[Shiber]

Excellent report, and excellent turnchat!!!
One minor mistake though: under the science headline it says we obtained Mil Trad. in 780 but we really obtained it in 790.

[BigFurryMonster]

Quite correct. Edited that.

[GodKing]

Wow. Thanks for all the detail.

[Robber Baron]

Where's the save?

Please post here when the date of the next chat has been decided upon.

[Kloreep]

IIRC, we captured 7 French workers: 1 working on a saltpeter resource, 2 in one the of western cities, and 4 near/in Rheims.

[BigFurryMonster]

Edited for turnchat time. Which one is it gonna be, Mr.President?

[MrWhereItsAt]

Tuesday 0300GMT as there have been no reported problems with this change of time, requested by Aggie.

[BigFurryMonster]

OK. By the way, the pirates that were spotted turned out to be Romans.

(the turnchatters were confused after 6 long hours by the red colour...)
