Headlines from around the Continent:
BUDAPEST ??? Violent crowds have seized the royal palace and declared a Hungarian Republic, causing a civil war in the capital city between the people and the army. ??The main cause for the revolution appears to be the complete absence of leadership but the effect is that Hungarians are shooting upon each other whilst Sicilian and Polish forces advance unhindered upon the capital city. ??
POOLE, WESSEX ??? The Spanish fleet defending their conquered territory in Britain departed port bound for the Atlantic Ocean, further signifying the major shift in alliances following the collapse of Poland's prime ally. ??The absence of fleets in the North Sea and cooperative operations between Polish and Burgundian ground forces headed for northern Italy may give Sicilian generals some headaches in years to come.
CONSTAN??A, RUMANIA ??? The Polish garrison in this port city was surprised and rapidly overtaken by the amphibious assault by Israelite forces from Georgia, supported by naval bombardment from the Sicilian fleet in Varna, Bulgaria. ??The action solidifies the status of the Black Sea as an Israelite lake, despite the continued operations of Byzantine naval forces in support of said Israelites. ??The Polish forces were forced to retreat into the mountains of Transylvania.??
PALERMO ??? Crowds cheered the Israelite navy steaming towards the western Mediterranean, as the alliance between Sicily and Israel, which to many appeared impossible, continues to project power with strength and efficiency. ??Whether the pact may have the strength to take on the new Polish-Spanish alliance, remains to be seen. ??
Three units dislodged; one disbanded and two auto-retreated.
