INVASION OF MOTHERLAND IMMENENT! In an unprovoked attack, Turkish and Austrian troops invaded the principality of Rumania last week, forcing the regional govenor to relocate to Odessa. At the same time, Turkish troops began amassing along the Russian border, and Turkish fleets sortied into the Black Sea. The Czar was forced to return early from a skiing trip in the Urals to deal with the problem. He called the attack "attrocious" and called upon other world leaders to assist in putting down this evil alliance. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ::--> Black October, Summer 02.

Hostile action but no injuries. The italian and french manoevers got tangled up in the tyrrhenian, and so both nations had to call it quits, but the award goes to the turkish commanders who planned an detalied invasion...into a turkish territory. Meanwhile, british fleets sail into range of st. petersburg, and german fleets mass on the north sea. ------------------------------------ ::--> GM Notes Stupid Computers: I would complain about the downtime we have had recently, but since keeping things running is partially my responsibility I can't. I hate that. Deadline: With NO retreats, the next deadline will be for Fall '03. Date: Tuesday the 11th. In the interest of the break, please enclose as many conditional retreats and potential builds as possible. I will send out the reports and then confirm everyones conditionals individually at the same time. So hopefully we can take the break with winter 03 behind us and set the Spring 04. ------------------------------- ::--> Orders.
