.ExternalClass .EC_hmmessage P {padding:0px;} .ExternalClass body.EC_hmmessage {font-size:10pt;font-family:Verdana;} Hey folks, here it is. A couple of issues to mention first off:

1. I am going to change the time of day that I make my deadlines. It has become clear to me with my new job etc that evenings just aren't working out, so I'm moving the times up by 5 hours. This will make them due at 5 pm my time, or 11 pm GMT on the same day.

2. I have a request for a short delay due to a holiday, which will put off Autumn and Winter for a few days. The new deadline will be in six days, on Monday the 6th of July, at 17:00 MST, which is for autumn retreats. Winter adjustments will be due on Tuesday the 7th. Please note that if I get an order from Russia marked as FINAL I will adjudicate the autumn turn early, but winter will still be due on Tuesday the 7th because of the requested delay.

Okay, now on to the goods. There are rumours flying around about the job security of the head of the Austrian bureau of communication. It seems the illustrious leader often doesn't know where his forces are located, and as a result, orders are often not reaching the appropriate commanders. Russia's attempt to liberate Warsaw falls slightly short, for the time being at least... but perhaps the Turkish armies lurking to the south are there to help....... perhaps not. Lots brewing in the west, with some areas changing hands. Fun, fun fun! There has been a massacre in Brest, with the English army being destroyed, and there is one retreat for Russia... see below.

Here is the paper work:
