The first year ends, and though quite a few powers did not get a build, no one has to disband. Fall sees some shifting of position in the northern German states, with Austria moving south and consolidating it's armies, and France and Prussia filling the vacuum the Hapsburg army leaves behind. Perhaps the most significant development is Russia's apparent double cross of Prussia, with Russia taking Prussian support into Courland while also supporting Saxony against Prussia.
There is one retreat:
Prussian A Posen can retreat to Galicia or Breslau or Berlin or OTB.
There are quite a few adjustments. Build orders can be conditioned on the Prussian retreat.
Austria: Builds 1 unit. (Can build in Budapest, Vienna)
France: Builds 2 units. (Can build in Marseilles, Paris)
Prussia: Builds 1 unit or builds 2 units if Posen retreats OTB. (Can build in Berlin, Breslau)
Russia: Builds 1 unit. (Can build in Kiev, Moscow)
Spain: Builds 1 unit. (Can build in Barcelona, Madrid)
Turkey: Builds 1 unit. (Can build in Ankara, Constantinople)
The Winter deadline is this Thursday, May 19 at 22:00 GMT. Unlike movement phases, unless it is specifically requested that I wait until the deadline, I will adjudicate retreat/adjustment phases as soon as I have all the orders.

PRESS:
From Rome:
"The Holy See addressed the communion in the Church of St Peters. And in giving prayer, he spoke of the benevolence of peace in a continent divided by war, the need to spurn and defeat unbelievers by force if necessary, and the almighty God and His support of the Hapsburg crown, the most righteous and devote amongst all Europe."
