Good afternoon my Diplomats,

This season sees the demise of the Turkish Turtle, all while multiple countries strike at Germany with success, partly due to the fact that the German leadership seems to have disappeared. 


The German Fleet in Denmark has several retreat options available:
Helgoland Bight, North Sea, Baltic Sea or OTB


The Turkish army in Smyrna also has several retreat options available:
Syria, Armenia or OTB, although this has more of a theoretical value, since coming this winter there are no more Turkish centers, and the unit will have to disband.


Come this winter we will see the following changes occur:
Austria: Build  2
England: Build  2
France: - 
Germany: Remove  2 (or 1 if the Fleet retreats OTB)
Italy: - 
Russia: -
Turkey: Eliminated.


We thank Dan for trying out his Turtle. I know that he was disappointed with the start of the game, but he did keep in the game up until the bitter end. Thank you, and good luck in your other games at DC.



Any mistakes that I've made should be brought to my attention as soon as possible. Please let me know if you plan on being away or if you want an extended deadline.




Next turn: Autumn 1903 Retreats (Only Jeffrey/Germany)
Next Deadline: Thursday, 3rd of December, 19:00 GMT (7PM).
I will announce the results as soon as I've received them.


You can send in preliminaries for the winter builds/disbands starting now. Make them conditional if you want to.
