Gents,




Sorry! Just remembered the adjudication as I was about to go to bed. For those of you interested in Dip variants I spent the better part of the last 12 hours creating a Realpolitik module for Ambition & Empire. It's not quite done yet, but I got as far as I could alone and tonight. Great variant, it should be offered on DC soon by Robert Stein, a great GM!




Anyhoo...let's get to the important stuff, shall we? Your adjudication is below.




Prelims due in 15.5 hours!
