So you've made it to the end of another chapter and there really isn't much further for us to go.
We're close to having completed our vertical slice of the game and you can already get a sense

in place as well, we will be able to see whether the Shadows on Deck game has some sea legs in
it or whether it is doomed to remain a land lubber….
