All,
As I suspected, Steven was just a bit late getting back in town. I got his retreat later last night. The retreats were:

A Bel-Bur
A Bud-Tri

So that leaves us with the following builds/disbands:

Autumn 1902 Adjustments:
A: Gre, Ser, Tri, -Bud, -Vie = 3; Loses 2.
E: +Bre, Bel, Nwy, Edi, Lon, Lpl = 6; Gains 1.
F: +Por, Spa, Mar, -Bre, -Par = 3; Loses 1.
G: Den, +Par, Hol, Ber, Kie, Mun = 6; Gains 1.
I: +Tun, +Vie, Rom, Ven, Nap = 5; Gains 2.
R: Sev, +Bud, +Rum, Mos, Swe, StP, War = 7; Gains 2.
T: Bul, Con, Ank, Smy = 4; No change.

Builds/Disbands:
A: Remove 2
E: Build 1
F: Remove 1
G: Build 1
I: Build 2
R: Build 2
T: None

I have already received many of the build orders. I just need disbands and the few remaining build orders. Let's please target Wednesday May 21st at 5pm CST for the remainder of these. NOTE: any build orders already submitted
CAN be altered up until that time if the player wishes based upon the retreats.

Thanks.

Subject: dc179 Blackmarch A02 Results: Retreats Needed Before Builds/Disbands [Map in Next Email]

France Holds [Intentionally] and Suffers.
Retreats Required.

Given some previous concerns with my automatic retreats last time, it is probably more prudent for me NOT to take that approach this time.
Two retreats are required from our turn and we will not have our build/disbands until those are ordered. I have still listed builds below for those who are curious.
RETREATS NEEDED ARE:

A Bud - can retreat to Tri or disband [OTB retreat]
A Bel - can retreat to Bur or Pic OR disband [OTB retreat]

Please note - the map still reflects both of these units [roughly] in their current placement PRE-RETREAT orders.

For retreats, let's have those as soon as possible. Deadline for those is 5pm CST Monday the 19th if possible. We would then target Tuesday or Wednesday for builds/disbands.

An additional administrative note: I am going to be on vacation next week and I am going to try to get a GM sub for the S03 round. If unable to get one, we will have a slightly longer
S03 round. I will advise this [hopefully] when I send out notification of what builds/disbands are required.

Hopefully this works for all.

Oh, one other note: the French moves are legitimate and not the result of an NMR.
