And when I say it sucks to be you, I of course mean YOU, Paul Russell. Not that it's great to be Michael, mind you. But Michael (in spite of his first NMR) has the solace of treading water for yet one more season. All hail the King of Belgium. Poor Paul, on the other hand, has been the victim of a wealth redistribution program (and by wealth redistribution, I of course mean that he's been jumped in a back alleyway and robbed blind). And that traveling army in Picardy we were all marveling about last season is now kind of out-of-position for defending the Austrian homeland.

Not to be overlooked, there's an English fleet in Brest, too. But I'm sure it's nothing to worry about.

I guess we have officially reached the Middle Game. As they say in square dancing, "Change your partner..."

There are two retreats:

Russian A Livonia can retreat to Prussia, Moscow, Warsaw, or OTB.
Austrian A Munich can retreat to Bohemia, Tyrolia, or OTB.

Furthermore, EVERYBODY but Germany has adjustments due tomorrow at 14:00 CST. Assuming no OTB retreats, we have:

Austria: Supp 4 Unit 7 Remove 3
England: Supp 8 Unit 7 Build 1
France: Supp 5 Unit 6 Remove 1
Germany: Supp 1 Unit 1 Build 0
Italy: Supp 1 Unit 2 Remove 1
Russia: Supp 9 Unit 7 Build 2
Turkey: Supp 6 Unit 4 Build 2

Adjustment orders CAN be made conditional upon retreat orders. It figures to be a fun Autumn and Winter.
