Hallo zusammen!
while France, Germany and Turkey have surged ahead, garnering three builds each, the first year must have proved disappointing to the continent's totalitarian dictators, Mussolini and Stalin. Britain and Poland clocked in at two builds each.
It's certainly also been a bad year for the lesser members in the League of Nations. The sovereignty of thirteen League members was violated by those powers carrying a bigger stick. Sniff, I'm going to miss my custom-made unit icons for many neutrals... Anyway, clearly the "Paris Peace Settlement" has been entirely unmade. And it looks like all arms control conventions are also a dead-letter given the rumours of massive rearmaments programmes.
Remember that adjustment orders may be conditioned on any retreat orders. I adjucate both in one go, but this is the way to take account of what retreats occur. Should Jack and Mikael choose to disband their respective units, they will of course be able to build.
Winter orders are due no later than 5 December 6 PM CET.
Liebe GrĂ¼sse,
Charles
