Looking at the map, it seems like most of the action takes place in the Balkans.  Both Austria and Turkey make progress, albeit progress with a loss.  Which, if either, power benefits the most from this swap remains to be seen.  Russia, looking to regain some of his lost territory, attacks the only center which is occupied.  Neither of the other two was even protected.  In the west, both France and Germany play for positioning and the fight to come.  France was offered Ruhr but did not take it, while Germany may now have a position of strength on Edinburgh, despite still lacking Munich.  One unit was dislodged, but as the A Serbia had but one valid retreat, it was automatically ordered. 


I feel better about the pace of this game after a slow beginning, and let's keep it rolling!  Remember that preliminary orders make both you and me happier, not least because they give me the ability to check for seriously-misordered units, but I think none of you have encountered that problem so far.
