Folks,
Sorry again for getting this out late. I'll work at putting myself back together, at least as far as Dip goes. Okay, I promised myself the entire first game year that I'd start putting quotes from this variant's namesake in the adjudications, and kept forgetting. Well, I'm finally including one this season, and I hope it's the first of many. I haven't had much chance to peruse the list I was given, but I'm going to try to make each quote as situationally relevant as possible.
As for the action, it looks like we're continuing to see a lot of it. An alliance of non-naval powers seems to be forming in the north, the Pope is still getting dissed by the heathens, the Venetian merchants can't seem to find a friendly market, and the Sultan's forces haven't firmly committed themselves to anything yet.


"Where men have little ability, fortune shows her power much, and because she is variable, republics and states often vary." - Niccoló Machiavelli, The Discourses 1517
