Mr. Knox,
of course you tailor is available, he was captured by the Russians in the Retreat from Moscow. The Prussians will need to get permission to use him...

All your bright colors make you easy targets for our Jager Korps, whom are smart and wear black and green so we blend in with the ground. :)

Colin,
We Prussians don't put on our fancy uniforms to slaughter hogs! :mrgreen:

I must admit Al, your signature is quite handsome. I'm a tad jealous, but I do alright with stubble and a good old snarl on my face, ready to rumble you all Frenchies!!!

Ugly uniforms, bad aim, loud mouths and a penchant for running off and hiding while the Russians do all the real fighting :P

.....and yet, they still have a greater presence than the Austrians, Swedes and British :mrgreen:

Hmmm, I wonder if that includes the Hanoverian contingent of the Anglo-Allied Army. Perhaps I should contact Der Wurger to entertain us with yet another of his magnificent songs. :wink: :wink: :wink:

And was it not a Hanoverian officer that also advanced into the Championship Round of our last tournament? :shock: :shock: :shock:

I must suspect that the esteemed Marechal of France may have forgotten that the Hanoverian contingent is a part of the Anglo-Allied (aka British) Army. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

No, I only chose to include the British in the list.

There are some presences that are simply outsized relative to their martial prowess and require no mention at all. Let's just say that your Hanoverians are hard to miss. :wink:

Also, at least the Dutch, Belgians, Saxons, Bavarians, Hessians and even you Hanoverians had the good sense to be part of the greater French empire at one point or another. :mrgreen:

So, where is this song?

"..outsized relative to their martial prowess..." Yes, I like it! It would seem that a challenge has been laid before me. :P :P :P

My dear Marechal, if it is a Hanoverian song that you want, then a Hanoverian song you shall have. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Meistro, a drum roll please....
