GM’s remarks:
 
Ok, I’ve been asked by a couple of people to not get so worked up about the deadline.  So, I guess the deadlines are no longer mandatory.  If you would like to get your order in by the deadline I set below . . . I will consider if I am interested in providing an adjudication at that time.
 
I have performed England’s retreats automatically due to the situation that becomes obvious below.
 
I did not receive orders from France; however, my records show this is his first NMR.  Michael if you are still with us, please drop me a line otherwise France falls into Civil Disorder (CD) for the remainder of the game.
