PREV Winter 1905 Adjudication: NEXT

Always a good thing to be writing about "Winter" when sitting in a warm, sunny spot like Singapore...

Early reports were correct. The Russian fleet escaping the fall of Sevastopol was too badly damaged to continue the fight. With no friendly ports of refuge along the bleak coast of the Black Sea, and no hope of breaking into the Eastern Mediterranean, its captain decided to scuttle the once mighty battleship rather than to see it in the hands of the enemy. Film at 11.

But even while the crew of the doomed Russian fleet was being "rescued" by Austrian authorities, diplomats in capitals across Europe were working furiously to bring a close to the war, now entering its 6th year. Out of this marathon effort comes a proposed two-way, England-Austria draw which now needs to be voted upon.

For those of you uncertain what this entails, if approved, the game would end in a draw with England and Austria declared duel winners while France and Russia would "survive." The proposed draw requires "yes" votes from ALL players to be successful. One "no" vote kills the proposal and the game continues. Votes, like orders, are ALWAYS confidential. I will ask that you provide me with your vote along with your Spring, 1906 orders, which will be due on Monday, December 15 at 2359 GMT.

You can, however, vote early (not often, however), and I highly recommend it. As soon as I have four "yes" votes or one "no" vote, I'll let you know immediately and the game will either end or continue with the Spring turn.

As always thanks for your early orders and good luck!

Bruce
