[Steppes] Info on Steppes Land Allocation for Gulf Wars

[Chris Baran]

Good afternoon all,

Borek, I read your missive on the Steppes list and, although not a member of 
your fine Barony, I would ask:  Wouldn't this have been better discussed 
with your Baron and Baroness rather than on an open list?  I would think it 
would be more productive in the long run and less likely to start hard 
feelings between the groups.  Gulf Wars is still many months away and I'm 
certain that any problems over land allotments can be resolved amicably 
between now and then.

In Service to the Crown,

Sir Romanius
