10 Jan 22 UTC Spring, 1891: [Rajasthan]:So Hamra, Arafura and Ishfahan have a triple alliance. They are very committed to it and are planning far ahead, because Hamra and Ishfahan are building a lot of fleets to be able to take the western continent. Hamra even forfeited a build because he did not have another port to build a fleet in. Their builds also make it so that it is difficult for them to stab each other. Since Ishfahan is in the corner, he would normally be most positioned to stab, but 2/3 of his units are fleets.

I applaud them for making this triple alliance work so effectively. And truth be told, I was absolutely fooled and did not see the double backstab (from Hamra and Arafura) coming. I am curious if the rest of the board will be able to stop them. They already control more than 1/3 of all the supply centers on the board and are poised to take more centers this year (from me and possibly Sakhalin). When they reach 1/2 of the centers, I think they are unstoppable, and I bet this game would end in a 3-way draw between Hamra, Ishfahan and Arafura.

I did not play this well myself... Kyushu and I could never see to trust each other. I attacked Ming-tao, but in hindsight that was clearly the wrong move. Well, I will play on and still try to make the best of this game! I hope the others will be able to unite against the common threat and I will do what I can to help, though I will get severely reduced in power this year...
10 Jan 22 UTC Autumn, 1891: [Jylland]:I will do my best to stop this triple alliance threat, don't worry
10 Jan 22 UTC Autumn, 1891: [Valparaiso]:and I am sure that Ishfahan comes in peace and ready to seek for new alliances if not close friends!
10 Jan 22 UTC Autumn, 1891: [Rajasthan]:Thank you for your support, Jylland. Much appreciated. :P
11 Jan 22 UTC Autumn, 1891: [Ishfahan]:It's a little early for EoG reports Raj haha
