Summary

Whoa, Nelly, have we got a story for you! In the aftermath of failed efforts to achieve satisfaction with reparations and with the intervention into Russia, one could be left feeling sorry themselves if you happened to be a delegate in this fictional version of Paris in late March 1919. However, the real movements were coming not from the halls of peace, but out on the streets and in the devious minds of disaffected leaders and citizens, determined to right by France...no matter who stood in the way!

Thank you. Hello and welcome delegates all to episode 9 of the delegation game.

0:42.6

We have a very loaded episode in store for you all today, as if there was any other kind of delegation game episode.

0:51.5

I will start by saying that the players, Lithlilia and James, have

still not informed me of the delegates they'd like to play as, so I'll be choosing for at least one

1:00.3

of them today. As soon as these two players let me know who they'd like to play as, I'll happily

1:04.5

replace them, but for their foreseeable future, Lithlilia, you are now representing

1:09.5

Marshall Ferdinand Fosh

1:11.4

But James you have one more week before I assign someone to you

1:14.2

For the moment I'll be posing as Marshall Fosh

1:16.8

Since Lith Lillia is not really signed up to any of those things

Lithlilia if you want to make the most of this game. I'll be posing as

Marshall Fosh and I'll be doing my best to answer all the mail that comes in. I'm already playing

1:34.7

as Nicola Paceous and Sean T. O'Kelly as well. So yeah, I've already got a very busy schedule.

1:40.7

So if Lithlilia could take up Marshall Ferdinand Fosh's duties, that would be swell.

1:46.0

Today we'll discover just how prominent Lithuilia's delegate will be, as our episode is rocked

1:50.4

by two main events, the first one created by the passage of a successful scheme.

1:54.7

Ooh, interesting.

1:55.9

The second one imagined by me as a realistic response to the unfolding situation in Europe. Without any further
