Okay, here's my 2 cents. 

First thanks to Mike for a great GM job and to Colin
for his solo.

I came into this game in the W/S 1905 season to a 3
unit England who had just NBR'd.  I tried to get
something going with anyone who would listen - with
limited success.  France and I put a plan together and
I tried with Germany but his communication was
sporadic at best.  Russia was not wiling to turn on
Austria so I opted to go after Russia and Germany. 
With Frances help and some double dealing I turned
things around to my favor.  At that point I started
working harder on both Russia and Austria to turn on
the other.

Meanwhile France vanished and Martin stepped in to
finish it out.

I managed to get Russia to head after Austria and I
jumped into STP.  Unfortunately shortly after that
Russia went away and that's when Ray stepped in.

Ray's position was that he was just going to hold and
let them game finish out with the players who were
there.  While I remained skeptical he pretty much
stayed to that.  Then Austria convinced him to
actually play the game and the dance that followed
after that pretty much set it up for Austria to win. 
He and I made an agreement that netted him POR and he
screwed me out of the center I was to get.  That is
what allowed France to survive since I wasn't about to
stab him because we needed  his units if we were to
hold out for any length of time.  I managed to get Ray
to turn south but it  was too little too late.

However, it was great fun all around.

Thanks to all for all the fun.
