Retreat! Retreat! Run for your lives!
There are four retreats. Holy smokes, FOUR retreats! By four different nations. Three of the retreats require orders due tomorrow (Germany, you're off the hook).
English F Spain may retreat to Gulf of Lyon, Portugal, Western Mediterranean, or off the board.
French F English Channel may retreat to Brest, Irish Sea, Mid-Atlantic Ocean, Picardy, or off the board.
German A Kiel is retreating to Ruhr unless otherwise indicated.
Turkish F Tyrrhenian Sea may retreat to Gulf of Lyon, Rome, Western Mediterranean, or off the board.
Yes, there are some opportunities for bouncing/disbanding retreats.
Deadline is tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. CST.
The funny thing is that, in spite of all the retreats, the real story of the season is the easy advance of Russian and Turkish units. Plus, the EF bounce in Belgium.
