This means that A Ruh-Mun fails and A Mun-Ber fails. This does not effect winter results especially because the winter results seem to have taken this into account by not giving a retreat for the German unit. Germany ------- +A Edi Holds +A Ruh -> Mun -A Mun -> Ber (Must retreat) -F Bal -> Ber -A Boh -> Gal +A War -> Mos +A Bel -> Nwy +F NtS C A Bel -> Nwy +F Nwy -> Bar -F ECh -> Bre Whoops! A MAR does not have to retreat, it was a 2 to 2 standoff. I knew I would goof if I didn't use a computer program to resolve the results. Oh well. NOTE: The Editor was not able to decypher the meaning of this mistake well enough to correct it.

The German and English rulers have decreed that there will be no further threats to world peace from the fanatical despot. As the news filtered across the German occupied Channel, the French Navy was quick to respond to the horrible news and promptly went a-wenching in old London Town. There are reports that captains are selling their ships to the British, but these are of course unconfirmed at this time. o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o VIOLENT PEACE - Fall 1902 o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o At last!
