Another year gone by, and what a year!
Russia retakes then loses St Petes, Turkey is finally pushed out of a Home SC after a valiant defense, Germany retakes Munich thanks to an unexpected hold in Tyrolia, France manages to gain an SC after looking like she was giving up the ghost, and England breaks a fleet past the straits of Gibraltar.

We have 2 retreats due, Italy in Munich and Russia in St Petes. Italy can only retreat to Silesia or OTB, Russia can fall back to Moscow or Finland, or OTB
Please have your orders in by Wednesday, July 23rd so we can get the Builds in by the end of the week.

Berlin Non-Democrat Gazette: True to his word, the new Chancellor has not built random fleets to go fishing through the Baltic Sea. However, it has not escaped the notice of this reporter that the new Chancellor has not stopped the fishing expeditions of our German fleets. No doubt his comments about fresh fish should have served notice to his constituency - he obviously thinks that German people are too obese. One bier garden owner had this to say: "Clearly our new Chancellor is doing his best to put me out of business. All of this fish has a lot of Germans now eating healthy. Worse, I have seen joggers! He is killing the economy; at the rate he is going I will have to open a salad bar soon. Doesn't he realize that fighting, not fishing, is healthy."
