Hallo zusammen,
 
I'm afraid both Michael and Jimmy failed to meet
the regular deadline. This means that Michael has now used up both of his two
grace periods accorded to him for this game. Didn't get round to bugging players
about orders as on other occasions. Just try to remember: Saturdays we commonly
have our prelim deadline. Mondays our regular moves deadline. Wednesdays our
retreats and adjustments. We all don't any grief to befall this
game.
 
Now, what happened this season? In terms of conquests not all that much.
Britain descended on the port of Brest, while the Rzeczpospolita has extended
her influence into Norway. In the East, Turkey stalled both Polish and German
advances, though failed to achieve the same in regards to Italy.
 
BTW, have any of you guys watched the Eurovision Song Contest this weekend?
Well, I'm totally jazzed that Germany won with a classy act and that we'll
now be hosting the event after 28 years for the first time. Berlin 2011 is gonna
be about as big a party as the World Cup was here in 2006!
 
The Fall 1939 Moves are due NLT 6PM CET
on Monday, 7 June. Prelims 48 hours in advance
please. 
 
Liebe Grüsse,
 
Charles
