Hallo zusammen,
okay, we're finally moving forward. Though given the holiday season, we shall continue to move on at a leisurely pace.
And yes - as you may have inferred from the first sentence - we are moving on since the submitted FPT three-way draw proposal failed.
Armies have been en vogue this winter, with both Warsaw and the Porte churning them out in record numbers, though of course neither monarch was able to build to his full potential owing to limited build sites. With both of these two "superpowers" having exceeded the victory criterion, will one of the two manage to edge past the other in the coming year?
The spring 1662 deadline is now scheduled for Wednesday, 11 August. Seemed to me the best solution given that Nigs will only have very restricted email access for the remainder of his holidays.
