Since there have been a number of postings recently about 2-way alliances
I've decided to conduct a survey of rec.games.diplomacy readers to
see which 2-way alliances are the most popular.

Listed below are the 21 different 2-way alliances.  Give each alliance
an integer from 1 (low) to 10 (high) and mail the completed form either
to rec.games.diplomacy or amt5man@ecusun.leeds.ac.uk

(Given the right players any 2-way alliance can work, but which are
the strongest?  Which 2-way alliances are considered to be the most
`natural'?  We hope to find this out!)

Austria - England ...................
Austria - France  ...................
Austria - Germany ...................
Austria - Italy   ...................
Austria - Russia  ...................
Austria - Turkey  ...................
England - France  ...................
England - Germany ...................
England - Italy   ...................
England - Russia  ...................
England - Turkey  ...................
France  - Germany ...................
France  - Italy   ...................
France  - Russia  ...................
France  - Turkey  ...................
Germany - Italy   ...................
Germany - Russia  ...................
Germany - Turkey  ...................
Italy   - Russia  ...................
Italy   - Turkey  ...................
Russia  - Turkey  ...................

Remember!  Read it, think about it and then mail it!

I'd like to go even further, and publish a series of articles in EPC2 about
strong alliances. This is an official call for submissions: I am now
soliciting detailed explanations of which power represents the best alliance
prospect for Austria, and why. I'll edit and publish the best of the bunch,
and issue a call for similar articles for the other powers once this gets
rolling.  Mail submissions irilyth@fenris.claremont.edu; I'll confirm
receipt via e-mail. Submitting an article implicity grants EPC2 the right to
reproduce it freely.

I will also publish the results of Mark's survey, if he sends them on to me
once it is completed.
