| Here we go, on to the fifth year of our game of conquest. I'm sure there are many questions which need to be answered, but I'm too jet-lagged to think of any of them. You guys probably kno [Reply] |

| The area that is to become Switzerland is very passable on this map, but all the same we have quite the traffic jam from Marseilles to Milan. Here, the river is the roadblock. Certainly will be in [Reply] |

| The remnants of the Roman empire have, save for a few outlying cities, been claimed by the barbarian incursions. Invariably, the tribes begin to turn against each other for the suddenly-scarce citie [Reply] |

| As more of the Roman cities get swept into the burgeoning Germanic kingdoms, the future of Europe starts to take shape. The Franci are probably the early threat to solo, but the Gothi are also in a [Reply] |

| Well now, what do we have here. Peace continues in Italy as the Alamanni and Vandali expand side-by-side, while the Franci elect not to block Saxon growth. The barbarians are now at the gates of R [Reply] |

| After two years, the main story-lines appear to be the close-quarters fight between the Alamanni and Vandali, the potentially unchecked growth of the Franci and Gothi, and the question of from where t [Reply] |

| I feel as though I'm watching Oprah: everybody doubles their centres! Some moves were easily-anticipated, others were well-calculated. But the Franci still command the lead. It's worth [Reply] |

| The big winner of the first-year sweepstakes is... the Franci! Courtesy of quite a gamble, they manage to finagle a second supply centre while most others must be content with one. However, doom h [Reply] |

| It is a tale of two falling empires! In the West, organization reigns and all four powers can breathe a little easier than they might have done. In the East, meanwhile, the Gothi have likely secur [Reply] |
