Re: Impromptu Games
I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. Sunday's French rearguard action against the Russians was completely successful. Our forces held back the enemy advance with elan. Even though the battle was fought in widely separated locations, the Russian serfs could not match the determination of our men.

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 19:00 BST. On Friday the French force at Wavre move west towards Mont St. Jean. Too late to help the Emperor, they met the Allied Reserve Corps just to the east of the village. The resultant battle ended with the French being repulsed. The march to Paris can now proceed.

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Sunday's battle against a large Russian force was a victory for the hard-pressed French. The fight was three separate battles where cooperation between the French divisions was impossible for nearly the entire day.

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Tuesday's battle against the Russians outside of Moosburg was a decisive victory despite the fact that the short man wearing the sideways hat was on the field and annoying his generals with less than useful direction.

Re: Impromptu Games
I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Sunday's battle saw the Austrians make a valiant yet futile attempt to wrest the hill NE of Netolitz away from the hated French. Like most aggressive attempts by the Austrians, this one too ended in failure.

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. On Tuesday, the French were successful in capturing the Rayevsky Reddout along with the fleches and Semyonovskoye village site. Casualties on both sides were heavy. It was a minor victory, but a victory all the same.

Re: Impromptu Games
I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Friday's debacle outside the towns of Rudnick and Ulanow was a humiliating defeat for the Austrians. This is why Austrians should never fight in the rain.

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. On Sunday the French were successful in blocking the Austrian line of communication NE of San Pietra. Although the Austrian infantry was no match for us, their cavalry was a constant threat.

Re: Impromptu Games
I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Sunday's battle saw the Prussian forces advance up a long hill and successfully push the French defenders off it. Not even the appearance of the Old Guard and Guard cavalry on the field could stem their defeat.

I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Tuesday's battle as the Prussians was a surprising minor victory given our CinC and the fact that he directly commanded the artillery.

Re: Impromptu Games
I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. Friday's battle was shortened a bit but the French achieved the central position and were in danger of being surrounded. I wonder if that's what Napoleon had in mind?

Friday's battle ended in a humiliating defeat for the Austrian Empire. Rumors of treachery and collusion with the enemy by one of our senior commanders have swept through the army! A certain FeldMarschal Vucassovic was observed being in contact with an enemy general. Shortly afterwards a distinct lack of aggression towards the French was impossible to ignore. Perhaps an independent investigation by the crack Little Gaddesden Intelligencer's Austrian bureau can shed light on this embarrassment.

Re: Impromptu Games
Fear not, Uncle Billy, the Little Gaddesden Intelligencer will not let you down. Our elite Austrian bureau is now on standby, ready to root-out infamy wherever it is found..........and occasionally where it is not. Thoroughness is our watchword. One cannot make an omelette without breaking eggs, after all.
The usual fees of course apply (plus expenses). In advance, if you would be so kind.

Another battle against the garlic eaters, another disastrous loss. The very foundations of the Empire are being shaken. Surrounded and cutoff, the Corps of von Rosenberg-Orsini was crushed. However, it has been reported that a few of senior commanders were seen shaking hands and drinking wine with the victors. Once again, the name Vucassovic and now Saint-Julien appear on the rolls of suspected traitors. We need those eggs broken and broken quickly!

Re: Impromptu Games
You are saved, Uncle Billy. It is my great pleasure to report that a large number of eggs were ceremonially broken this morning at the offices of the Little Gaddesden Intelligencer. A large omelette was immediately prepared and eaten. Numerous toasts were exchanged.
Job done, I think. Never let it be said that we Little Gaddesdenites are slow off the mark!

Re: Impromptu Games
I can play today at the usual time, 14:00 EST, 20:00 CET. On Sunday, word reached us that the Emperor had been kidnapped by the cowardly Austrians. The army responded quickly and searched the towns of Kippengen and Seedorf without success. The Emperor was finally located on a hill to the north in the arms of his mistress. Always the opportunist....

Re: Impromptu Games
And we succeeded on Sunday without any apparent artillery support. Our CinC/Chief Artillerist being otherwise occupied eating figs and picking flowers by the roadside. While his bouquets were most impressive we would have preferred some grapeshot upon the Austrian squares
