Oh woe is me.
The corsairs and QA swap M/T's (cosairs get vamag with a threat, QA gets
Eradas with a fight). Then the corsairs get a camp/fort with a second threat
to make that turn a (rare) southern victory for the losers (ie the free).
I'm left to add troops for the battles (seems people love me for my money,
not my looks or armies), and grab a defenceless north gondor town (first
enemy pop centre I get to keep ?). But I've lost a bet to be the first DS to
cross the river (we got a decent army with dragon across last turn). I'm
blaming SG for that loss (defeating his huge army at 2732 slowed me down
enough to make me lose the bet), so I want to say up front that I'm going to
repay SG for his favour. Lets see SG survive a direct attack for once.
If it wasn't for the stunning DS victories all over the board, I would start
worrying we might be losing the game. At least I'm not getting weighed down
with huge numbers of great free items that I can't use (its really starting
to annoy someone else in our side).

p.s actually its wasn't that good news for the DS. I heard that the free won
a small battle somewhere in the north (its a pity that dragons can't be
everywhere). Its also a pity about the free character who got killed when he
was being guarded (guess who is now about to go into double figures for
kills). I've always argued that guarding becomes a waste of time when agents
being supermen, ie skill gets past 100 - which is what is now happening for
several DS agents.
Any chance the free could call it quits now ? We can then play the reverse
game, win that on T10 as well, and I can hope to start in the new 2950 game
without having to pay for any other games (I hope Clint isn't reading that
bit).
