The Central Powers take a combined four centers from Russia and Turkey this turn, but there is still time for both powers to recover and find a way out of the mess.  Although, it's significantly more likely for Russia than for Turkey, especially if we don't find someone willing to step in the way of a proverbial train.  Meanwhile, France faces the moment of truth:  will the spinning top fall, or will the dream continue?

Three units were dislodged.  As no move was received for Turkey, I'll disband the Serbian army.  I need two retreats from Russia.  Summer deadline is 08:00 GMT, 13 January; I'll adjudicate when I receive the orders-or Bert can simply e-mail the group and I'll follow up with a map later.
