Grüß Gott!
Sadly I did not receive any Swedish build orders on time. As previously indicated, my policy in this game is to disregard ANY orders submitted after the set deadline.

Now, as you know, I shall replace any player who misses a moves deadline, put the game then on hold and have a replacement player submit an order set for that season, next to allowing for sufficient extra negotiation time, of course. This is one reason why I require you players to submit preliminary orders at least 48 hours in advance of the final deadline.

But as I outline in my house rules, the same player replacement procedure does not apply to one failing to submit retreats and adjustments. Of course, failing to submit retreats/adjustment orders in time can be easily averted by immediately responding to the release of the prior adjucation with a set of orders. Sigh.

While on the subject of my GMing policies, I might again point out that I do correct any orders mistakes I deem entirely unambiguous. I wouldn't want say insufficient map knowledge (space names etc) unduly marr the game. That being said, I strongly recommend you study the names of the respective spaces and check whenever vaguely in doubt of a space's name.

Preliminary orders are due on 16 November, 6 PM CET (Central European Time, i.e. GMT+1).



Liebe Grüsse,

Charles
