Welcome back! We seem to be back on track and finally have results from our Spring 1940 orders.
France is back in the game, and looks like he will be able to pickup some of the supply centers that he didn't get earlier by taking Sardinia. Spain seems to be dominating the South Western portions of the board. England was able to claim - and hold on to - La Manche (English Channel), which is not always easy. In the Mediterranean, England is in danger from Italy, Balkans and Turkey in Egypt. Spain, Italy, Balkans and Turkey each have strong positions there as well. Central Europe has also seen another round of Supply Center grabs with Balkans looking at two new ones. USSR bumped with Balkans in Rumania and with England in the Norwegian Sea, but otherwise seems to be fairly quiet.
There was one retreat needed: Italy was dislodged from Sardinia. The one option available for retreat, so that retreat was entered automatically. We are moving on to Fall 1940
Fall 1940 orders are due on Monday, Oct 14 at 8:30 pm MDT (02:30 10-15-13 GMT) This is a pseudo holiday in the USA. If anyone has a problem with a Monday deadline this week, please let me know ASAP.
Just a note... There are some new names on this map, and some are spelled differently (local language spelling). Please be careful when writing orders to include the correct name as per the map. I included all the territory names on an early email when we started the game. While this isn't required, it will help me be sure I have your orders correct. Thanks.
