The sendout each week contains the following tables:

• The Greasy Pole - a list of PCs.
• Mistresses
• The Army Structure
• The Regiments
• Appointments
• Vacant appointments
• Frontier report
• Titles
• Duels
• GM notes
• Game report
• List of players and e-mail addresses

Most of this is fairly self-explanatory. PC's cash and dueling stats are hidden, but both given on a scale of 1 to 6 (cash class and dueling class, CC and DC). Cash Class definitions are at the foot of that table, dueling class measure a duelist's raw power (expertise is not considered here) and the six classes are of roughly equal size for the beginning duelist.

Mistresses: B, I and W indicate Beautiful (+1SP), Influential (gains an extra bit of influence) and Wealthy (cannot pay extra to court, need not pay for her upkeep). Mme indicates someone's wife.

A complete list of all characters (including NPCs) is sent out separately (since it is very long).

The most important tables to look at are:

• the Army table, to see if you're going to the front in the summer,
• the Frontier report to see if and when you're coming back,
• the Vacant Appointments listing, so you know what's on offer, and
• the Duels listing, so you can see what's coming up.

Some of this information should be appearing on your character sheets when I get round to writing the relevant code to put it there.
