Napoleonic FFA - 8players

Prussia makes no Political offers this turn

sweden ask austria for an allience

Russian czar and his family are still in hiding. His ambassadors are asking everyone for help and trying to create a lasting peace for their people. Peace offering for anyone who will take it.

Austrian Empire declares war to France and accepts Alliance with Sweden.

As the tension between troops of France and Austria in Italy rises, Austrian Empire is forced to declare war to France.

“We are not happy to declare a war to France, but in order to maintain our independence and to protect our people, we must look critically into the future and acknowledge the threat France is posing to Europe. If Napoleon is not stopped when there is a window of opportunity to do it, then France will probably never be stopped and hundreds of thousands people will die. Therefore, there is no choise. This is our last chance to avoid unnecessary bloodshet in Europe.”

– Archduke Charles of Austria

Spain is upset I did not declare war on France(glad you didn’t too), and he said Austria had said I would. I told him I was sorry he was misled, but that I never promised that. (I did not tell him you are my one true Ally.)
I said I was sorry, but that we had our hands full in Russia and could not commit until it was eliminated.

Oops!

It seems an envoy has been captured.

I accept Russia’s request for peaceful cooperation in Europe.

(Could this count as going from ceasefire to open borders? He didn’t make a specific request other than asking for “peace”)

I am happy to accept it as an Open Borders offer.
Perhaps JWW will come back on and confirm that is what he wants  before Noll posts the Political Table. Still waiting on the Ottomans too, of course.

Hahahaha… Amazing! I feel like I accidentally picked up somebody else’s valentine card.

Spain accepts Russia’s offer of ‘open borders’ and wishes them all the best in their struggle for freedom.

The Ottomans will remain neutral on all grounds

Noll please remember to change Ottoman and Russian relationship to Ceasefire, as you forgot last turn.

@Noll:

Thank God I expected this, but I seriously question the smartness of an unprepared dow against a power that can crush you in 2 turns.

You’re on the clock now, pal.

Madrid will be your Vietnam.

France is winning the game and only a few players are doing something about it  :roll:

Noll won the last game too, mainly because UK player in that game did nothing to stop Noll from winning - even when said well in advance that he will be the only player able to deny France from winning, and that’s why he must take cities in Sweden. But no, UK chose to be Noll’s free navy  :roll:

Noll is the best in politics. He manages to do them in a way that half of the players play for a win for Noll  :-o

@Noll:

Lol apparently I am winning the game and three powers dowing me makes me a good politician. (From the guy that asked 4 players to attack me)
I wont win this game but you wont either :) And it will be my pleasure to erase spain from the game and then kill every austrian unit. I hope I can do it before someone else wins :)

Well, that’s your plan? Sounds good! I’m on :D
