Now, will you die, sir?

Your planning horizon is shorter than mine then.
And you should know that I am already dead.
It seems they answer to the Germanic throne at Vienna, doesn't it?
Almost like your fleets are making homage to those upstart pretenders from Berlin. I expected much better from the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha...

Hey, at this point, I'm just moving pieces around on the board for funsies.
It would be quite 'funsies' to see the look on the smug Kaiser should you move your fleets into France and the low countries...

Perhaps the Austro-German Alliance did win, and we're just fighting a civil war?
Hmm...I don't actually ever recall leaving the British out to dry. Our only points of cooperation were during the invasion of Russia.
Russia, I don't think we stabbed.
Turkey had been a respectful adversary until recently.
Italy we've certainly been less than honest with (as they with us on occasion).
France we were working with until Italy went behind our backs and eliminated them.
And Germany we definitely stabbed.
Unfortunately, reis and I both seem to come from a Diplomacy tradition that tries not to attach too much emotional value to stabs. My presumption was that since it was obvious we couldn't advance past Warsaw and Moscow and it would require massive re-orientation to bring Germany's forces against us, that once that was done the war would effectively be over. Ah, c'est la vie.
I must admire the speed with which the Germans were able to re-orient and re-compose their military.
The German stab would have been better if (1) we didn't have Civil Disorder, (2) we had been able to shift more of our forces away from the Turkish flank.
Austria needs Britain to waver in order to win.
Britain remains resolute. Austria will not win.
Britain remains resolute. Austria will not win.
Germany needs Britain to remain resolute to solo win.
Britain remains resolute. Therefore Germany will win solo.
I will quit Austria if Britain ceases her foolish efforts at uniting Europe under a German banner, which is an aberration in terms of British foreign policy since times immemorial.
I will point out that if Britain stabbed Germany, all they would recieve for it would be the loss of their home supply centers, and extending the game even further while Austria climbs its way out of the rubble and secures itself for an Austrian-Turkish win.
I thought that was the point. Surely I wasn't the only one who thought that Britain's unswerving loyalty to Germany was in part because EURO would settle for nothing more or less than the destruction of reis?
