Alright, I admit to dropping the ball on that one, although in part I have the internet connection, or lack thereof, at my new apartment to blame.  France retreated to Toulouse, but Burgundy and England only find out about it now.  Seriously, if it happens again, don't be reluctant to poke me about it. 


Europe is apparently suffering from a sever fever, as winter is bypassed completely.  No one gets a build this year.  If we have two more such years of stalemate, I'll declare the game a DIAS by default. 


Much like a Monty Python sketch, Autumn gives Winter a miss and goes on to Spring.  Your orders are due 10 March.
