There are no retreats! But at least there are a few bounces: Black Sea, Burgundy, Galicia, Trieste/Venice... a healthy dose of inaction. I'm going to make a daring prediction: Portugal will not be the only unowned supply center after the Fall. In fact, I'll go so far as to venture that three, count 'em, three centers will be unowned going into 1902.
Below, you will find the orders as adjudicated. Because this is a tournament game, I will *not* publish moves as written (meaning that you cannot peruse your opponents' orders for mistakes or for zany commands like "A Budapest is *this close* to solving the fundamental problem of alchemy... but it got distracted by the latest Katy Perry video."
With this email, unless I've absent-mindedly forgotten, you should find a map of the S1901 adjudication (.gif), the current map (.gif), and a RealPolitik file (.dpy) for those of you adjudicating at home.
Fall 1901 orders are due Thursday at 10:00 a.m. CST!
