[list][*][b][color=red]Karalian Uprising[/color][/b]: The [b][color=beige]Seljuk 14th Army[/color][/b] under General Hassan Mahmed ([i]Loyal/Alcoholic[/i]) is defeated at the [b][color=red]Battle of Harash[/color][/b]. Elements of the 14th army crossed the river and were promptly attacked by Karalian insurgents, but managed to repulse them. While handling their dying and wounded, the Karalian Army sortied forth from the hills, using mostly M1902 Schutze rifles stolen from nearby Seljuk garrisons. Outnumbered 2,700 against 8,000, the Seljuk soldiers fought a delaying action, retreating under withering fire from Karalians across the rocky, jagged outcroppings that lined the river. With over 1,700 dead, the Karalians proclaim a great victory.


[*]An unnamed Zellonian fleet departs from Zellonia into the Inner Sea toward the Seljuk Empire. Early that morning, only forty kilometers from the coast, the [i]ZRN Hope[/i], an armored cruiser strikes a mine that long was assumed to have floated from the Sessauan coast. In a span of six hours the cruiser goes dead in the water, lists heavily to one side and flounders. Heavy fog inhibits rescue operations, but the captain and 187 sailors are rescue.[/list]

[list][*]Letters from Jouran agents in Dongaria begin reaching the intelligence quarters there. The Dongarians are immensely impoverished, with a million man army they enforce almost constant martial law under King Carl IV, a despotic, near megalomaniac ruler.[/list]
