My, my... what fun!  It was really a treat to watch these orders come in and I have to say, I was cheering for not-the-draw (and I got my wish).  We do not have unanimous agreement on the End of Game, so we continue.  Naturally, we do have another proposal for the exact same thing, but that will have to wait until the spring.


We do say the official farewell to Sean, as he becomes the latest in a long line of European powers to perish in Moscow.

We have only one retreat pending (with many options, as it comes from the Arctic), so on to the autumn it is!
