Ulster (sirbela) - Hanover (empError) - Ukraine (LeResistance)
vs.
Grenada (Rex) - Corsica (vernet/ZeroKills) - Nicaea (MalaKira)
LeResistance had an excellent start, leading Malakira to desperation. In the middle, the between vernet and me seemed quite even, but I managed to surprise him by a move in winter, putting two armies in Genoa, next to an empty Corsica. At that point, ZeroKills replaced vernet. Corsica was taken in spring, and held for one more turn. There was talk of south conceding, but they had some hope of Grenada deciding the game, although sirbela looked at least as strong as Rex, at this point. So we played on. ZeroKills had more lands than me, even when I occupied Venetia, so I slowly lost my grip on him. Sirbela played excellent, being stronger than Rex throughout much of the game, even with two +2s on Rex's side. But in the end, England came under pressure, and Rex was gaining in strength. LeResistance had to decide the game for north, then. But he seemed unable to make a breakthrough, with MalaKira being just as strong. ZeroKills helped MalaKira for a while, leading to an south advantage on all sides. At that point, it was clear that north would not win the game, and north conceded turn 62.
