Autumn 951:
The Arab Caliphates have disbanded their army in Trebizond.
The French army in Hamburg had retreated to Hedeby.
(Donnie Darko moment)
Winter 951 is upon us. Time to rest.
While the days have given way to the nights in the North, troops are recovering from early signs of frostbite,
and have resorted to salted meat now that the animals have fled to warmer places or gone into hibernation.
Down South troops are exhausted from the heat of the summer and rains in the Fall.
And more to the East and West a chilling wind started blowing over seas and plains and keeps people huddled together.
The war that has plagued these lands have caused a shift in powers for some of them.
The Arab Caliphates and France have no disbands but no builds either.
Eastern Roman Empire, Norge and Slavic Nations raids have been so successful that they were able to acquire 3, 3 and 4 more supply centers respectively.
The Eastern Roman Empire gets a 3rd build for its conquest of Trebizond. The Arab Caliphates no longer needs to disband a unit as it disbanded its TRE army in Autumn.
