I should also answer the question in the description:

"The pump don't work 'cause the vandals took the handles" --Bob Dylan (from Subterranean Homesick Blues)...

BoboLo  December 6, 2007

Yes, point well taken!

BoboLo:

I agree, it is confusing. Even the original map was confusing. I could've made it easier easier by just putting dots in the key, but then, people don't really look at the map. (The original had labels both on they key and in the map).

As usual, though, you did fine. Great time on the game.

And if we're confused, how did the Romans feel?

BoboLo  December 6, 2007

I must confess I found this rather confusing.
