Unfortunately, we haven't read it. I'll consider it an oversight of the royal librarian.

One is honoured that 'we' have taken the trouble to respond.

OT - but been 'away' so havent had time yet to run your latest mission but it is a top priority and I am sure that it will be as impressive
as the excellent documentation promises.

In future months 'one' knows for certain that Her Majesty will build a solid reputation for quality scenario work.

It is 'written' so and eagerly anticipated by her loyal courtiers.

I hope you enjoy it. That one plays a lot faster than the last one. Instead of an a weekend's worth of hunting, you should be able to play that one in an afternoon. The scenario notes actually contain a small error, but the essense is correct. I only caught it after I sent it in. I'll fix that, as well as a few other tweaks, later on. There's a few other scenarios I have half finished that ought to be fun too.

I'm trying to make one for each platform in the game.

Fantastic news.

Am casing theatrical wardrobe hire emporiums for suitable courtier garb - I favour the
Elizabethan period as my scenarios demonstrate !

Anyways the periods flourishing bowing is appropriate - not sure about the hose though.

I always liked the 18th century more. I fell in love with the clothes in Amadeus and Dangerous Liasons. I need more brocade and lace in my life. :-)
