Now we have a challenge to the ruling (legitimate) and a clarification I owe -
First - clarification - the retreat is *from* Atsumi Bay, either to Owari or OTB. My apologies - got a lot going on here today at training still.../
Second - the challenge to the ruling is that the NMR results in an automatic disband of both units. My understanding is that this is a quirk of Realpolitik, not the actual game rules. I will allow 24 hours for evidence (i.e. a citation in the rulebook) to be presented - if my ruling is incorrect, it will be reversed. Otherwise, gameplay continues, and the two retreats are due tomorrow evening.
Very pleased to see this level of attention to detail, speaks highly of the caliber of our players, a most welcome sight. More to folllow when we have a ruling on the retreat - until then, proceed as posted before!

I have been informed (correctly) that Michael should have a retreat
available - to Atsumi Bay - I will allow an extra 24 hours for him to
submit that - 1700 tomorrow for all retreats then...
