The old bees die, the young possess their hive.


But of course, the old bees sometimes tell the young to buzz off.... *really bad joke grin*


France and the Holy Roman Empire trade blows in the west while Sweden sticks a spoke into Russia's wheel in the East. Meanwhile, the beleagured Poles continue to find themselves under siege.


Four retreats are required after the Spring moves - one each from the French, the Spanish, the Poles and the Russians. Deadline for Summer 1602 will be set for Thursday, May 1st (11:59 PM GMT).


Just let me know if you spot any goofs on my part. Cheers!
