I'm hoping we can get back to a regular schedule of 2 days per movement phases and 1 day for the maps, and then 1 day for non-movement phases. Today is the 12th, so I'm setting the Spring 1497 deadline at 14th tentatively. Please let me know if you need more time. Tagging all players: Santa Anna, Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, Europyrealm, alkania, tpc |

We can get started with the Fall 1497 right after you get the maps (within 15 minutes or so). Movements are due on the night of the 16th Thursday, midnight in Eastern Standard Time (the usual). |

RIP to Netherlands this phase. Got demolished. Unless you have access to the maps the players have, you're in the dark, to be honest. I can tell you that Netherlands did stop some of the vital moves of England's, as it's there in the public results and I can't comment further on them beyond what's already available out there. TL;DR: Don't count him out yet.
After everything is finished and the players says it's okay, I can put the maps up. |

I'll need a day to prepare the maps and also to handle the specific maps for two retreats. Hang in there. I know what I had said yesterday, but... alas... I have to postpone for one more day. Been driving on the road for about 11 hours today, and rested afterwards. I had expected to be alert enough to work on the maps, but it turns out that I am seriously too exhausted to keep awake long enough to do it all, so I'm going to call it a day and go to bed right now. I'm sorry you guys. |

tpc, alkania, Europyrealm, Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, Santa Anna Been working on the maps, and they are complete at last! In your inbox now, ofc. It took me a bit while to sort things out because I thought I messed up some locations of units, and had to go back through each one on the lists to make sure it's all worked out rightly. It seems to all check out great, so that's good news!!  So guys, if you did see a goof, let me know ASAP, so I can fix it and update the maps that it might affect for you and other players. I have worked to avoid human error, but it still could happen.
Okay, we have our Fall 1497 maps, and there's one unit from Netherlands and Spain each that needs to resolve retreats/disbands. At the same time... Current count of Supply Centers (SCs) - Going from NE to SW: Netherlands - 1 (4 if including the home centers) England - 5 (8) France - 0 (3) Spain - 0 (3) Portugal - 3 (6) Netherlands do have one less SC than the number of units, and need to disband one of his units. England has a build available.
Can England, Netherlands, and Spain give me their orders to me for the 1497 Fall Retreat/Winter Build phase? Due on the night of Aug 20th, that should be roughly 45 hours from now.
Edit: Isakov found a mistake, I've updated the maps and reupload them to Netherlands and England now.

I received orders from each player for this phase, but one of them is unclear, I've asked for clarification. I'll wait for 1 more day.

Alright, I think everything is sorted out. I do have maps to give out following the results of the retreats, you should see them in your inboxes fairly soon (in an hour at most, to be safe if anything happens during the process - Doubt it though because I'm at my uncle's right now and he has a very good WiFi). In the meantime, Spring 1498 is due on 24th. Tagging all players: Santa Anna, Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, Europyrealm, alkania, tpc |

Quick correction to all maps that I just handed out: I realized I typed "1496" in the messages instead of the correct year 1497. The graphics of the maps themselves are still correct, and the filenames of the pictures are also still correct. Whoops!  |

Or even if you don't need more time but you wanted to use every available hour up to the deadline to make sure you can put in some updates or changes to your orders, same thing, pop a message out to me.

There was so many visual changes to the map, I couldn't finish all of the changes to the map last night. But I've prepped & finished them and then uploaded to everybody just now.

I was a bit surprised when I counted how many people have a build for this winter, I think this is probably going to be the biggest building phase in the whole game and might not be reached again even for the later years. But that's just idle speculation. By the way, congratulations on France and Spain for reaching their own very first colony for each of them, just now!
Current count of Supply Centers (SCs) - Going from NE to SW: Netherlands - 1 (4 if including the home centers) England - 6 (9) France - 1 (4) Spain - 1 (4) Portugal - 5 (8) So... Netherlands has a unit to retreat (or to disband then build). England has 1 build France has 1 build Spain has 1 build Portugal has two builds Can you give me your winter orders by tomorrow 29th at the usual time? Midnight GMT-4 or EDT (American Eastern Daylight-Savings Time), that is. I could wait for another day if necessary. This is a rather pivotal winter phase. On the same subject, I'm announcing that I've already warned France to not fail to submit orders. Even though he didn't NMR in multiple phases in a row which would disqualify him, but it's been happening quite too often. I'm hoping to see improvement in the future.

One last thing to add as an important announcement to remind everybody:
THE GAME ENDS IN TWO MORE YEARS (1500)!! This means there will be only 4 more movement phases (and 1 more winter phase in-between).

Apparently PSV is according to the Wikipedia: "The Philips Sport Vereniging, abbreviated as PSV and internationally known as PSV Eindhoven is a sports club from Eindhoven, Netherlands." Didn't know that... interesting coincidence, lol. Or is it? Tagging all players: Santa Anna, Wilhelm Ritter von Leeb, Europyrealm, alkania, tpcSept 1st deadline for Spring 1499, btw.
