GUPPY - Spring 1901 GM Ally Bain
Prior to the game; Britain, the Commonwealth & the rest of the world lost a lady who was an incredible individual. Queen Elizabeth the Queen's Mother R.I.P.
The game; amazing, the Western Corner's leaders most be full of diplomatic ends, no attempt to attack the other! The Eastern Square would have been the same but Russia tried & failed to invade but was able to move to the Black Sea even though Turkey's move might make Russia think.

Some players did not send 'Final Orders' & I wrote to them to see if I could class them as 'Finals'. They agreed & as you can see, we are ahead of the deadline & I would like for us to be ahead of this deadline. If you are happy with your orders, can you list them as 'Final Orders' as I will be able to adjudicate ahead of time. Remember your orders need to have possible retreats, builds/disbands & press. Autumn 1901 deadline: 19:00 BST, 16th April 2002.
