France returns to the fray, but now Germany NMRs. The England/Russia alliance pushes Germany out of Sweden, as France sails towards the British Isles. The Italy/Russia alliance rolls over the isolated Turkish defender in Bulgaria, and Italian forces begin moving westward.
A total of 3 units are dislodged, but only 2 of them will survive the turn:
The German army in Burgundy may retreat to Marseilles, Paris, or OTB.
The German fleet in Sweden may retreat to Finland, Gulf of Bothnia, or OTB.
The Turkish army in Bulgaria has no valid retreats and is destroyed.
Scott, since both of your retreating units have multiple options, we'll have a Summer 1905 retreat phase - your retreat orders are due tomorrow, Tuesday 4/27 at 3pm Central (US) / 21:00 GMT. Thanks!

PRESS
After quelling a long and violent labor strike, France's armed forces are once again ready for international action.
(GM note: the real-life Russia had a major uprising in 1905, so this is not a far-fetched idea.)
