Welcome to the club, gentlemen! :P :P :P

So kind of you to buy a second round for my brave, Hanoverians. In truth, that is probably a pretty inexpensive insurance policy. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I am sure they will shoot back. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ah, what a tangled web you weave when you murder the legitimate rulers of your country, and spread your poisonous sedition to the civilized nations of the world. Drink up mein Herren, for tomorrow we will surely be hunting Parisian sewer rats yet again. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Welcome, Sirs!

Glad to have you in the Grande Armee, John and Christian.

Pay as little attention to the Hanoverians as you can. They tend to show up, get drunk on jagermeister and then get all delusional about their martial prowess. Helga is kind enough to indulge them, and their British paymasters continue to provide liquor subsidies.

But aside from that, best to either shoot them or run them down and move on to a more challenging foe, like Josephine the cat. :mrgreen:

Marechal Bardon is a very wise and accomplished officer, mein junge Fransosich menschen. We Hanoverians are indeed a harmless lot of drunken puppets.... :wink: :wink: :roll: :?

Now which of you two freshly minted French Lieutenants would like to take my sword at Quatre Bras, hmmm? The both of you is it? Gad, I shall certainly need to bring a spare weapon then, if I will be forced to surrender twice. :shock: :shock: :shock:

Thank you gentlemen for the warm(or not so warm :mrgreen: ) welcome.

Helga another round for these gentlemen please!

I will do my very best to be a valuable asset for my superiors, and I promise to bring nothing but honor & victories to the Grande Armee & the Empire and to crush its enemies where ever and when ever!

Well, well, it is good to see the fires of confidence burning so brightly in the bellies of the French youth.

So, Lt. Hecht, calmly I stand on the field of Quatre Bras, awaiting your arrival and the 'crushing' that ensues, for I am rather noted as being fully qualified as an enemy of the Corsican Twirp that you call an Emperor. It was on this very field that I, as a young Ensign, defeated my first French General of the Tyrant's Imperial Guard. Just consider this your opportunity to return the favor. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Thanks for the warm welcome. Judging from the harsh nature of the "tavern skirmishing," I can imagine just how vicious the battles will get. That being the case, I'd better get back to the Ecole Militaire, study and train harder to perpare myself.
