only build in Italy as opposed to anywhere and I think I've now left my self very open to you...
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: Can we do Britain vs. Ottoman for the next game? I think I'd prefer a bit more room between us to start. :-)
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1903: actually, building only in your start SCs is normal, build anywhere games are exceptions ;) yeah sure
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: see that self-bouncing in Vienna? alsway good when you have to cover three territories with two armies
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: why didnt you drive me out of Tunis?
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: Got more concerned about your troops to the north
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: Also joined a public Ancient Med game. Hasn't started yet, but looked like a good version to play.
19 Aug 13 UTC	Autumn, 1904: yeah it is, though i think five arent enough for full press
