Jumping in on the recruiting threads for the other armies ....

Join the RUSSIAN ARMY!

You can feel like you're an army of ONE.

No one from the army will email you to check on you.
No one will bother you with musters.
No one will even acknowledge you exist within the army.

Okay, okay I'm being a little harsh, but jeeeesh ...

I guess my battle record isn't good enough for them to recognize me. I switched armies to find opponents, and have found enough French players to keep me active which is good.

Back in the day I was a Cold War warrior (served in the ANG from '79-'85), now I'm just a warrior out in the cold. ;-)

It's warmer in Hanover, Al. :wink: :wink: :wink:

And we regularly correspond with each other. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Of course, anywhere is warmer than Siberia! :shock: :shock: :shock:

I think you fell prey to the illustrious title of the Russian unit that the charismatic Kosyanenko offered during the 'Bidding Wars' for your service. We Hanoverians, and our Brunswick allies as well, have no illustrious titles to offer as compared to any of the major powers. What we do offer is a warm bed, and the best camaraderie of any unit in this club. It all depends on what you are seeking. As I said at the time, unit titles mean absolutely nothing. What you do is far more important than what you are called. 8) 8) 8)

Please understand that I am not trying to recruit you. Scott Ludwig will be along to do that when he returns from his vacation. I am simply offering you an alternative if you are truly not happy. The Russian Army has the same ability to read this post as I do, and are the only ones that can redress your displeasure within their ranks. We German brothers will gladly take you in and provide you a home if you need one.

Ah, mein Major, had you joined the Prussian army you would never lack for a monthly email from your commander. You would not be stuck out delivering mail in Siberia.

And most of all ... you would be riding for the Black Menace, which already has defeated many Frenchmen!

But then what can you expect from a postal worker? :wink: :mrgreen:

RUFF RUFF!

They are probably afraid to come to Tulsagrad for fear of getting their horses stolen! :lol:

Mark Nelms ... you're probably right. ;-)

Mark Jones ... not complaining, really, just observing.

Bill Peters ... you and Scott have the Prussians nailed down, but thanks.

Was NOT inviting you over to our army. Far from it. Was gloating about ours! :mrgreen:
