Heya guys,
All orders are in and the action is grooving again. The board definitely seems split into two halves - one moving northwards, the other moving south. Not necessarily good news for those powers in the corners though...
Two retreats were the result - the English in London and the Russians in Rumania. However, only one option other than OTB was available in both cases. Therefore I took the liberty and sent the two units packing to Yorkshire and Sevastopol respectively. (If OTB is preferred in either case then please just let me know.)
Reluctantly, I have to admit that I'm giving up hope that Babak will be able to resume as GM of this game. Please don't start screaming, but it looks as though you folks are stuck with me. I will continue on as GM until Babak specifically writes to me and lets me know that he is able to resume.
So - please send all orders to me for now. The next turn is Fall 03 - we'll set the deadline for Thursday, April 16th (11:59 PM GMT).
Happy Easter everyone. Hope the lil bunny is good to all of ya. =P
Cheers!
