Turn 50 sent. As the last year of the game approaches, I see the Galaxy has broken down into a general war for control of the Imperial Throne.

Have we got stuck somewhere [:(]? Last thing I did was send turn 51 on the 17th.

I have resent turn 51 to Ian Powter's address, which has always worked before, so it's a mystery to me.

Lunaticus sent me this:
"Hi Casus_Belli,
maybe it is a time-zone thing? Alexandre lives in Brazil so for him the 16th might already be the 17th for you?
Best regards,
Nicolas"
And sure enough, he is correct. I received, played and sent turn 51 on the 17th. I have not received another turn since then.

Drako turn 52 sent out.
My apologies to everybody for having to reopen the turn. I started playing it late last night but did not get to finish.
Best regards,
Lunaticus

Cadwall turn 53 played and sent on.
It's turning into a real nail biter. The entire Drako Navy just showed up on my door-step, but with the time left in the game, will they be enough to make a difference?
I amazed we're going to finnish this one.... 5 players..60 turns... awesome job everyone!

Turn sent, sorry for a coupla days delay. A nail biter indeed, and great to belong to a group of like-minded obsessives. It's one of the best things about the net, being able to hook up with people who are interested in hex-games. I don't know anyone irl who is!

Turn 54 sent.
I do not know if we will be able to stop House Cadwall (GrumpyMel) but at least we can give you a good fight for your money.

Turn 55 sent on to House Romanov.
You certainly would if the game went on longer. With only 5-6 turns left I'm not sure if you'll have enough to do so...but it's going to be very close.

Turn 55.
A massive attempted landing on Circe by DeCastillian forces has been repulsed with heavy casualties by Cadwalli fighters. Similarly, an attempt to occupy one of Cadwall's starbases has been stymied by a small but determined force assisted by psi(shoudl be psy)-ops units. We expect to occupy this starbase next turn, but it's bit like Omaha Beach there.

Turn 56 played and sent on to House Romanov.
Omaha Beach is right. It's a bloodbath up there, complete with heavy fire support from Drako ships. Turning back the DeCastillo landing forces could have been a crucial play.
Elsewhere, House Cadwall forces have made landings on the Sian-Chi homeworld of Tranquility, capturing 2 settlements there.

Turn 56 sent. Heavy battles on several fronts. Also the saboteurs are getting to be a nuisance.
As now turn 57 is the August turn I am assuming that there are still five rounds left to the game, right?

Additionally: I hope I mentioned already that I think this is a great scenario. Very enjoyable as can be seen by the evidence of the second testgame now running over a year already and running.
Very much looking forward to an ATG version of this scenario. I think with the new editor features some nice things could be incorporated. Having the alliance feature by itself will make for very interesting new ways to play...

I can double check, but I believe December is the last playable turn. January simply declares the winner...I'll check the code when I get a chance and let you know for sure.
Turn 57 played and sent on to Romanov
