Officers of La Grande Armée and of the Anglo-Allied Army.

As the Festive period approaches, may I humbly request that we pause for a moment and give thanks to our comrades in arms on both sides of the divide.

La Grande Armée for allowing the Allies a few successes and the Anglo-Allies for always coming back for more. Seriously, though, the NWC membership deserves great recognition as both the number of games being played and of new recruits entering service continues to grow. Likewise, the number of interactions hitting the Forums is increasing too. All great to see.

I would personally like to thank the Leadership of the various Armies, that make up the Anglo-Allied Army, they have offered me a great deal of assistance over the last 10 months. In particular, I would ask Generalfeldmarschall Scott Kronprinz Ludwig von Preußen to take a bow. He has the patience of a saint.

May I finally take the opportunity to wish everyone and their loved ones a very Merry Christmas. Remember there is a plethora of discrete military tailors who can let out uniforms to accommodate that extra food and wine consumed in celebration.

However you celebrate the Festive period, enjoy!

A fine and generous message — especially the part about the LGA allowing the Allies a few successes.
The Cossacks’ official spokesperson responce on this matter is as follows:

Such kindness is, of course, entirely in keeping with French tradition… and we are, naturally, deeply grateful for the French explanation of Allied victories. It is a most helpful narrative — particularly for newer LGA recruits still familiarising themselves with the realities of facing veteran Allied troops.

May your uniforms survive the holidays with only minor tailoring and may the New Year bring clear maps, steady musket sights and fewer French miracles!

Hooray for the Holidays!!

Well said Général Morgan! (Though your statement on allowing us a few victories is properly summed up by General-Leytenant Tartyshev! :frenchlol: )

I too wish to extend appreciation and thanks to our great members of the Club! Playing games, participating in the forums, writing AARs and the outstanding batch of new officers who joined us this year!

I'd like to thank Gregor for his kind comment and in return give the same recognition to him! He stepped into the breech to serve and has done an amazing job doing so, helping to continue and build upon the success we've had in recent years. Also to Major Sergio Porres & Lieutenant Steve Simenic, the training staff at L'École Spéciale Impériale Militaire, Maréchal d'Empire Pete Russo, Maréchal d'Empire Paul Chavis and Maréchal d'Empire Mark Oakford for the awesome work they've been doing with La Grande Armée!

My fellow officers, commanders, leaders & staff in the Allied Coalition, your participation and camaraderie are greatly appreciated!

We wouldn't be here without all of our members! Drinks are on me for the next week!

Three Cheers......

......Huzzah, Huzzah, Huzzah!!!

Here's to 2026!!
:thumbsup: :frenchcharge: :frenchdrunk: :frenchcool
