Grüß Gott!
It's been a rough fall for the Président as news of one defeat piled upon another. The very opposite is true for Kemal and Pilsudski, who both scored handsome gains. As for the Reds, their power base has now entirely shifted to Scandinavia as they received massive aid from MacDonald's Labour government.
Winter Retreats/Adjustments orders are due no later than 15 December 6 PM CET. Thereafter, I've scheduled a two-week break, with preliminary orders being due for Spring 1928 on 29 December.
Liebe Grüsse,
Charles
