Fellow leaders of the known world,

And just like that we have war! Or a lot of movement around the board anyway. Lots of positioning, but otherwise short on audacity (or maybe not...) certainly no bounces and no retreats, so we'll go directly to the Fall turn.

I have only attached the final position docs this time as the moves are pretty self-evident. You'll normally get a "moves" map too.

Since everyone had their orders in early (thanks!!), let's go ahead and have your orders to me by next Tuesday, Feb 3. If you have a conflict, let me know ASAP.

One admin note: please include the type of unit with your orders, ie, army "a" or, fleet "f". If you spot a mistake, please let me know right away.
