Hallo zusammen,

I'll leave the reading of the tea-leaves to you. Suffice to say Europe's not going to run out of conflicts anytime soon...

Preliminary Fall Orders are now due no later than Tuesday, 6 PM CET.

Yet of course, Harvey will have to submit his retreat orders first, that deadline coming up on Saturday. Unless Harvey signals that I may adjucate prior to the set deadline, expect that retreat adjucation sometime on Sunday.xm

Liebe Grüsse,

Charles
