Diplomacy Report for Austria (AUT)

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were focused on securing my Balkan objectives. I informed ITA, RUS, GER, and TUR of my planned moves: A BUD to SER, F TRI to ALB, and A VIE to BOH. TUR confirmed they would move into Bulgaria and promised non-interference, while GER agreed to leave Bohemia undisturbed if I refrained from countering their border interests. ITA acknowledged my moves and pledged not to contest them in the Balkans, though they hinted that TRI remains a long‐term target. RUS expressed a general desire for peace along their borders. Overall, the communications emphasized immediate non-aggression and mutual focus on distinct theaters.
• Intent: I will execute A BUD to SER, F TRI to ALB, and A VIE to BOH this turn to secure my influence in the Balkans. I intend to honor our agreements with TUR, GER, and ITA while keeping a flexible stance regarding future moves, particularly given ITA's long-term interest in TRI. My strategy seeks to ensure a stable shared border while advancing my expansion without provoking unnecessary conflicts.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I negotiated firmly with TUR, ITA, GER, and RUS to secure my Balkan and central positions. I reiterated that my moves into SER, ALB, and BOH are purely for consolidation and defensive stabilization. I proposed a non-aggression pact with TUR, ITA, and RUS and warned GER against interfering with my planned move into MUN. While I offered support for ITA’s plan to push from APU into GRE, ITA shifted focus to North Africa by moving F ION to TUN, showing a divergence in our immediate plans.
• Intent: I intend to move A BOH to MUN to secure my central frontier and, if circumstances allow, support ITA’s move into GRE. Given ITA’s pivot toward North Africa, I may reassign that support force. I will maintain non-aggression pacts with TUR and RUS along our shared borders and continue to defuse any interference from GER in Munich.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: In S1902M, I reaffirmed my commitment to expand centrally and secure the Balkans by ordering A BUD to SER, F TRI to ALB, and A VIE to BOH. I rejected ITA's proposal to trade guarantees over TRI for control of ALB and GRE, emphasizing that those centers are critical for both defense and future growth. Meanwhile, TUR and RUS confirmed their non-interference with my moves, and I reminded GER of our mutual non-aggression along the central frontier near Munich.
• Intent: I intend to execute my orders to consolidate my influence in both the Balkans and central Europe. I will closely monitor GER's actions in the Munich region, uphold the non-interference pacts with TUR and RUS, and be prepared to counter any encroachments. My strategy remains focused on retaining ALB and GRE while leveraging diplomatic assurances to mask my deeper ambitions.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: In negotiations, we consistently pushed for a clear Balkan division: AUT would solidify SER and ALB and support a move from BUD into RUM, while asking neighbors to keep their forces clear. ITA confirmed their focus on Greece and the Eastern Mediterranean, and they remain reliable in maintaining a non-aggression pact. Meanwhile, TUR initially indicated non-interference but then backtracked, signaling an intention to contest RUM—potentially in support of RUS—thereby breaking our mutual understanding.
• Intent: Proceed with supporting the move from BUD to RUM next turn, while consolidating SER and overall Balkan influence. Maintain coordination with ITA and call on GER to keep the central border quiet. Keep a close watch on TUR's actions and be prepared to counter any moves that contest our expansion into RUM, ensuring our strategic interests are not undermined.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-TUR--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: AUT confirmed its aggressive Balkan strategy by affirming the moves A BUD to RUM (supported by A SER), A MUN to SIL, and A VIE to GAL. ITA reaffirmed non-interference in the Balkans in exchange for freedom in the Mediterranean, and ENG was reassured that our actions do not compromise their sphere. In contrast, TUR first proposed a compromise regarding RUM but then broke the promise by moving A SEV into RUM, issuing a final warning and intensifying hostilities.
• Intent: Execute the moves as planned—advance A BUD to RUM (with A SER's support), push A MUN into SIL, and shift A VIE to GAL—to solidify AUT’s power in the Balkans and central areas. Prepare to respond forcefully to any further interference by TUR and maintain non-aggression with ITA and ENG to secure favorable fronts.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-TUR--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I initiated proposals to secure my Balkan interests by clarifying that my focus remains on consolidating RUM and SER. I pressed ITA for a formal non‐aggression pact regarding the Balkans, which they confirmed by promising not to interfere with my moves there, while I acknowledged their Mediterranean ambitions. Meanwhile, I warned TUR to withdraw from RUM; however, TUR not only refused but declared its intent to meet any support move into RUM with full force. I also ensured GER remains uninvolved near MUN. The negotiations left me with cooperative signals from ITA and stern hostility from TUR.
• Intent: I intend to support my move from BUD to RUM with reinforcement from SER to secure a firm hold in the Balkans, while using the non‐aggression pact with ITA to my advantage. I will proceed with my operations and prepare contingencies against TUR’s explicit threat, ensuring that any Turkish interference will be met with decisive counteraction.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-ITA+', 'AUT-TUR--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Confirmed our non‐aggression pact with ITA and received similar assurances from GER, allowing us to concentrate on our Balkan ambitions. We reiterated our planned moves (BUD→SER, TRI→ALB, VIE→BOH) to secure the Balkans while stressing our non‐involvement in the Mediterranean and central regions. ENG and RUS have been informed that our operations remain strictly local. TUR, however, has rejected any compromise by insisting on retaining RUM and threatening war, thereby escalating tensions.
• Intent: Execute our moves from BUD to SER, TRI to ALB, and VIE to BOH to solidify our position in the Balkans, while leveraging our agreements with ITA and GER to secure our flanks. Stay alert to TUR’s aggression and prepare a decisive counter if they interfere with our advance.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations recap: I confirmed with ITA that they will remain in the Mediterranean, moving A TYR to TRI, and will not interfere with my consolidation of the Balkans (SER and RUM). Meanwhile, TUR insists on contesting the Balkans by moving A CON to BUL, despite my repeated warnings and clear messages that AUT’s expansion in this region is non‐negotiable. I also reiterated to ENG, GER, and RUS that my actions are strictly about solidifying AUT’s central power and pose no threat to their fronts.
• Intent: I intend to fully secure the Balkans by consolidating SER and RUM, using support moves as needed to strengthen my positions. I will honor the non‐aggression pact with ITA in exchange for their non-interference in the Balkans, and I am prepared to respond decisively if TUR continues to provoke. I will keep a watchful eye on ENG, GER, and RUS to ensure that my moves remain unchallenged.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I emphasized that my moves in the Balkans—advancing from BUD into SER and consolidating RUM—are non‐negotiable. TUR confirmed their advance into BUL and suggested a division of influence, but I insisted on strict separation, warning that any incursion into SER or RUM would trigger decisive action. ITA, while assuring non‐interference in the Balkans, revealed troubling intent by moving A VEN to GRE and A TYR to VEN, hinting at future aggression. I also reminded GER and RUS to respect my central frontier near MUN and RUM.
• Intent: I plan to push from BUD to SER and secure RUM to bolster my Balkan control. I will closely monitor TUR to ensure they remain confined to BUL, and I will be wary of ITA and ready to counter any further provocations from their unexpected moves. Meanwhile, I intend to cooperate with GER and RUS to maintain stable borders in the center.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-ITA--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round, I made it absolutely clear that AUT’s sole focus is on consolidating Serbia (SER) and Rumania (RUM) in the Balkans. I warned both TUR and ITA that any interference in these zones would be met with decisive force. TUR countered by proposing a division of the Balkans—claiming Greece and Turkey for themselves while leaving SER and RUM for AUT—but their repeated incursions raise serious doubts about their commitment. ITA, on the other hand, offered a non‐aggression pact that guarantees Trieste, expecting me to limit my operations to the Balkans while they focus on the Mediterranean. I rejected this, insisting that Trieste is crucial to AUT’s central strategy and must not be traded off. I reiterated to ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS that they should keep to their own theaters and avoid the Balkan zone.
• Intent: I will proceed with a firm advance in the Balkans, consolidating SER and RUM at all costs. I am prepared to counter any move by TUR or ITA that undermines my objectives. My plan remains to secure key positions in the Balkans while coordinating silently with ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS to ensure stable fronts on their respective territories. Any deviation from my clear boundaries will be met with swift and uncompromising retaliation.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Intense negotiations unfolded. ITA proposed a non‐aggression pact offering guarantees over TRI and the Balkans in exchange for support in the Mediterranean, but AUT made it clear that our push from BUD to SER and consolidation of our central and Balkan positions are non‐negotiable. TUR's attempt to reposition A CON into BUL and later SMY to carve up the Balkans was sternly rejected, with AUT warning of decisive counteraction. Meanwhile, we reassured ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS that our operations are defensive and focused on our core, urging them to stay within their own theaters.
• Intent: Proceed with the planned advance from BUD to SER and further secure RUM while vigilantly monitoring any TUR or ITA interference in our designated zones. We will counter any moves that threaten our central positions and remain committed to defensive operations, subtly inviting ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS to stabilize their borders independently.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-ITA--', 'AUT-TUR--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were heated. I confirmed to ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS that my primary operations—moving A BOH to MUN (with support from A SIL) and then A BUD to RUM—are non‐negotiable, and I urged them not to contest my central and Balkan advances. I warned TUR to keep clear of my designated zones, while ITA's replies remained provocative: they pledged non-interference in the Balkans but demanded that I stay out of Trieste and Greece, even moving A TYR to TRI as a direct threat. TUR reassured me that, for now, they will not interfere in RUM, though they expect reciprocal restraint regarding Italy. Overall, the exchanges reinforced my focus on consolidating central positions and advancing in the Balkans while fending off ITA’s aggressive incursions.
• Intent: I will execute my planned moves into MUN and RUM/SER, firmly defending TRI and ALB against any Italian encroachments. I intend to rely on the confirmations from ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS to avoid interference in my areas while remaining prepared to counter any TUR or ITA aggression. My overall goal remains solidifying our central and Balkan front, and I will respond decisively if any party violates these zones.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round’s negotiations focused on securing my central and Balkan zones. I made it unequivocally clear to all that my moves—BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN—are solely aimed at bolstering Austrian power. I warned ITA against any further incursions into my sphere, particularly around Trieste, and reminded TUR to confine their operations to the Aegean and BUL while leaving RUM and SER undisturbed. ITA’s defiant reply, insisting on their Mediterranean ambitions, confirms their breach of our mutual understanding, while TUR’s promise to avoid interfering in my moves provides a modicum of assurance to the others (ENG, FRA, GER, RUS).
• Intent: I will advance from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN to consolidate control. My strategy is to exploit any provocation—especially from ITA—and respond decisively should they extend their operations into my sphere, while keeping the front stable with ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS.
• Relationship Updates: ['ITA--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were intense this round. I reiterated AUT’s commitment to a defensive posture in the Balkans and central regions, emphasizing our operations in SER, UKR, and VEN as strictly for consolidating our power. I confirmed a temporary non‐aggression understanding with TUR, who promised to concentrate on the Aegean against ITA. In contrast, ITA has not only refused to budge on their offensive rhetoric but also threatened to move A TYR to VEN, warning that any further Austrian presence will be met with force. My messages to ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS stressed that our operations remain confined to our zone, urging all to respect mutually agreed borders.
• Intent: I plan to fortify AUT’s hold in the Balkan and central sectors while preparing to counter ITA’s impending move on VEN. I will monitor ITA’s actions closely and, if necessary, quickly reinforce our positions to repel their advance. Meanwhile, I will maintain the non‐aggression pact with TUR to secure our eastern flank and use calculated diplomatic ambiguity with ENG, FRA, GER, and RUS to keep them from interfering with our primary objectives.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-ITA--', 'AUT-TUR~']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round of negotiations was marked by heightened tensions. ITA has doubled down on its aggressive claims over VEN, threatening to reclaim it using moves involving A TYR, A MAR, and A PIE. GER, after initially suggesting a non-aggression pact, has now aligned with RUS and declared its intention to attack VIE and TRI, forcing AUT to brace for a northern front conflict. In contrast, TUR has been cooperative, reaffirming its commitment to confining operations to the Aegean and coordinating on any Italian provocations, while ENG, FRA, and RUS have remained silent on immediate operational matters.
• Intent: I will maintain my focus on consolidating the Balkans by reinforcing key centers in SER and RUM while preparing defensive measures against potential attacks on VIE and TRI. I plan to monitor ITA’s maneuvers with caution and, if necessary, reposition forces to counter their aggression in VEN. Coordination with TUR will be prioritized to secure our mutual interests in the region, and I will seek further diplomatic assurances from ENG and FRA to stabilize my borders.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-GER--', 'AUT-TUR+']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round, negotiations centered on our longstanding Balkan ambitions and the reaffirmation of our non-aggression pact with TUR. I reiterated that Austria’s centers in BUD, SER, RUM, BUL, and VEN are critical for our consolidation, and that any interference—especially in these zones—will be met with firm resistance. TUR confirmed their commitment to focus solely on the Aegean and contain Italy, whereas ITA doubled down on its claims over VEN and TRI, openly breaking any hope of compromise and signaling a clear intent to wage war.
• Intent: I plan to hold my current positions in the Balkans to secure our vital centers while covertly preparing defensive and counter-offensive measures against ITA’s aggression. My strategy will leverage our stable arrangements with TUR to keep Italy contained in the Mediterranean, and I remain ready to shift from defense to calculated aggression if ITA oversteps further. Future moves will focus on exploiting any Italian missteps while ensuring that our borders with ENG, FRA, and RUS remain undisturbed.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations reached an intense peak. TUR reaffirmed our non-aggression pact for the Balkans, insisting on focusing solely on the Aegean and promising not to interfere in RUM or SER. Meanwhile, ITA doubled down on its claim over VEN by threatening to move A TYR into it, and GER openly declared war by announcing plans to strike at our centers—targeting VIE, TRI, BOH, and GAL. My calls for de-escalation and adherence to agreed zones were rebuffed, leaving the field set for imminent conflict.
• Intent: I plan to hold firm in the Balkans by reinforcing RUM, SER, and other vital centers while preparing robust defenses for VEN, BOH, and GAL against ITA and GER. I will honor the pact with TUR and seek to leverage their non-interference as I consolidate my forces. Simultaneously, I’m primed to launch targeted countermeasures should the opposition overextend, and I remain open to discrete coordination with ENG, FRA, and RUS to limit collateral escalation.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were intense this round. TUR reaffirmed their commitment to remain in the AEG, promising not to interfere in the Balkans, while I stressed AUT’s unwavering focus on consolidating our key centers in the Balkans via our planned BUD-to-RUM operation with SER support. ITA, on the other hand, rejected any compromise regarding VEN, issuing a direct threat to take it by force—clearly escalating tensions. I also clarified with ENG, FRA, and RUS that our operations are strictly Balkan/central, leaving our respective borders undisturbed.
• Intent: Proceed with our non‐negotiable agenda by pushing our BUD-to-RUM move supported by SER to secure the Balkans. Prepare to counter ITA’s inevitable aggression over VEN while trusting TUR to keep their focus in the AEG. Maintain clear boundaries with ENG, FRA, and RUS to avoid external complications.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I reiterated AUT’s commitment to advancing from Budapest into Serbia and consolidating Rumania for a secure Balkan front. I called on TUR, ENG, FRA, and RUS to keep their moves away from our critical zones. In response, GER and ITA issued vehement ultimatums – GER declared war with designs on Vienna and Trieste, while ITA insisted that Venice (and Trieste) rightly belong to them. TUR reaffirmed non‐aggression in the Balkans, which I intend to leverage despite the hostile stances from GER and ITA.
• Intent: Advance from BUD into SER and secure RUM while defending key centers (VEN, TRI, VIE) with rapid countermeasures if needed. I will rely on TUR’s promise to stay out of the Balkans and maintain coordinated boundaries with ENG, FRA, and RUS, while preparing to meet any German or Italian aggression decisively.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-GER--', 'AUT-ITA--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: In F1910M, I (AUT) restated my unwavering commitment to the Balkans by reinforcing my operations in SER and RUM. ITA continues to issue aggressive demands regarding VEN and ROM, threatening war if I do not withdraw, while GER’s offer of a non‐aggression pact is contingent on me avoiding interference in VIE and TRI. TUR has confirmed non‐interference in my Balkan push as they focus on their own challenges. ENG, FRA, and RUS have been advised to solidify their own positions.
• Intent: I plan to advance further into SER and RUM with decisive moves while ensuring my key centers in VIE and TRI remain secure. I will honor the tacit understanding with TUR and stay alert to GER’s conditional offer, but remain prepared to counter ITA’s provocations aggressively if they escalate.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations concluded with AUT stressing that our Balkan advances—from Budapest into Serbia and from Rumania towards Ukraine—are final and non‐negotiable. We pressed ENG, FRA, and RUS to keep their operations within their own zones to avoid border conflicts. TUR reaffirmed their commitment to focus solely on the Aegean, while GER repeated hostile warnings and detailed plans to reposition their units (e.g., moving SIL to BOH and WAR towards GAL) to secure their own interests.
• Intent: Our plan is to consolidate our Balkan and central positions by executing the planned moves (Budapest -> Serbia and Rumania -> Ukraine when the opportunity arises) while maintaining clear borders with ENG, FRA, and RUS and ensuring TUR remains focused on the Aegean. We are fully prepared to counter any aggressive interference from GER or ITA if they attempt to disrupt our advances.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were intense. I reiterated that AUT’s operations—from advancing Budapest into Serbia, pushing Rumania into Ukraine, and repositioning Trieste toward Venice—are final. TUR reaffirmed their commitment to focus solely on Bulgaria, while ENG, FRA, and RUS were urged to keep to their own theaters. GER’s earlier promise of non-aggression was undercut by their later message indicating aggressive support moves (moving SIL to BOH and WAR to UKR targeting RUS), and ITA received a stern warning not to encroach on AUT’s sphere. Overall, the discussions set the stage for a decisive Balkan push while highlighting potential volatility from GER’s actions.
• Intent: I plan to execute the declared moves with full resolve, consolidating power in the Balkans by advancing from Budapest to Serbia, from Rumania to Ukraine, and repositioning from Trieste to Venice. I will coordinate with TUR regarding Bulgaria and be prepared to counter any interference from ITA or GER. Their aggressive posture, especially GER’s actions against RUS, may allow me to secure central positions with minimal interference.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: In negotiations, I reiterated AUT's resolve to press our strategic moves in the Balkans and central regions. I informed all parties that our orders—moving from Budapest to Serbia, from Rumania toward Ukraine, and repositioning Trieste toward Venice—are final and non‐negotiable. I warned ITA and GER that any interference would be met with swift countermeasures, while urging ENG, FRA, and RUS to maintain discipline along their borders. TUR reaffirmed their focus on the Aegean and non-interference in our zones, and GER confirmed non-aggression in the Balkans, albeit with a caution to focus on their own survival.
• Intent: Proceed with our moves (BUD->SER, RUM->UKR, TRI->VEN) to consolidate our core centers in the Balkans and central territories. Maintain our non-aggression pact with TUR, monitor ENG, FRA, and RUS for border restraint, and prepare to respond decisively if ITA or GER interfere with our advances.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round, AUT reaffirmed its unyielding commitment to secure the Balkans by advancing from Budapest to Serbia, pushing from Rumania toward Ukraine, and repositioning Trieste into Venice. TUR confirmed focusing solely on the Aegean and Anatolia, avoiding our sphere, while GER reiterated a non-aggression stance despite our firm warning. ITA’s earlier provocations were noted, with our message clear: any interference will be met with immediate and robust countermeasures.
• Intent: Execute the moves from Budapest to Serbia, from Rumania toward Ukraine, and reposition Trieste into Venice. Continue using deterrence against GER and ITA while relying on TUR's restraint to maintain our exclusive Balkan operations.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round, I (AUT) reasserted our non‐negotiable plans in the Balkans and central Europe – our advances from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN are set in stone. I warned ITA and GER that any interference in these areas will be met with decisive force, while urging ENG, FRA, and RUS to keep to their own theaters. TUR reaffirmed its commitment to non-interference in my sphere. Notably, GER’s remark about moving A SIL to BOH and A WAR to UKR (aimed at preparing for war with RUS) only reinforces our already hostile stance toward them.
• Intent: I will proceed with our established moves to secure Serbia, Ukraine, and Venice, using our consolidated positions in the Balkans as a springboard for further expansion. I plan to coordinate informally with TUR regarding the Aegean while remaining alert to potential provocations from ITA and GER. My strategy is to leverage swift countermeasures against any encroachments in our vital zones.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were intense. Initially, I reaffirmed AUT's commitment to the Balkans by emphasizing moves from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN, while warning ITA against overstepping. GER repeatedly confirmed a non‐aggression pact, suggesting that we focus on ROM and SER recovery with his support if RUS interfered. In contrast, TUR, who earlier promised to keep operations in the Aegean and BUL, has broken that commitment by moving A CON to BUL and demanding our retreat from key advances. This aggressive shift from TUR marks a clear breach of trust.
• Intent: Proceed with the planned moves: push from BUD into SER, shift RUM toward UKR, and reposition TRI to VEN. Prepare defensive countermeasures in case TUR persists in its aggression, and lean on GER's offer of non-interference if RUS intervenes. My overall goal remains to secure and expand AUT’s influence in the Balkans and central territories.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-TUR--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Over the course of negotiations, I repeatedly stressed that AUT is solely focused on consolidating its Balkan and central positions with moves from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN. GER has reasserted its non‐aggression offer—with its attention on ENG and RUS—while TUR reassured me that its operations remain in the Aegean and that it will not interfere with my moves in SER and RUM.
• Intent: My plan remains to secure central control by advancing into SER, strengthening defense with the move from RUM to UKR, and locking down VEN from TRI. I will honor non-interference if reciprocated, but any deviation from these commitments by GER or TUR will be met with decisive countermeasures to protect my core positions.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-GER--', 'AUT-TUR--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I made it crystal clear to GER that AUT’s core Balkan operations are non‐negotiable and that any attempt to interfere—especially in our designated moves from Budapest, Rumania, and Trieste—will be met with force. I urged ENG, FRA, and RUS to keep their operations strictly within their own borders. Meanwhile, TUR reassured me by reaffirming its commitment to the Aegean and promising not to intrude into the Balkans, even after moving into BUL. GER, however, persisted with alliance proposals, attempting to link my fate to a northern campaign against ENG.
• Intent: Proceed with my deceptive plan by publicly committing to consolidating the Balkans (ostensibly with moves BUD→SER, RUM→UKR, TRI→VEN) while masking any divergent operational maneuvers. I will keep GER isolated and hostile, monitor TUR closely for any border overreach, and maintain a firm stance with ENG, FRA, and RUS to avoid unwanted interference.

TUR confirmed its Aegean focus and non-interference, and GER accepted a non‐aggression pact, pledging to concentrate on the North and East. I warned ITA that any meddling in our core Balkan zone would be met with force, and reminded ENG, FRA, and RUS to honor disciplined borders. Overall, the exchanges left our moves final and non‐negotiable, with clear expectations on each front.
• Intent: Proceed with the planned moves: move from Budapest into Serbia, push from Rumania into Ukraine, and reposition from Trieste into Venice. Hold BUL and GRE as secure anchors while using our diplomacy to reinforce non-interference from TUR and GER and to deter ITA from challenging our operations.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: This round, I reiterated AUT's fixed Balkan agenda—advancing from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and shifting TRI to VEN—while firmly warning ITA against any designs in our zone. I emphasized non‐interference with TUR, and coordinated with GER by acknowledging their concerns over RUS and expressing readiness to join defensive measures should the eastern threat materialize. All players were reminded to confine operations to their own theaters to avoid unnecessary friction.
• Intent: I intend to execute our planned moves in the Balkans as announced. My objective is to consolidate our hold in SER, UKR, and VEN while remaining alert to potential RUS aggression. I will continue to nurture our pact with GER for coordinated defenses and maintain strict boundaries with TUR and others, ensuring that any deviation—especially from ITA—is met with decisive countermeasures.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I confirmed my irrevocable Balkan advances – moving from BUD to SER, from RUM to UKR, and from TRI to VEN – and made it clear these moves are strictly aimed at consolidating my core territory. I issued a stern warning to ITA against any encroachment in these zones, while reinforcing with ENG, FRA, and RUS that my operations are confined solely to the Balkans. GER reaffirmed their non-aggression stance and even hinted at potential coordination against any RUS opportunism, and TUR confirmed their focus on the Aegean and on countering ITA’s maneuvers.
• Intent: Execute my predetermined Balkan moves with precision, remain on alert for any Russian flank maneuvers, and be ready to coordinate with GER if necessary. Continue to use firm, decisive messaging to deter ITA from interfering, and ensure that ENG, FRA, and RUS adhere to stable, well-defined borders.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations concluded with firm confirmations from GER and TUR. GER agreed to a formal non‐aggression pact, committing to keep its operations in the north and east while TUR reassured that its focus would remain solely on the AEG, moving F AEG to GRE. I reiterated that my advances in the Balkans (BUD→SER, RUM→UKR, TRI→VEN) are final, and issued a stark warning to ITA against any interference. These discussions solidified our mutual expectations without any breaches.
• Intent: I will follow through with my established Balkan moves and expect GER to coordinate with me should ITA provoke further. I will also monitor TUR to ensure they remain within the AEG, thus preserving the delineated spheres. My approach remains aggressive towards ITA if they step into my zone, while I rely on confirmed non‐aggression with GER and TUR to secure my flank.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Our negotiations this round centered on making our Balkan consolidation unequivocal. We reasserted that our planned moves from BUD to SER, from RUM to UKR, and repositioning TRI to VEN are final. We warned ITA that any interference in our sphere will incur swift punishment, while GER and TUR reiterated their commitment to non-aggression and focus on their own theaters. FRA, however, continued to issue hostile warnings, insisting we avoid western moves. RUS’s quiet maneuver from WAR to LVN also underscores potential eastern volatility.
• Intent: Proceed with our predetermined Balkan moves while coordinating with GER and TUR to monitor and contain any external threats (especially from RUS and a meddling FRA). Continue pressuring ITA to stay out of our influential areas, and prepare countermeasures should FRA try to expand into our zone.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-FRA-']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I reaffirmed AUT’s uncompromising commitment to a decisive Balkan advance—pushing from Budapest to Serbia, from Rumania to Ukraine, and moving Trieste into Venice. I ensured GER that if RUS shows aggression by attacking MOS, my UKR unit will immediately come to their aid, while also expecting timely updates from them. I pressed TUR to clarify that their unit at CON (now repositioning to BUL) remains strictly defensive in the Aegean, and I warned ITA to steer clear of my designated zones. The tone was firm: AUT’s orders are final, and any interference in the Balkans will be met with decisive action.
• Intent: Proceed with the planned Balkan moves (BUD -> SER, RUM -> UKR, TRI -> VEN) without compromise. Support GER’s defense if RUS makes a move against MOS and monitor TUR’s actions to ensure they don’t stray into our operating zone. Maintain vigilance over ITA’s interference while exploiting the situation to consolidate AUT’s regional dominance.

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were dominated by AUT’s unwavering commitment to its Balkan operations: advancing from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN. GER repeatedly proposed an alliance with demands for a swap of key territories (KIE and UKR) in exchange for support against RUS, but AUT firmly rejected any concessions that would relinquish control over SER or UKR. TUR reassured AUT of a strictly Aegean focus with moves aimed at containing ITA (securing BUL and GRE), and warnings were issued to FRA and ITA to steer clear of the Balkans.
• Intent: Proceed with the established Balkan moves and secure vital centers (SER, UKR) while remaining on guard against any flank threats—particularly from RUS or ENG. Offer conditional support to GER only if external aggression threatens, but refuse any territorial concessions. Maintain clear spheres with TUR and continue to warn FRA/ITA to avoid interference.
• Relationship Updates: ['GER-']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: In subrounds 1-4 I maintained a resolute message: my Balkan operations are fixed and non-negotiable. I declared a planned advance from Budapest, Rumania and Trieste to secure key centers (SER, UKR, VEN) and warned FRA/ITA against interference, while pressing GER to focus on MOS against RUS and confirming TUR’s confinement to the Aegean. GER expressed concern over my moves but ultimately reassured me by committing their support (moving A SIL to BOH) to jointly counter RUS.
• Intent: Although publicly I pledged a defensive consolidation in the Balkans, my orders reflect a subtler intent: I am covertly redirecting force toward RUS by moving from UKR to MOS (with WAR’s support) while holding other units as a credible posture. I plan to use this deception to check RUS and exploit any overextensions by our opponents while keeping TUR strictly in their declared zone.
• Relationship Updates: ['GER-AUT+']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: I secured a formal alliance with GER after tense back‐and‐forths over my consolidation moves in the Balkans.

TUR reaffirmed his commitment to remain in the Aegean and keep ITA in check, while my ultimatum to ITA was reiterated clearly. Overall, the negotiations reinforced our united front against RUS with clear borders between our theaters.
• Intent: I will execute my moves this phase by advancing from BUD to SER, shifting from RUM to UKR, and repositioning from TRI to VEN. With GER defending MOS and supporting my move into UKR, I aim to neutralize RUS. I will maintain a strict separation with TUR in the Aegean and remain unyielding to any ITA interference in my Balkan sphere.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-GER++']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: Negotiations were intense. I reaffirmed my commitment to securing the Balkans with moves from BUD to SER, from RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN while warning ITA against any interference. TUR maintained a strictly defensive posture in the Aegean, which I welcomed. However, GER has taken extreme offense to my repositioning into VEN and, accusing me of betrayal, has declared war—thereby shattering our previous alliance and complicating our coordinated efforts against RUS.
• Intent: I will proceed with my planned moves in the Balkans, consolidating key centers and countering potential Russian moves. Despite GER’s unexpected hostility, my focus remains on fortifying my territory. I will also keep close communication with TUR, ensuring they remain occupied in the Aegean, and remain alert to any ITA interference.
• Relationship Updates: ['AUT-GER--']

Final Summary (AUT):

• Journal Summary: In negotiations I reiterated that my planned moves from BUD to SER, RUM to UKR, and TRI to VEN are solely aimed at securing my Balkan heartland.
