A budding historian, in an unknown continent, sets down to write the history of the fall of the Roman Empire and the rebirth of European civilization with a Germanic flavor.

The solo? Not yet...
The Vandali gain two centres (Brundisium, Ravenna) but lose two (Saguntum, Vindobona) after the Alamanni get lucky. Therefore the Vandali remain on fourteen but are vulnerab[Reply] |

| 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 [Reply] |

| At the least, we will play another year. The Vandali come oh-so-close to fifteen and the solo, taking three centres from the Alamanni, but Carthago returns to Gothi control and so the Vandali are on [Reply] |
| DC456 Imperium - Spring 410 - Zoterik (Oct 07, 2013, 7:21 am) |
| Hold your breath, gentlemen! The Vandali make their penultimate push, and grab two Alamanni centres. One more is needed for the solo victory, but the battle takes place from the Alps down Italy to A [Reply] |

I'll have to review my files, but I do not think we have a conclusion to our game. Please excuse me for a moment while I check.

A relatively quiet end to 407 may germinate the seeds of great turmoil in years to come.
Alamanni:

Franci:
Defaults, removing F Narbonensis

Here are your retreats this turn. We will also have a rather quiet winter turn, with only two adjustments.
