Game Notes:

1) There I go trying to change a supply center ownership abbreviation and get myself off track. FRANCE actually only has 3 builds since I forgot to remove ownership of Papal States from him as Austria took it. I used "pps" for the abbreviation there, but "pap" for it in FRANCE's list, which is why I didn't catch it. Thanks for the heads up on this. Also, England could also retreat A Colombia-Amazon, and he chose to do just that. Especially with retreat options, you will do well to check me.

2) I've also cleaned up a few minor issues in the Supply Center Chart and added what might be the complete list of remaining neutrals. Thanks to Robert Stimmel for giving me a hand!! Check if I have any more confusing or repetitive abbreviations there. I am going to keep listing the movements with full names to make it possible for readers following the game to tell what is happening.

3) Sean O'Donnell takes over permanently as the Dutch and I have two more standbys, thank you!!

Press:

(NETHERLANDS-BOARD): Hope no one minds.

(OTTO-MOS): All that being true, would not it have made more sense for you to tell me to take it? ((Huh? I presume that means something.....))
