TO ALL:

I tip my hat and sword to GD Michael Hödl, 17ème Régiment d'Infanterie Légère, 1ère Brigade, 3ème Division,
V Corps d'Armée who bested me on the field at Campaign Leipzig / The Battle of Liebertwolkwitz / M15-068. It was a well-fought and exciting contest but in the end, GD Hödl's forces routed my Austrian and Prussian Allies.

It is a bitter pill to see the French Tricolor fly over Liebertwolkwitz, but we must accept the shifting tides of Kriegsglück.

I raise my glass to Général Hödl. He seems like a formidable opponent, and to be bested by the V Corps after a hard fight is no disgrace. The Coalition may have stumbled, but we shall rally.

As for your offer: Helga! A round of Schnapps for the officers table! We shall drink to the fallen and study the maps for the next encounter.

Prost!

Michael is a worthy opponent Muddy. No shame in losing a battle to him.

In the words of General U.S. Grant after the first day at Shiloh, "Lost today, lick'em tomorrow".

Fm Sir Muddy Jones,

it was a hard fight, and it was me a honor to cross my sabre with yours.
We will see what happen at waterloo and Wavre.
Helga cold drinks for my honorable opponent and me, we are thirsty after this hot day.
