I never took Roy's post to be disrespectful. In these forums, I role play a hard bitten, Jagermeister swilling, Hanoverian who hates Napoleon Bonaparte more than pigs hate soap. I could have simply replied, "Good luck, Ed", but I really don't see a lot of fun in that. Now, I fully know that not everyone enjoys role playing, but I certainly do. You need to take that into account any time you read one of my posts, particularly if you are an LGA officer. When I post as the Club President, you will see a definitely different tone.
I have played many a game with Ed during our playtesting of the 1814 title. He is a fine gentlemen and a talented player. I am currently engaged in MP with Michael, but cannot readily identify him from the three other French officers engaged, so I honestly don't know his skill level. What I do know is that rank does not necessarily equate to skill, and would certainly not assume in reality that Ed will walk all over Michael. It could well be the opposite. I really don't know. My hope would be that they were evenly matched and have a very enjoyable experience playing each other. Given what I do know of the personality of both men, I think they will have fun regardless of how their battles play out. That, in my humble opinion for whatever it is worth, is the goal for which we all should strive.
And now, back to the issue at hand.....
In difference to what your esteemed counterpart, Marechal Kling, believes to be the case, I would say that LGA "can" win this engagement, but would place my money on them losing, just as certainly as that miserable Corsican excuse for a ruler that you so blindly follow will one day be exhiled to a barren rock on which he will expire. Well, if a Hanoverian bullet does not get him first, that is.
