Spring 1905 sees an exchange of centres in the north west with russia taking Sweden off Germany, who in turn receives English support into Holland, with the French loss of Holland compensated by the taking of Berlin.
Elsewhere Italy NMRs (his first) and Turkey takes advantage by forcing his way into Ionian.
The attached .dpy file contains an error...it appears that Realpolitick, when faced with a retreat from a player who has just NMRed, automatically disbands the force concerned. This is specifically against my house rules, which state that a player NMRing has an opportunity to specify any retreats. I'll have to do this via a manual adjustment on Realpolitick - so the attached map and .dpy file is missing the retreating Italian fleet in the Ionian Sea.
I'll need that retreat by 2100GMT tomorrow 27th April, else the fleet will be disbanded. Fall 1905 moves will be due Friday 30th April at 2100GMT
