OK, so it seems I have some explaining to do here. Sending in your orders for retreats is just as important as spring or fall. I don't know if I haven't been clear in saying that I need people with retreats to submit them, but without that I have to assume a disband. It's right there in the house rules. Please, if you have a retreat, take the half-minute it requires to send me your wishes.

That being said, here are the retreats from this season:

Austria:
A Budapest - Trieste

Germany:
A Holland - Ruhr

Italy:
A Munich - Silesia

So that takes us into a winter phase where some of you will be building and others will need to disband. Here are the statistics:

Austria: 3 sc's - 5 units = 2 disbands
England: 6 sc's - 4 units = 2 builds
France: 5 sc's - 5 units = even
Germany: 3 sc's - 4 units = 1 disband
Italy: 4 sc's - 4 units = even
Russia: 8 sc's - 6 units = 2 builds
Turkey: 5 sc's - 4 units = 1 build

I already have some of your winter adjustments in, which I like a lot. As usual, I will give you two days to submit your adjustments, so they will be due on Saturday, Sept 5, noon CDT. It does not take much time to figure out your builds, so I hope to see them rolling in today and tomorrow. After that we can get to the more enjoyable spring season.

ps. Since all the retreats were taken, no new map is needed. Use the same one you got from me before.
