- DUTCH FLEETS ENGAGE IN AN IONIAN MISSION

Heya folks,


I put this adjudication off a little in attempts to get my old personal laptop up and running. No dice, unfortunately, and with my work laptop temporarily unavailable I unfortunately will have to send out the Fall map and .dpy file at the beginning of the week.


However, I have gone through the orders and run the adjudication. Definitely some interesting fleet developments at all corners of the board, as the Dutch bludgeon their way into the Ionian Sea and the United States Navy secures an Antarctic Sea Zone - being the first other than the Dutch to sail along the southern ice shelves in quite a few years.


Two retreats are required - one from the Dutch and one from the French. We'll set the deadline for those retreats for Tuesday, October 7th (11:59 PM GMT). I will attempt to get the game-map out as soon as possible.


Cheers everyone. Please review the adjudication and just let me know if I've made a mistake.
