I don't see any problem with some "jumping." Maybe you are tied by precedent to a harbor entrance and certainly you have set up some dramatic Blue Fox interview episodes, but some jumping is needed to get the story pace picked up.

Some things deserve more than a jump but maybe a paragraph might do. For instance rather than burning up two episodes diengaging Necki from Nott a simple paragraph ("At dusk Necki turned FSG at Nott and fired a few shells at him. Nott turned north and fled. Meanwhile the two dreadnoughts and the Von der Tann bent on flank speed on a direct course for Wilhelmshaven. After chasing Nott for an hour into complete darkness, FSG turned southwest at a flank bell and made a token bombardment of Withernsea to keep the British anxious. Necki then turned for Wilhelmshaven and reached port with no further sightings of the British.") will suffice.

More so than DK, EG has opened up scope for dozens of side stories. The return of Conda and Borys deserves something. The Mighty One is always good for one more tale. The return of Blue Fox to New York and the reaction of the Americans to his pictures/text could be a tale in itself. In fact the return of Blue Fox is important enough to the central story line for Jim himself to write and not an outsourced writer.

While Jim needs to control the central story line, others could relieve him of some very interesting side currents. Jim has to think up new adventures to keep his fans mystified.

And remember, the British are beavering away at the Queens and R class. The Baron cannot drink port before summer 1916 LT.
