Folks,
I'd like to congratulate Rodrigo on his beautiful baby girl. I'm glad you were all willing to wait while he got his home life in order. Of course, I would have held things anyway, as I know how crazy things get when you bring a new member of the family home.
On to game news: The ERV draw fails by two votes, and we move on with the action. Standoffs on either side of the board flank the action in the middle, where England and Venice both make positional advances. We have no retreats, however, so it's right on to winter!
