Due to PMC, moves are due on Sunday, though at 9PM so I can sleep since it’s a school night.

As French expeditionary forces fail to take Holland and are forced to retreat from Switzerland, their fleets seize London while being forced out of most of the Iberian Peninsula by Italian troops! The Ottomans retake Romania, but fail to cover Bulgaria as the Austrians advance behind. The British now control very little of their home isles, while the Russians fail to take Romania and trade Norway for Sweden.

• 

The Roman Republic faces serious setbacks as the Carthaginians drive them from newly-taken Sardinia and reassert control over the southwestern Mediterranean, while Greek and Egyptian naval invasions sneak behind their lines and seize home territories! While the Egyptians make huge gains, the Greeks have become more scattered than ever; the Parthians have finally marched to the Aegean, and show no signs of stopping their march into Greece.

As a Ptolemaic fleet hovers in Southern Italy, Carthaginian troops allow the Egyptians into Leptis. Meanwhile, Roman fleets take charge of the Western Mediterranean but leave Southern Italy virtually undefended and allow a Macedonian fleet to breeze into the Adriatic, leaving Sicily, Ravenna, and Neapolis out in the cold. As the Greeks face imminent danger from every direction, the Egyptians take to the waves and assert dominance over the Eastern Mediterranean. However, the Persians continue their slow but impenetrable advance across Asia Minor, threating the free city of Miletus while verging on the Hellespont itself.

• 

As Italian troops seize Marseille, German and French troops cross the Rhine at the same time, while a Royal Navy offensive seizes the North Sea! Meanwhile, Russian troops break Ottoman lines and take Rumania, while Austrian and Ottoman troops remain deadlocked in trench warfare. In Scandinavia, Russian troops cross the Swedish border while the British remain trapped in the Danish straits!

Moves on Friday again, then builds on Sunday.

Moves due Friday, as usual.

For the time being, normal schedule (next move on Friday). If everyone in this game wants to go at a faster pace, then we can do so if they think everybody will actually follow through if we do one. Potential schedule would be some equivalent of one full phase a week (e.g. Tuesday/Friday/Sunday for Spring/Fall/Build)
