Hi guys,
perhaps there some hidden treasures just east of the map's edge? For numerous powers are heading in that direction, perhaps most notably Germany, Italy, Poland and Turkey.
Next to the East, convoys also appear to be en vogue as we're now witnessing three such operations.
BTW, I'm happy to say that Robert Stein's about to run a 1648 game. Very much looking forward to having that variant GMed by someone other than me as well as seeing the latest variant tweaks (v3.3) in action. Should you wish to participate in that game, get in touch with Robert or sign up directly once the game's advertised on the DC site.
Since there are no pending retreats, we'll skip summer and move on to Fall 1938. Prelims are due on Monday NLT 6 PM CET.
Happy dipping,
Charles
