PREV Fall 1905 Adjudication: NEXT

Lots of turnover in center control this season all over the map.

England gains control of Denmark and also holds on to Sweden after a 3-way bounce. Germany attempts to take Belgium, but the French defenders hold their ground. England overcomes French defense and sails into Brest, while French defenders stymie the Turkish-supported Russian attack on Marseilles. Turkey guesses correctly (or Italy guesses incorrectly) and sails unopposed into Rome. Italy attempts to support Austria's move to Budapest that would leave Italy in control of Vienna, but Turkey crashes the party by moving from Rumania to Galicia with Russian support, leaving Russia in control of Rumania.

There is one autumn retreat due from Italy. Marc, I won't issue a default order because you have multiple retreat options:
The Italian army in Galicia may retreat to Bohemia, Silesia, or OTB.

Winter adjustments will be due as follows:
Austria: build 1
England: build 2
France: remove 1
Germany: remove 1
Italy: remove 2 (or remove 1 if retreat OTB)
Turkey: build 1

Both the autumn retreat and winter adjustments will be due tomorrow, Friday 2/12 at 3pm Central (US) / 21:00 GMT. You may submit conditional adjustment orders based on the Italian retreat.

It is very likely that I will be away for both this turn and the spring 1906 moves on Monday, as both of these days are state holidays. Normally, I would be stuck at work during these holidays attempting to balance the state's budget, but our Governor signed a bill today that delays the budget's due date. No offense to the Diplomacy community, but I plan not to be at my work computer so I can enjoy these days off that I rarely get to see. Garry or Mike will take care of business in my absence - PLEASE be sure to cc: the Orders box. Thanks!

Press from Turkey:

A Brave New World
(a lyrical message from the Sultan, inspired by the artistry of our English friend)

1905 proved quite a year
Across our land so fair.
Word was spread 'bout deceit afoot
Against our Sultan dear.

Pressed to learn, our spies did find
A proverbial murderer's row.
FGI all lead the way!
With A and R in tow.

What must a Turkish chap then do,
Faced with impure threats?
Ally with gentle Lion of course,
To push and claw and scratch.

The spring now past and strength aligned,
What should new friends now do?
Welcome even more of course!
Come Russia, and Austria too.

The first step in the fall is just,
Precursor of things to come.
As the New Alliance sharpens knives,
To carve up Europe whole.
