As the prior Napoleon, I believe it is only right that I should allow someone else who wants the easiest job to take a crack at it.
For that matter, I am willing to concede my invitation for newcomers on any position at all.
I will however be glad to play, whether as reserve in case of dropout, or to fill in a lot, or even as Nappy the Newspaper guy again. I have to admit it would be thematically appropriate for the same French team that worked so well together to step up in challenge for the next game.
In short, I am available to serve in whatever capacity. (But there is a possibility, not a certainty, that my plans for a Republic of Rome forum game will take precedence in one or more ways.)
