Good game. It's not easy playing Russia on this map... Turkey gets more reinforcements as time goes on from Cyprus and Crete.

I agree. I think I was lucky on two fronts - a) Austria's NMR in Autumn 1902 meant I could regain Bulgaria and push past that natural stalemate line; and b) you (Russia) didn't challenge me for the Black Sea. I think that on this map it is more important than ever that Russia takes the BS (or at the very least doesn't let Turkey take it!).

Yeah it's also important for Italy that nobody takes Ionian. In 1904, right after you built 2 new fleets, he ignored my alliance requests, threw all he got West and let one of your 4 fleets take Ionian within the year. Perhaps he thought that fighting France Austria and Turkey at the same time is a good strategy for Italy. I'm afraid we'll never know, he disappeared some days before the end.
Instead, good strategic game by raapers2, I have to say. But that's not a news. I remember I thought that he read my mind, when I saw he disbanded Pic.
