Lots of action plus some notable bounces to summarize this season.

England gains MAO unopposed, as France sails off to NAO. Germany's attempt to cross the Maginot line is stymied by stiff French resistance (I know I'm one war too early, but it's the right spot!). Russia foils England's attack on St. Petersburg, as well as Germany's attempt to move into Prussia. Yet again, Russia and Turkey bounce in the Black Sea. Turkey sails westward to Tyrrhenian Sea.

The most notable action takes place around Austria, where Russia pushes Italy out of Vienna, and Turkey marches unopposed into Serbia. Meanwhile, the Austrian and Italian fleets bounce each other in Apulia.

There is one summer 1903 retreat due, as the Italian army in Vienna has been dislodged. Marc, since this unit has only one valid retreat option, I'll take the liberty of assuming that it will retreat to Bohemia, to keep the game moving. If you would prefer to retreat OTB instead, please let me know before the normal Tuesday 3pm Central (US) / 21:00 GMT summer retreat deadline, and I will update the game status.

Fall 1903 orders will be due Thursday 1/28 at 3pm Central (US) / 21:00 GMT. Thanks!
