BALKAN WARS VI A DIPLOMACY Variant

1. Where not otherwise specified, the rules of standard DIPLOMACY apply.

2. The six powers and their starting units are:
   ALBANIA: Choice Tirana, Choice Montenegro, Choice Valona
   BULGARIA: A Sofia, F Varna, A Plovdiv, Choice Thrace
   GREECE: Choice Athens*, A Solonika, F Sparta
   RUMANIA: A Bucharest, A Galati, F Constanta
   SERBIA: A Belgrade, A Nish, A Skopje
   TURKEY: A Constantinople, F Izmit, F Smyrna
      *Athens, due to the Corinth canal, is a single-coast province

3. There are 28 supply centers (19 home, 9 neutral). Victory criterion is 14 Supply Centers.

4. A Power can build new units in ANY unoccupied Supply Center she owns. Serbia may build fleets in Croatia when she owns that space.

5. There will be no "separation of seasons". Winter build/tear orders will be submitted with the Spring orders. This holds even for the "choice" starting units so that the first set of orders will cover Winter 1909/10 and Spring 1910.

6. Fleets in Bessarabia or Constanta may move and support, via the Danube River, into Galati, and vice-versa. Fleets can be built in Galati. Danube is NOT a space. Fleets remain in the regular provinces.

7. Direct passages: There are several Direct Passages across narrow bodies of water which may be used by both armies and fleets without interfering with the passage of fleets between adjacent sea spaces.

8. The usual convention of abbreviating a province's name by using either its initials or its first three letters may be used with the exception of Constantinople (Cone) and Constanta (Cona).
