Ok - I was joshing just a bit with the Dutch Major in another thread but I am really excited about the prospect of a HPS 1813 game where the French for the most part are out numbered and mainly are on the defense.

Sure, at Bautzen they had the numbers and Dresden was purely a divide and conquer affair (but only after an initial day of defense) but if we had a 1813 game we could see La Francaise peacocks have to defend for the most part. Allied blitzing would be in season!

And 1814 .... ahhhhh!!! [:D]

Not only am I looking forward to making these agressive French players fight with a smaller, poor quality army but I am REALLY looking forward to having a 2 to 1 or 3 to 1 cavalry advantage in some of the 1813 battles!
Well Bill, is this a hint? I am not starting any new games even though I have two slots open because you have been saying your new game is coming out soon. The suspense is a bummer.

Well I cant go into titles that's for sure.

Just hoping that 1813 comes out in the next 2 years. I am tired of seeing these Froggies run us over.

Well, you can always go play France '40... [:I]

Anyway, I like being on the defensive. I'm a poor defender, but an abysmal attacker.

Oh rats. In that case .... [:D]

I will just add in a ton of scenarios for Wagram or Eckmuhl that are loaded against the French! [:p]

The French never defend. I will not here of it. The only report I want to hear is that we are advancing! You will grab them by the nose and kick them in the a@@! Oh wait, channeling a WWII general.

Sorry, carry on![:D]
