"If you throw everyone else to the wolves first you only succeed in being the last eaten."

What a maroon.

Heya folks,

After my rant this morning, the Japanese orders came right in. (Actually, I think they were in the email lines as I was in mid-rant...) There is ebbing and flowing on the map, and four retreats required as a result of the Spring moves. Austria, Brazil and China need to send in some unit relocations - we'll set the Summer 1872 deadline for Tuesday, Apr 29th (11:59 PM GMT.)

Please let me know if you spot any errors in the adjudication. Below is the RealPolitik adjudication, my hand-adjudicated version will be out momentarily. Cheers!
