| Post subject: | A Toast to Marechal Nowacki! |
Mssrs., At 7:30 AM an avalanche of Russian cavalry swept down upon the cavalry pickets of the <i>Grande Armee's</i> Right Wing, commanded by <i>Maréchal</i> Nowacki, just East of the village of Pumphrey (Twin Peaks scenario). With apparent ease, the Muscovite cavalry brushed aside what they took to be a thin screen of cavalry so as to clear the way for their infantry, force-marching to the front. No sooner had the dust settled from this seemingly irresistible charge, however, when the clarion call of the charge, mixed with shouts of <i>"En avant!"</i>, rang out to the Russian's flank and front: The Muscovites had blundered into an ambush of epic proportions[}:)]. Within 15 minutes the entire Russian 5th Cavalry Dv., 3500 men in all, had been annihilated and its commanders, GMs Berdiaief, Khroutchov & "Phantom", captured[8D]! Charge your glasses, mssrs., and let us toast to the finest cavalry action this <i>grognard</i> has ever seen! <i>Vive l'Empereur</i>! <i>Vive Maréchal</i> Nowacki!! Regards, Paco <i>Maréchal</i> M. Francisco Palomo <i>Comte de Marseille Duc d'Abrantes</i> |

Thank you, Partner! My boys did a good job indeed. They just couldn't resist the temptation to charge their flank [:D] However I'm sure Jeka and Pavel will let us pay for this impudence next turn ... [B)] <center>Maréchal T. Nowacki <b>V KORPUS ARMII RENU</b>

Yes, any allied player must watch out for "Tricky Nowicki," the current Master of Europe and the best player I have run into yet (with apologies to Jim Hall), and his cavalry corps. I personally am looking forward to 1813 and 1814 games where the allied armied have a cavalry advantage. I am going to enjoy watching the French have to change their tactics a bit! N 2/III/AotM |

Bravo! Having had the pleasure of partnering with Tomasz in the Guards Challenge, I can attest to his skill with cavalry firsthand. Well done indeed, a feat made all the more impressive by the caliber of the opposition.

Gary, it is my signature that I have been too lazy to change. I think if you give yourself a signature on one board if you use the same user name in another I think it carried over. Speaking of the American Civil War, where is my CAmpaign Peninsula file? |

Paco - I would like to see this gallant charge. Could you send me the game file (and password) so I can look on this wonderful sight? Oberst Wilhelm Peters 2nd Kuirassiers, Reserve Korps, Austrian Army |

Sirs, a great charge, indeed! What a manoeuvre! I counted on counter-attack to come, but not on this scale and level of perfection! [:D] This sweep left my cavalry in disorder, so only 1500 french sabres fell in a counter-attack, but, fortunately, Jeka keeps russian flag flying high, killing 2200 french cavalrymen (+ some guns) in one swift move on the north! Time for toast for Eugene Gulyaev now! Urraaaaaaaa! GL. Pavel Stafa Leib-gvardii Preobrazhenskiy polk Kommanduyuschiy Korpusom Rezerva 2-oy Zapadnoy armii EIV |

Such response was inevitable [V] I just can't wait to get home from work and see the replay! Anyway, thank you all, Gentlemen! You're too kind... Dean - good luck fighting the famous Jim Hall. It'll be a tough nut to crack, but I hope we both will manage to get onto 3.rd round [:)] <center>Maréchal T. Nowacki <b>V KORPUS ARMII RENU</b>
