"I then raced to make sure I took Tunis, because if Turkey got Tunis, he could have disbanded Prussia and taken Berlin for 18 before Germany could have defended (I see that right, right?)."
I don't see it. How could Turkey taking Tunis affect my army in Prussia at all? Turkey couldn't have broken my stalemate line without help (it held from 1908. If he could have he would have). It could only fail if France attacked Ruhr or supported an attack on Mun. Every turn I held my breath hoping that hadn't happened.

Once we stopped arguing over the North Sea it freed up my fleet in Den so I moved it in what I hoped was the least France-threatening way I could (Ruhr/Mun was on my mind) in order to support WeM/NoA/Spa if Turkey kept pushing west.

Diabands Prussia and he can tap munich to take Berlin. Only pays to do that in the year to 18 since berlin would fall later. If he only needed one he could do it, more than one and the gambit doesn't matter. You need the baltic for a real stalemate line, I think

OMG! We both missed it for 11 turns.

I figured Turkey saw it, but was waiting to get Tunis. He would only have one run at it, so needed the 17 first... Wish he would enlighten us with his thinking.

Livonia going to Baltic would have sealed the line. Not worth the fight at this stage of the competition.

Ah I see what you mean...with the fleet in North as opposed to Barents. Could've got STP but even still Tunis was a bit of a stretch...

You could not grab Livonia, but would have disbanded Prussia for a Berlin grab before he could defend. I was pulling back to leave Italy to the wolves (i.e. you), and at first did not think about trying to grab Tunis on my way out. I think I almost screwed myself in trying to cut Italy out of the draw, but I turned around in time to get Tunis.

I was trying to screw you for trying to cut me out of the draw by throwing it to him until you were forced to support me but it became apparent that Turkey wasn't playing for the solo and rather just for the draw. That seemed to be the case in a couple of other games too and I think that's one way the points system modified peoples' gameplay.
