Spring 1901 Moves

It's the first turn, and there are some surprises already! Germany opens into Holland instead of the much more common Denmark opening, allowing Russia to take Sweden guaranteed. Not all is going well for the Tsar however, as he is bounced in Galicia and the Black Sea, indicating that he is being kept at arms length by his neighbors. Everything else seems fairly normal and- holy shit is that an Austrian fleet in Venice??

Here's the new look of the board:

It is now Fall 1901. Powers should submit orders to me by Monday, Oct 6th, at 8PM +8 (8AM -4).

Fall 1901 Moves

The drums of war resonate as the mighty armies and navies of Europe battle in a bid for dominance! A bounce occurs in Trieste as Austria and Italy clash, accompanied by a failed attempt from the Italian army in Apulia to recapture Venice. Clashes also occur in Belgium and Rumania as powers make a wild dash towards supply centers to provide for their precious builds in the winter. Tensions are rising, and one thing is clear- war amongst the hegemonic powers of Europe is inevitable, and only time will tell which of them would prevail.

Here's the new look of the board:

SUPPLY CENTER CHANGES
England gains control of Norway and Belgium (+2 builds)
France gains control of Portugal (+1 build)
Germany gains control of Holland and Denmark (+2 builds)
Italy gains control of Tunis but loses control of Venice, therefore it has 0 builds.
Austria gains control of Serbia and Venice (+2 builds)
Turkey gains control of Bulgaria and Greece (+2 builds)
Russia gains control of Rumania and Sweden (+2 builds)

It is now Winter 1901. Powers should submit orders to me by Tuesday, Oct 7th, at 8PM +8 (8AM -4).
