I think Switzerland would win. Or maybe those guys in Alpha Centauri, after catching F Pru as a ride to Earth.
Well, as you said, it was a 50-50 shot. You folks played a good game, truly.
And honestly, if circumstances were different and I didn't feel honour bound to keep the alliance with germany, that stab would probably have gone through, and this game would still be wide open for any combination of winners.
Randakar, well...I'm speechless.
Congratulations to France and Germany, especially to Randakar, who took the lead in the moment I lost my lust to play. And as I have seen from the PM-fests, he has lead France far better than I did.
The first post of the general thread updated to reflect the end of the game.
I take full credit for this victory. By not trying to send in an order for euro, Germany maintained its superiority. Still working on trying to figure out the rules. Will play again, and hopefully be more active next time.
