Is it tomorrow or late?
As an old reader (under a different name), great to see this back
By Jove, what was your name back then?
Carlstadt Boy. I had maybe a dozen comments, I doubt you remember me. I forgot them until I started rereading the thread recently (I've just reached new updates). Great AAR, keeping the old beacons lit (together with Butterfly Effect).
Indeed I do remember! Glad to have you back! I can only hope you'll still find the story's newest installments read-worthy. The more I try to make them shorter, the more I end up with 12-pagers.
Well that all sounds excellent. I wonder which French submarines we will be meeting? Most of the French sub fleet was designed for the Med (which is hopefully secure enough that nothing interesting is happening) or 'colonial service' which you'd hope is also quiet.Well, the next chapter should be a 14-pager more or less. I have two bits left to write, about some Norway-based intrigue. I promise you French submarines, German merchantsmen, British cruisers, and a much drearier version of King Haakon as the one @El Pip made us know and love some years ago. Oh, and also Ian Fleming, because as much as I can't stand his books I find the man quite fascinating.

As the Surcouf is a bit too predictable to feature, are we going to see some Redoubtables messing around in the North Sea? Or will the Saphirs be laying mines around Norwegian waters and causing the duller/sensible King Haakon to be dragged into intrigue? I look forward to finding out.
What kind of scenario does it exactly involve for that game? I'm piqued.
What's the progress report on the post?
Reverence. Definitely reverence. It's the only appropriate response.At long last, free to write again (and not write-sick from churning up court requests and statistical reports), and thus this week's objective is to finish that damn Chapter 125, with naval and submarine adventure, as well as palatial intrigue as promised. There might be some kind of reference (or is it reverence?) to, @El Pip as well, as History is no stranger to funny coincidences.
