Napoleonic Wargame Club (NWC)

Mrss

Do you know that we have an Ecole militaire mess hall ? The object of this forum is to exhange about tactical matters, to make the new officers learn with veterans advices.
Unfortunately, most of the veteran french officer doesn't make the effort to go in it. Last week a new officer posted a question that never have an answer.

So please, if you are a veteran officer, go to the Ecole Militaire mess hall and try to help our new members with tactical matters. I think to Bill of course, our specialist and genius creator of our games. I think to Jeff, Tomasz and all the others like Paul, Theron, Bruce, Jon, Douglas, Richard, Pietras, Drew, John, DEan, Gregor (who makes some visits in the past), Barry, Dejan, Vincent, Bill (Peterson), Paul Mark and all the others.
For the moment we have two questions without answer. Of course, if I had the answer I will do it but I am not a tactician master. Ask for Paco who is playing with me a multi [V]

If you are a new officer go in the mess hall to see the excellent message, for example from DS Walter, former Ecole de Mars CO.

For The password of the Ecole militaire mess hall, please go to the Pierre's Tavern (at the end of this same message) or send me an email.

Parade dismissed and thanks to all for your future help.

Yes Yann I think Mark is one of those closet English Napoleonites.
He is clearly yearning to join the Emperors colours [:D]

Whose is? Not to mention my French ... [B)]

There was nothing wrong with the phrase. I believe what Mark really meant is that he does not believe French officers <i>can</i> read. So that "please read" was somewhat wishful thinking on your part. [;)]

Thank you Dierk. Yes, my intent was that it was assuming alot to think that most French officers could read. If they could they would see the folly of their ways. [:D]

Yann,

Sometimes I am unable to check the boards regularly (this is the first time this month), but I usually mange to check e-mail regularly. There are much better sources for answers, for example Paco and Jeff Bardon, but if needed just drop me a line and I'll do the best I can. This offer applies to any French officer.

Thanks Theron. Your help is always welcome. I will do what you said if need.
