And the race for control of the Great White North has officially begun!
Conflict is avoided for the most part, as only a single bounce takes
place between Canada and the USA in Yukon. As might be expected, Norway
is the first power to venture out onto the ice; his army takes advantage
of the frozen sea to march to Franz Joseph Land. What is somewhat less
expected is that no one has elected to join him on the ice! However,
with the winter freeze upcoming, I suspect that this situation will not
last for long.

Let me remind you that from now on you will need to keep in mind which
territories will be freezing/melting when you look at the map to plan
your moves; the adjudication is on the fall map because it is for the
fall, but your next set of moves will be for the winter, so moves that
look legal on the fall map may not be! That said, I will do my best to
warn you if you have submitted and illegal order. I have also listed
below the adjudication the territories that will be freezing during the
next season, and I will continue to do this throughout the game.

There are no retreats (none were even possible), so we move directly to
the Winter 2010 movement season, which will be due this coming Monday,
July 27, at 9 pm eastern. Prelims are always encouraged!
