The blurb is probably more interesting than the report :)
I'm still lacking my scenery etc but took photo's anyway as I thought it was interesting  ;)
So many projects..... so little time.......

General Communiqué from His Imperial Majesty Tsar Alexandrovich III’s Colony of Vodkaland

A sinister assasination attempt has been made on Col. Ivan Ironfvist, commander of the 5th Armoured Automation Regiment, by religious fanatics of the Spanish Imperious Inqusition! Col. Ironfvist and a small detachment of personal guards was on a peacful expedition of exploration when they were abushed in the most vile manner by religious fanatics in huge numbers.  The Imperial Russian forces were smashing the fanatics when a filthy assassin, using strange powers and poisons, attacked the colonel  and struck him down. After a violent and brutal battle the few fantatics still alive took to their heels and the victorius Imperial Russian forces made an orderly withdrawl back to Vodkland with the seriously injured Colonel Ironfvist. This unprovoked attack will in no way hinder Imperial Russian expansion into the hinderlands of Atlantis in the future.

Signed,
Count Mikhal Brodinoff
Col. Gen. Commanding
15th Territorial Army
Imperial Colony of Vodkaland

Latest news from Atlantean battlezones...

On the east coast:



Spanish forces in the north-east have blocked further advances by Imperial Russian forces for the time being.

And on the west coast:



US forces continue to advance south-eastwards from the southern part of the west coast, after overcoming a disterous bridge collapse.

Chinese forces on the west coast continue to make advances against the British positions.


Sorry it's taken so much time to do these, real life has been intervening. I'll try to do a little better in coming weeks.

Real life does that, it's so inconsiderate. I see I'm about to absorb two towns. That should be fun :)

The summer and winter capitals of the southern province, no less. The reason I've put you stopping short of them is that you haven't actually launched a genocidal war against the Atlanteans yet. I think we can assume you've made diplomatic contact, though language problems are still making communication a little haphazard.

What it boils down to is, the more games you play, the further your territory can expand. It's slightly more complex than that, but that's certainly an important part of what's going on. Go beat up those Bug-Men!

What the deuce?! I see we Brits are being squeezed on both sides by the Japanese and Chinese... :o
Red Orc, I never had a reply to my last communique about British movements in the north. I assume these haven't happened as we are being pressed by the Chinese ::)

You need to play a game for it to happen  :D ;)

Bugmen wipe out mission in progress! Or rather the underground terrain is in progress, I should be painting my Warmachine figures for the tournament, but this is more interesting at the moment  8)

I'm sorry Malamute, I'm a bad Campaign Overseer. I'll try to track down your last communique. If things need sorting I'll try to sort them.

Do bear in mind, however, that the British zone includes both yours and Gamer Mac's British forces, and he keeps getting beaten up by Chinese hit squads. That's why you're losing territory.

If anyone (except Bullshott*) thinks I'm doing something for them in terms of where their force is going and what it's doing, and thinks I've been a jolly long time about it, please contact me, essays and exams have rather delayed things I'm afraid.

*Bullshott, I'm sorry, I know I still owe you some maps. Would it help at all if I said that there are some people who've never had a map at all? Probably not...

Right then, time to give Gamer Mac a right telling off for losing territories, Its unacceptable and not British.... ;)

Sorry, found the last communique.

I should have sent you a report on the expedition. I will get onto that, I hope you'll have it by the end of the week (after my exam tomorrow I'll have some free time)!

Hey no worries, real life is more important, let me know as and when.
