There's plenty of action to summarize this turn, particularly on the eastern front.

Both Italy and Russia pick off Austrian home centers, while Austria sails into Venice. Turkey gains the Ionian Sea and self-bounces in Austrian-controlled Serbia. Russia and Turkey once again battle to a standstill in the Black Sea. Germany moves eastward out of Berlin.

Meanwhile, in the west, English fleets steam toward French waters, and a French attack on Belgium is thwarted due to German support for the English army. However, England and Germany find themselves in a standoff battle in Scandinavia, as a Russian fleet makes its approach. Germany's fleet takes control of previously neutral Sweden.

A total of three units are dislodged, but only one will live to see another day:
The Austrian army in Budapest has no valid retreats and is destroyed. The Austrian army in Vienna has no valid retreats and is destroyed.
The Italian army in Venice may retreat to Apulia, Piedmont, Rome, Tuscany, Tyrolia, or OTB.


Marc, since your army has so many retreat options, I will leave it up to you to decide in the autumn retreat phase.

Winter adjustments will be due as follows:
Germany: build 1
Russia: build 1

Although Archduke Laurence controls 3 centers, Austria does not have an open home center in which to build, so that build will be banked.

Both the autumn 1902 retreat and the winter 1902 builds will be due at the same time. The deadline is tomorrow, Friday 1/22 at 3pm Central (US) / 21:00 GMT. Because there is an autumn retreat due, contingent adjustment orders may be submitted.

Thanks, everyone!
