Well it's a new year in the Empire but the old troubles remain. Bethlen-Gabor still holds Wien under siege but Bucquoy has a slight manpower advantage and we will sortie with another detachment so hopefully that is enough to drive him away. More Spanish reinforcements have arrived in Linz but they will sit tight until the weather improves and we make plans for the campaigning season. I see the big Protestant army that had been threatening Budweiss has moved back towards Prague but was unable to make it in one month so I hope they are suffering in the winter weather.
