England has captured 18 supply centers. The game is over. However, this round's results require some explanation. Owen is no doubt scratching his head right now, wondering how he got pushed out of the Ionian Sea, given that he supported that unit's hold with two other units. I'll quote two complementary rules from the official Diplomacy rule book: 1. "A unit not ordered to move can be supported by a support order that mentions only its province." 2. "A unit ordered to move [Ionian Sea] can be supported by a support order that matches the move the unit is trying to make." In other words, a unit in motion cannot be supported by a "support hold" order, even if that unit bounces back to its original position. Ionian Sea was a unit in motion, thus its hold could not be supported. I seem to remember someone making this mistake before, but since it didn't affect the outcome in that instance, I didn't take the opportunity to clarify the rules at the time. My apologies.
