Utterly fascinating. After the last adjudication I would have wagered good money that the invasion of Russia was at hand. Instead, it's the exact opposite. We have some more Press this turn, first from Switzerland, second from Russia. Italy NMRs for the second consecutive season and goes into Civil Disorder. I will post a notice on the DC forums advertising the position, but for the Fall 1902 turn, Italian units and supply centers are impassable unless I find a replacement soon.
The Turkish army in Bulgaria is dislodged and has no valid retreat. It is disbanded and we proceed past Summer 1902 and on to Fall 1902. The deadline is 9:00pm CST on 16th June, which is 02:00 GMT on 17th June.
Zürcher Zeitung: My dear Prime Minister, our Norwegians are loyal of course, why do you ask?
Pravda: Do not listen to the vile Sultan's propaganda. Anyone who has communicated with me, the Tsar, knows that I am more than diplomatic in my conduct with other leaders of the world. Bullying and coercing have never been part of the Russian agenda. Unfortunately, from the start of our negotiations it was clear that the Sultan could not be reasoned with. He is unstable, fickle and prone to irrational decisions. Any who trust him now: be careful! His words of friendship will be revealed as the deceit that they are soon enough. Russia deeply regrets this turn of events. But we will do whatever it takes to protect our glorious homeland. And in this case, that will mean the end of the Turkish oppressors, once and for all!
