The moment of truth is nearly upon us, gentlemen, but I strongly suspect this game might not end this year!  The Vandali grab Ravenna and parry a Saxon attack, but are under threat in Iberia and from the Ligurian Sea.  If Saguntum is lost, the Vandali will need to take two centers, and thus the eyes of Europe rest on Brundisium, although the Vandali are also at risk in Massilia, Genova, and Roma.  All the attention and effort expended to stop the Vandali solo has possibly allowed a respite for the Franci, who might otherwise be looking at elimination--although that threat has not yet passed.

Fall 411 orders are due 28 October at 08:00 GMT.  I'm on the edge of my seat...!
