PREV Fall 1914 Adjudication: NEXT

Historical note: we have now reached Fall 1914. On July 28, 1914, Austria-Hungary declared war against Serbia, thus officially beginning the First World War. By Winter 1914 (our upcoming season), the war was in full swing, and the lives of otherwise decent men ended before they had a chance to develop into full manhood. Now, back to DC 373...

"Cassius from bondage will deliver Cassius.
Therein, you gods, you make the weak most strong;
Therein, you gods, you tyrants do defeat.
Nor stony tower, nor walls of beaten brass,
Nor airless dungeon, nor strong links of iron,
Can be retentive to the strength of spirit;
But life, being weary of these worldly bars,
Never lacks power to dismiss itself.
If I know this, know all the world besides,
That part of tyranny I do bear
I can shake off at pleasure."

"He that cuts off twenty years of life
Cuts off so many years of fearing death"

In total acquiescence, the Russian Bear lies down to sleep. Perhaps he has sipped of the wisdom of Cassius. Sometimes, it is better this way. Mr. Osellame, please inform me if youâ€™d like to be removed from the email list; otherwise, you can expect to receive updates of the gameâ€™s progress.

Elsewhere, there are the usual shifts in the center (Munich to Silesia; Warsaw to Galicia to Ukraine to Moscow). France reclaims his loan of Rome to the Austrians... the Austrians disband. So, we advance straight to Winter 1914. Do not pass Retreats. Do not collect $200.

Due to the Austrian/English seizures of Russian centers plus the Austrian disband, we have the following:

Austria: Supp 12 Unit 10 Build 2
England: Supp 13 Unit 12 Build 1
France: Supp 7 Unit 7 Build 0
Germany: Supp 2 Unit 2 Build 0
Russia: Supp 0 Unit 1 Remove 1

The Russian disband is automatic. Dirk and Jack, you owe me orders by 14:00 CST tomorrow.
