So that's where we are. We've got a new enemy now, but a few new cities. I'm sending out the savegame, so I'll give the ministers a day to analyze the game, 3 days for polls, and I'd like to play again on Tuesday or Wednesday.

nice round. couple of questions though - where was the transport when it was attacked and sunk? The transport for the gems in the area I had suggested does seem to be still in the water... Also curious as to how you managed celebrating cities - looks like we could have taken better advantage of it in a couple cases (Seville and Vigo come to mind at first glance)

I'll take a look at everything and see what type of polls and comments i need to put forth

[ixnay]

The transport was sunk in the waters between Seville and Nagoya. It was on its way carrying 2 gem caravans to the Chinese. And apologies for mismanaging any celebrating cities.

I think it sounds like an entirely satisfactory session. Good work by President Ixnay!
