In NWC World News, the French Army musters the Rhine Forces to see if any of the Kingdoms they have paid off still like them. As usual the Saxons lead the charge away from the Army but are glad to take its money. One Saxon named der Fermange was even heard to have yelled, "Death to the Wine Drinker, but Give us Your Money!!" [:D]

In a typical show of force, the Polish Corps has shown up in good numbers, promised of course with actually having a home to go back to....like they have a choice. [:(]

The Bavarians faltered a bit, but have come up strong now, citing the chance to have a beer factory in Alsace. [;)]

Of course nothing is known of any other Rhine forces, as King Jerome runs straight to the Castle when his little short stack brother calls for him. [:0]


In other news the Austrians make good creeps....oh wait sorry that was suppose to be crepes! Pancake breakfast thingys...not weird in the middle of the night children snatchers....but hey they do look like Ice Cream Truck Drivers...[}:)]


Finally the British and Russians have perfected the flying Donkey! In a stunning play off at Waterbury Field, the British using an a** rasied in Ireland, have taken a Russian 12 lb cannon named Little Vlad and launched the Donkey across the sea at Ireland where the Irish calimed the donkey made an a** of himself all day long....[:p]

That is all from NWC World News Headquarters...I am your anchor Old Windy!! [:D][:D]

(Entertainment for the week, enjoy yourself!!) [8D]

Quick update:
News of the flying donkey soon reached the ears of the Household cavalry and they have decided to reequip themselves entirely with Donkeys. It would seem these famous British regimients are concerned about the uncontrollable nature of their troopers and feel that the donkey is a more controlable mount.

Adding to this the household cavalry are now reported to be training with lances and windmills in Spain [:0]

This is GDB Knox reporting from London[:)]
