As a follow on to General Kling's post I wanted to draw attention to an impending achievement.

As we know Marechal Bardon has become famous for his 124vp's as the greatest French officer. He is soon to be joined in the 100 club by Marechal Johnson. This Marechal does not have the profile here of poppying jay's like myself (Clifton Seeney's term for me :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ) but he has gone about his business without much fuss smashing the allied rabble and now sits on 99vp's! With no less than 48 major victories to his credit!

Only a 'single' from cracking the mighty century. We shall celebrate this event with our usual panache.
General Moss this must be your round. What are you 1000vp?

Salute!

To Marechal Johnson's Current Opponent (Whoever that may be):

Hold the line, man! For God's sake, hold the line!! :shock: :shock: :shock:

Sorry, I just had to get that out of my system...

Congratulations on your achievements, Paul, even though they do come at a price for the Coalition. A Guardsman in any army deserves the respect of all.

Well, at least I can say that none of those victory points came at my expense. Congratulations Marechal Johnson.

Congratulations indeed to Mr Johnson.
