Juten Abend!
To date, outright conflict tended to revolve round the naval sphere. That no longer seems to be the case given the new conflict that has arisen between the Emperor and the Most Christian King (and who now may be also a most unhappy king). Going west appears to be all the rage right. Now, the Polish king is following the example set by Austria, Sweden, Turkey and - for a time - Denmark.
At this stage, I ought to inform you that I shall be on holiday for 2-3 weeks in August. Cycling in Sco, Bri, Yor, Lon with perhaps some Fla or UPr thrown in for good measure. :) Naturally I wouldn't want the game to suffer on that count and hope to find a kind soul who's willing to adjucate a season or two. If any of our observers feel the itch of knowing what's going on behind the scenes with those DPs... I might also mention that any substitute GM would get his power preference in the next game I run he wishes to join. It's really very easy to adjucate with Realpolitik doing the heavy lifting. Hm, what else can I say to sweeten the deal? :)
Now, our Summer Retreats are limited to A Lorraine. As soon as I get Nathan's order, I shall publish the Summer Retreats adjucation (unless he expressly asks me to wait until the deadline). The below map still shows some disbanded neutrals simply because Realpolitik doesn't know they're unable to ever retreat.
Thankyou for the considerable feedback I got on the various changes I listed in the previous adjucation. I am always interested in hearing your thoughts on such matters and appreciate a hard look at my choices.
Liebe Grüsse,
Charles
