The key to surviving this site is to not say something which ends up as someone's tag line - Steelgrave

"their citizens (all of them counted as such) glorified their mythology of 'rights'...and lost track of their duties. No nation, so constituted, can endure." Robert Heinlein, Starship Troopers

I'd forgotten about this.
Very much looking forward to seeing the campaign as it develops.
"Most gods throw dice, but Fate plays chess, and you don't find out until too late that he's been playing with two queens all along".  Terry Pratchett.

During filming of Airplane, Leslie Nielsen used a whoopee cushion to keep the cast off-balance. Hays said that Nielsen "played that thing like a maestro"

Tallulah Bankhead: "I'll come and make love to you at five o'clock. If I'm late, start without me."

"When all other trusts fail, turn to Flashman." — Abraham Lincoln.

"I have enjoyed very warm relations with my two husbands."
"With your eyes closed?"
"That helped."  Lauren Bacall

Master Chiefs are sneaky, dastardly, and snarky miscreants who thrive on the tears of Ensigns and belly dancers.   Admiral Gerry Bogan.

Ha....first I knew that I had lost the campaign was the appearance of this AAR.....bout typical for the general lack of knowledge/intelligence I had in the whole campaign....one very broken and dissallusioned General Brunswick!

I can't wait to find out myself about the where, what and how of my dimise...I thought I was sitting pretty, but tired, in Leipzig with quite a lot of my boys....shows how little I know....he he!

Great game and I know I shouldn't say it but I would dearly love to do something like this again in the not too distant future if Jim can summon up both the energy and time to do it all again. Thanks for a great gaming experience Jim...very much appreciated indeed.

To My Lord of Brunswick and all the others I owe a real debt of thanks.  I'll have much more to say (I really always do) in the AARs, but I am grateful for the fun.

And, yes, there will be another.

Enjoying watching the videos and reading the usual Grog-banter.  O0  How did Napoleon and his Guard get all by himself so far north?
"Take a look at that". Sgt. Wilkerson-- CMBN. His last words after spotting a German tank on the other side of a hedgerow.

@Slash -- In a fashion that reminded me much more of Gustavus Adolphus than the Little Corporal, he took a chevauchee up that way looking for Prussians to kill.

Bold, but he swung at air.

So, are the videos being released in real-time to correspond to the pace of the game?  :-"

Ditto!  I've already watched the four.  Found a couple more from the last day on YouTube and I refuse to watch them out of order.  MOAR PLEASE!

If you want real-time of the game, you'll need to watch them frame-by-frame.
