It seems like nothing will change (France didn’t enter a journal entry, probably for this reason). Will England succeed in getting Austria to change course?

GM Observations
No real change as far as I can tell. Not sure what to make of ADR-ION instead of GRE-ION.

France pulled his fleets back so it looks like he may be on board to let Austria take out Italy.
Italy
This is about as far west as I’m likely to make it. I suppose E/F are offering Austria the three-way now, and I suppose A will take it at some point, just out of sheer boredom.
Have I even set bits yet?

France’s recent moves suggest to me that E/F want me to attack Italy for a 3-way.
Tempting as this may be, I do not have ships in the water and can only build 1 per year in TRI. If I move against Italy, I am likely to be dominated by E/F fleets and their bond and mutual understanding seems solid.
If it opens up more, maybe I can reconsider, but I doubt E/F will withdraw too much further.
We shall see.
