Fall 952:
Again fires at the horizon: this time it is the beautiful city of Beograd. Slavs set it ablaze before the advancing Romans could take anything of value. What a sad ending for this city in the heart of Balkans. The fire will have consumed the whole city by the end of Autumn.
The Arab Caliphates tried to hold on to their assets in Palermo and Tarsus against the onslaught from the Romans but had to give in in the end. Rumors have been heard about a genocide!
France has been under fire from the Burgundese all throughout the French empire. Verdun, Champagne, Tours, Paris, Auvergne and Koln never saw so much fighting in their history as this Fall. Some have spotted the occasional Dane in Paris. Odd place to get lost, won't you say?
The Swedes seem to be confused: their fleet in Birka was told to move to the Baltic Sea but Swedish Headquarters forgot to inform the army in Goteborg who found the place empty when their support arrived. And the Ruthenian army is supporting the Slavs from Przemysl to Breslau but the Slavs are supporting their cousins in neighboring Kjonugard.
Danmark is not very lucky either: its Fleet in Memel and its army in Jorvik have nowhere to retreat to and are slaughtered by respectively the Norse and the Swedes.

Retreats for Autumn 952 are listed below.
Deadline for retreats is Wednesday Aug 27 at 23:00 GMT.
