*Six Centers Change Hands!*
*Fortunes Rise and Fall!*
*Naval Battles rage in the North!*

Hey all,

     So officially Germany and Russia have lost all their original home centers. Yet they ironically each own two of each others centers. Still, until they reclaim one of their originals, they will be unable to build. In other news, Turkey took a hit this turn, losing Rumania and Greece. England and France struggle mightily to defend their own centers and gain the others, but with little overall change on the board.
     We have two retreats this turn. Once again, while retreats and builds/disbands are both due tomorrow at 8:00 AM CST, the retreats do happen first, so you can send in conditional builds accordingly. Italian F Eas can retreat to Syr or OTB. Turkish A Rum can go to Ukr, Sev, or OTB. Builds are as follows:

Austria: +1
England: -1
France: +1
Italy: +1 (or +2 if Eas retreats OTB)
Turkey: -2 (or -1 if Rum retreats OTB)

See you all here tomorrow! Oh, and fair warning, I will be out of town this weekend (Fri-Sat), so I will not email much during this time. I will do the builds, but that's about it. I'll be back sunday, so if you have any pressing questions wait till then, or you can email a Blitz Moderator (Mike sims or Garry Bledsoe). But since no deadlines fall in that timeframe, I don't see an issue.

Thanks all!
John
