[Panel 1]
[Bell]
Nils, have you...
what are you DOING?

[Nils]
Working out what happened
at this summer's naval
exercises in the Baltic.

[Bell]
. . .

All right, I have to
admit, that WAS an
answer to my question.

WHY?

[Nils]
Wargaming.

[Panel 2]
[Nils]
See, they made a big fuss
about the amphibious assaults,

But half the
ships there were
minesweepers
or minelayers.

[Bell]
So they were making
a point to somebody?

[Nils]
Well these things always
have a certain amount
of, how can I put it...?

[Panel 3]
[Elizabeth]
"Come and have a go if you
think you're hard enough"?

Only in
Russian,
obviously.

[Nils]
Now now, they might have
been warning off the Finns.

[Panel 4]
[Nils]
Though if you believe Jaakko
the Finnish Navy is all tiny
suicidal missile boats hiding
between the islands.

[Elizabeth]
And Coastal Jaegers!

[Bell]
So what's the wargame?

[Nils]
Don't know yet. But if I ever
need to plan an invasion of
Sweden I know where to start.
