And we roll on to Fall 1903

England grabs Denmark to compensate for the loss of Norway...but can he hold on in the face of Russia's northern assault? Meanwhile, France and Italy seem to come to an arrangement, with France reducing her presence in the Med, and Italy vacating Munich to head for Bohemia. However, a French general is likely to face a court martial, as the French army vacates Kiel, leaving the remnants of the German cabinet still holding on to power...just.

In the East, a messy situation in the Balkans results in a stalemate, with a network of moves and support cancelling each other out. In contrast to the French general in Kiel, the Russian general in Armenia will be up for a commendation as he anticipates the Turkish army moving to Ankara, and sneaks into an undefended Smryna, putting Russia in a dominant position with 11 centres now under the Tsar's control.

With (amazingly) no retreats needed, we move to Winter 1903. The only changes needed are from Russia (building a whopping 3) and Turkey (disbanding 2). Whilst Germany's technically due a build, due to him being in Civil Disorder, there'll be no troops appearing in Kiel...

To try and keep the game moving at a reasonable pace, the Winter 1903 deadline will be Wednesday 18th June at 2000 GMT. Should both Russia and Turkey confirm their adjustments before then, I'll adjudicate early.

As always, please feel free to point out mistakes...
