Disaster strikes. A complete lie by Germany. Germany had told me:

So, it’s an out-and-out betrayal. But, such is Diplomacy, and I strap on my big boy pants and give my props to EG:

So, I’m pretty bummed out. This is just a disaster for me. I only get one build while Germany and England each get two. Mar, Par, and Brest are all under threat. Italy reaches out and says he will do whatever he can to help. God, I love Italy. He’s great. He says he’ll move to the Western Med and Pie. I tell him that, if I am going to lose centers, I’ll set it up in such a say to lose to him first. I also want to show the board that I’m resilient, and that I’m not down and out.

Austria reaches out before I go to bed and sends me some positive vibes.

Austria bites a bit, and gives me some hope.

I’ll let that little nugget sit with Austria for awhile and hope it grows a bit during the next round of negotiations.
