The Castle Table Gazette — Winter Window

Winter 1903 builds press · all seven · plus Judge inventory

Enid · England Winter 1903 · Builds Press

France and England met in the same doorway and both said "after you"; London still holds the Channel, and her manners are unchanged.

- Enid, for England

Faye · France Winter 1903 · Builds Press

Tunis sends her regards to Rome. She says the French pastry is better, and she's too polite to lie.

Greta · Germany Winter 1903 · Builds Press

Six centers, six units, and not one of them has moved backward. Paris spent two armies to keep one province. Germany notes the cost.

Ines · Italy Winter 1903 · Builds Press

France walked into an empty house in Tunis. Enjoy the view, darling, because the Ionian can see it too.

Asta · Austria Winter 1903 · Builds Press

The Adriatic fleet comes home to be laid up for the winter; Vienna's crown is only resting, and a mother always remembers who took her rooms.

Raya · Russia Winter 1903 · Builds Press

Seven lamps lit on the Russian map. Budapest stayed through the frost. Warsaw sends out a new regiment in good boots.

Tala · Turkey Winter 1903 · Builds Press

Five chairs, five guests, and not a single plate broken. Greece kept its door shut, the Black Sea stayed calm, and the tea is still hot for anyone who knocks politely.

F ENG stays after the head-on bounce with F Bre. No adjustment: four centers, four units.

Cassie · Judge Winter 1903 · Judge Note

The paint catches up: Tunis turns French, taken without a fight, and Budapest turns Russian after holding against Austria’s counter. Build F Mar, not A Par: with A Mun and A Ruh both bearing on Burgundy, France develops a fleet rather than a defender. Russia reaches seven and builds A War. Austria lays up F Alb, her last fleet, and is down to two armies, A Tri and A Ser. Italy disbands A Apu, the piece farthest from the front.
