We had some interesting results this season! Once again, thank you to everyone for getting your orders in on time. That is very helpful.

Under attack from Russia, England got some assistance from Germany to stay in Norway. France moved in unchallenged to the Iberian Peninsula to claim Portugal. Italy was able to push back the Austrians from Trieste while Turkey claimed Greece as theirs. Austria did however manage to disband the Russian occupiers in Budapest, holding that territory for now.

France: Builds 1 unit.
Germany: Builds 1 unit.
Turkey: Builds 1 unit.

Winter build orders are due on Wednesday, February 11 at 8:30 pm MST (03:30 12-2-15 GMT)

PRESS
----------------------------------
Press from E to R
Tsar, concerned as I am to guarantee my energy supplies, I have to tell you that it is the Kaiser that is standing in the way of our plans. I beseech you to join me in pushing back the German forces so that our pipeline can finaly be built. I fear France is too close to the German to be useful to us but that must not stop us in joining our economies, and I hope our militarys, together.
----------------------------------
Italy to Germany: I'll 'naughty-step' you in a minute, you lusty rotter! 'Speshly if you don't quit attacking my Russian friend!
----------------------------------
Mr Floppy to Squidgy: I told ya already, that was the Snickers bar that Uncle Norman threw at my noggin!
----------------------------------
To Russia,
Sorry about that, I didn't actually write those, even though I agree and think that you should leave Austria alone. My decision to take sweden was not related. I'm still open for working together, what were you thinking?
Officially from Germany
----------------------------------
Hiya,

It's Real Germany here again! Ooh 'Official' Germany you are a naughty boy arent you! Didn't your mommy tell you it is rude to pretend to be other people??? And what's all this 'naughty list' shit? If you're going to impersonate me then get it right, or you'll be on the naughty step too!

That nice French boy looks like he's trying to make friends with me too. Ooh you are a one, Monsieur le President! I see great things for us ahead...

And Austria - you are wearing my patience with that 'Strangely Brown' shit. I don't care if Italy has 'sharted in your pool' (what is 'sharted' anyway?) there is no need for language like that, you naughty boy!

Big Bad Wolf to Little Piggy: "Let me in, Little Piggy! Let me in!!!"

Siegfried Sassoon to board:

'Good-morning; good-morning!' the General said
When we met him last week on our way to the line.
Now the soldiers he smiled at are most of 'em dead,
And we're cursing his staff for incompetent swine.
'He's a cheery old card,' grunted Harry to Jack
As they slogged up to Arras with rifle and pack.

But he did for them both by his plan of attack.
