Jim Hall and I would like to play as an MP team vs 2 experienced officers. We are thinking about:
Bonus-001. Bonaparte vs. Charles and Suvorov at Zürich from the RBR Game
Bonus 1. The Battle of Leipzig this has additional forces to help the French
#00a_5. The Russians and More Prussian Are Coming! from JA this gives the French a stiffer fight

other suggestions are also welcomed.

Gentlemen

Ed apologies for using an oxymoron “friendly French Officers” :P

Gentlemen,
(Very loosely termed so you both may be included within that definition.)
Have you found any fried, or even friendly French Officers with whom you could participate in any of these very lengthy battles?

I am neither, so am not sure concerning my qualifications, however, the first named battle, while possibly the smallest, is one I have not played, so I have a particular interest in. I will need a partner, at least 1, to participate with me. Are you so kind to wait a short period while I seek one out?

Regards and compliments of the season,

Mark, thank you for responding, and yes of course we will wait for you to find a partner. I'll send you a courier.

Courier received. Apologies, it seems he is enjoying time out in the tavern a bit more than decorum demands. It's ok, we understand that some need refreshment more often than the rest of us. Recruitment occurs...

If you are still looking for a Frenchmen, I now have time for such a venture.

I am happy to play any of the listed games.

The courier has been sobered up and is now riding your (and others) way, General Webster!
