BRONZE CORYDORAS - Spring 1904 GM Ally Bain
Not sure if England will be happy about their moves with France bouncing them in Mid-Atlantic Ocean. The other part of the moves will have Italy thinking things through. Funnily enough, Turkey may be grateful of the French fleet in the West Mediterranean Sea.
Russia re-took Sevastopol & might like the idea Turkey did not submit a retreat. Germany got back Kiel but Denmark is gone.
