- HOLLAND RIPS INTO RUSSIAN SOUTH YELLING BAK-U!- US FORCES MEET SOMETHING UNSEEN FOR A WHILE - FIERCE RESISTENCE
- JAPANESE NAVY STICKS SOY INTO CHINESE EYES
- BRITAIN TO FRANCE - MEH! WE DON'T REALLY WANT THAT DANISH ANYWAYS..


The game flavour continues - the big get bigger and, with the exception of Japan, the struggling continue to struggle. Five retreats are required after the Fall onslaught - three Russian, one Chinese and one Austrian.


Deadline for Early Winter 1872 retreats will be set for Thursday, May 8th (11:59 PM GMT). As always, please triple-check me for errors.


Cheers!
