Hi guys,
I apologise for only now publishing the winter results. Yesterday, Ascension Day, was a public holiday hereabouts. Enjoyed the Brandenburg countryside only to return today. Hence the delay.
Arguably the most noteworthy news this winter is Sweden's waiving of two builds. Is Queen Christina seeking greater flexibility going forwards or is she - absorbed by her chats with Descartes, no doubt - putting breaks on Swedish expansion...?
Sweden can celebrate a couple of new territorial acquisitions. Both Finnmark and Iceland were inherited from the Danish Crown. Based on being closest with the most units. That truly paints all of Scandinavia in Vasa blue!
The draw proposal failed, yet is once again put forward. So let's have your votes!
Cheers,
Charles
