You see if you're five miles out over the English Channel, with nothing but sea underneath you, er, there is a very great impetus to say in the air.


....


Sorry folks. I seem to have gotten a day behind myself. Thanks for the patience as your humble GM gets his act together... Exciting things happen on the Dark Ages board of ours as an entire Anglo-Saxon army vanishes into mid-air and the Bretons get a little punch-drunk from the hits that keep coming... Meanwhile the Norse loom in the north, the Swedes loom in the south and the Scots just continue to be the obstinate rock of the middle.


Two Breton retreats are due after the Spring action. Deadline for Summer 835 retreats will be set for Friday, August 29th (11:59 PM GMT). As we chase these up, however, a three-way Swedish/Norse/Breton draw has been proposed. Please let me hear ya holler with your yay or nays to this proposal - deadline for the vote will be set with the Summer retreats.


Please let me know if you spot any errors. Cheers!
