What kinda civil disorder crap was THAT Brazil ???!!!
Take a page out of Russias book...he's puttin up one helluva fight.

Thats just deplorable ... Imelda Marcos would even be ashamed.

If thats all your doing you should resign and at least let Brazil go out with some dignity.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Definitely a board in movement, as we had some stand-downs and some stand-ups all across the board. Things continue to tumble to and fro in Asia, the Japanese continue their revision of their front line position and France strikes into the Ionian.

Three retreats are required after the Spring turn - two from Austria and one from Brazil. Needing new homes are the army in Dar Es Salaam, the fleet in the Ionian and the Brazilian navy in Recife. Deadline for Summer 1870 will be set for Friday, March 14th (11:59 PM GMT).

Please just let me know if you folks spot any errors. Cheers!
