FM Blackburn, my horse, and myself are looking for two French losers (I mean officers) to try to take our swords at the First Day at Leipzig M15-076. We've been waiting for days on the challenge boards but my steed is impatient. He wants the Emperor's white stallion as his stable servant.

Where are the French MEN?

Lets see one more French MAN step up -- the logistics of a two vs. two MP match are much more friendly.

The sides are set:

Three Allied Field Marshals, FM Jones, FM Blackburn, and FM J. Hall will command the Allied Coalition.

The French are commanded by: Michael Hodel , M. Theron Lambert, and Roy Purcell.

I offer a toast to Napoleon's officers and wish them the best in the coming contest.

Hey, he inserted an evil, devil's face. He meant to insert a happy, smiling face didn't he? :o :shock: :wink:

I think it would save everyone a whole lot of trouble if you Frenchies just laid your swords on the ground and quickly ran away. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Frenchies standing the field against Anglo-Allied Field Marshals....what a bravely doomed concept. :roll: :evil: :twisted:

I am not certain that satisfies all, or perhaps any, of the parameters of "being nice", but I can see how going for the jugular might actually be fun (only in computer wargaming of course). :evil: :twisted: :mrgreen:

Mark ,

You have to show some support - you cannot be thinking your English FM's are " bravely doomed " from the get go :shock: we think they have a chance (a small one but still a chance )
But it is understandable to anticipate the worst when you allies encounter the Grande Armee :D :D
As your Spanish friend would say - "esta pan comida" :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Ah, Marecal Purcell. I see that you have unfortunately misunderstood my previous comment pertaining to the inevitable defeat of your officers by ours. Fully understandable, I suppose, as English is not your primary language. Have no worries though, good sir, for once the forces of order and reason overcome the seditious, revolutionary rabble of France, we shall cast your self absorbed leader into the depths of the Atlantic Ocean and commit ourselves to the construction of universities throughout your country where the King's English will be properly taught to all. :wink: :P :mrgreen:

Herr Jones, you have been imbibing the jagermeister again I see. That's understandable as dousing yourself in that concoction must be the only way to inure yourself to the inevitable victory of France and the downfall of the ancien regimes you have unfortunately pledged fealty to.

Drink up my allied friends. You're going to need it. :P

Well, yeah! Helga's got thousands of bottles and somebody has to drink the stuff. :roll: :wink: :mrgreen:

Now as far as the rest of your message, it sounds like you intend to embark on a killing spree. Even so, the part about the "inevitable victory of France" is pretty dang humorous. If I did not know better, I would think you had been indulging in some Jagermeister yourself. :wink: :roll: :oops:
