Hi gang,



It has been pointed out to me that I made an error in reading the orders. France did not order his fleet English Channel to support a move Belgium to Holland. He actually ordered (more logically) for Eng to support Belgium to hold. Since that support was cut anyhow, there is no change to the results.




Your humble GM,




Warren

Hi guys,



Okay, time for fall. A couple of important notes, please listen up. First, I happened to be on a plane when the deadline hit today and it was fortunate for more than one of you. I will always take orders up to the point that I start to adjudicate, but if I hadn't had to rush off to the airport just before the deadline today there would have been more than one nmr. Easy solution... send prelims... right now even     Second, PLEASE be careful with your abbreviations in your orders. There were several mis-orders this season, fortunately they didn't have a large effect on the game. Trieste and Tyrolia are important, and all those northern places that start with NOR.... I have no way to know which one you mean if you don't get the proper abbreviation. Uhh, there were a couple of sloppy orders made as well when making changes. That's not my problem of course, but be careful.




Alright, enough blabbing and on with the turn. A more cautious mood amongst the group I'd say.




We have one retreat, for France. French army Belgium can retreat to Picardy or Ruhr, or OTB. The deadline for that will be Monday, December 19 at 16:00 MST. If I get the retreat early I will be able to get the turn done early. I'm travelling and will have some evening hotel peace and quiet.
