Hey, while I somewhat agree that's not 'entirely' fair...

We have twelve VERY consistent and reliable players in the field on this one. It's just unfortunate that half of them are replacements... =P

Hi all, and thank you for the welcome greetings. I have had a difficult time getting my diplomatic corp together (work sucks). I will get back to many of you shortly (as well as the GM)

Thanks,
Bret - Emperor Japan

Hi everyone,

Please give a hearty welcome to Bret who is stepping in to helm the forces of the rising sun. Bret has been good enough to take up the position and allow us to keep this baby running. His email is bret_pollack(at)hotmail.com ([email]bret_pollack(at)hotmail.com[/email])

We have an interesting situation before us now, timing-wise. I'd like to give Bret at least a couple days to negotiate - but we have a couple players that will be without access from Nov 20 to Nov 28.

So I'd like to reschedule the Spring 1866 deadline for the middle of that time period. I realize that gives an adjudication in the middle of two players absences, but hopefully this will be acceptable due to the 're-do' nature of this turn. If not, just let me know and we can revise the deadline. Otherwise, please have any revised orders in by Friday, Nov 23rd (11:59 PM GMT.)

Thanks again for the patience everyone!

Trout
