Diplomats,
With all of our leaders again functional the war continues apace! Heavy lies the head of Caesar back in Rome, as both Egypt and Greece made relevant gains on her position. Might this portend another draw vote soon? Or does the EG alliance have bloodlust on their minds?
Once again, no retreats. It is a cold epoch here in the Med as summer and autumn are virtually non-existent as seasons over the last decade. ;-)
Happy dipping,
Dirk
