Dear Russian troops:
You're marching the wrong way! Don't you see? Your country
would send you off to die, cut off from your home! Or, you're hear for our
world-famous beer? Then come on in! Just drop the guns. Drop
the guns. DROP THE GU-

Russia "retreats" two units toward German centers, while Austria falls
back to Vienna. Italy and Germany each raise an army. France
abandons his last center, and Austria scuttles his lone fleet.
Spring 1905 orders will be due Monday 2/20 at 3pm Central (US) / 21:00
GMT. Thanks!

"It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that
really mattered. Full of darkness and danger they were. and sometimes you didn't
want to know the end because how could the end be happy? How could the world go
back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only
a passing thing. The shadow, even the darkness must pass. A new day will come.
And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories
that stayed with you - That meant something. Even if you were too small to
understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in
those stories had lots of chances of turning back only they didn't. They kept
going because they were holding onto something."
"What are we holding onto,
Sam?"
"That there's some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it's worth
fighting for."
