A few misorders but perhaps the worse was the result of Russia. England, Germany & Turkey were involved.

PRESS

Vie Govt: The Archduke denounces the invasion of the glorious empire and announces his intention to fight the Italian barbarians to the death - theirs.

Par Govt-Con Govt: Congratulations!

Ber Govt: Germany officially declares war on the French and any allies of said country. (This declaration is null is void if the Motherland is stabbed by the English, in that case, long live the French!))

Rom Govt: Archer is also the type of troop who were decisive in the massive English victory over the French at Agincourt. Why does that only occur to me now?

Con Govt: Archer is also the name of the hardboiled detective in 13 Ross MacDonald gumshoe novels. Paul Neuman played Lew Archer in the movie adaptations of two of the novels, only the character's name was changed to "Harper".

ALB: Sagittarius is a Latin translated to 'the Archer' in English. It's a constellation seen in the southern hemisphere sky.

Spring 1903 deadline: 7pm BST, 29th October 2003.
