They say it's the greatest delight for a teacher to see his former pupil outperform him in the very field the teaching was conducted.

As strange as it may sound, taking into account the age and professional background, it was me who played the role of teacher. To put the long story short short: it's with the greatest pleasure that I announce creation of General-Mayor Willian Cann a count of Russian Empire. The honor is granted for numerous victories achieved: 23 Major and 7 minor.

To General-Mayor Count Cann!!! Ura! Ura! URA!!!

UPDATE: General-Mayor Count Cann-AUSTERLITZKY!!!
And yet again Ura! Ura! URA!!! 8)

Well done, Bill!

I'll salute that as well, in spite of what the accomplishment signifies in terms of damage done to LGA.

My most hearty congratulations to you, Count!
Hope, we would fight altogether shoulder-to-shoulder sometime.

Cuirassiers and Grenadiers - the backbone of any army! :D :twisted:

Congratulations Bill! Being on the wrong side of your aggression in our SON Multiplayer game, I am not surprised to see you elevated to Russian nobility... they love their tough warriors!

Cheers,
Tim
