Kingston, Upper Canada

Headquarters of the Military & Royal Governorship of His Most Britannic Majesty's Royal, Provincial and Colonial Dominion in British America and the British West Indies

The Commander-in-Chief of His Most Britannic Majesty's British Armies in America was very soured by the news.

"Egads! Percy" he cried, "Of almost two dozen battles or so in the last two months, four, four pathetic victories! Good God man! What are my commanders doing? I can't possibly write London with this news....."

He takes his pen to write:

To All Commands in His Most Britannic Majesty's British Armies in America:

This message arrives at the most dire of times for the Crown. Our forces all over North America are being turned back my the rebel rabble, savages and forked tongue Frenchmen. What in the name of Good St. George are you all doing out there??

Please make every effort to make sure that the war continues and isn't promptly ended, as that would be a great misfortune to us all.

Given under My Hand and Seal at Kingston this 12th day of September, of this current year,

Ludwig

Sire as a new recruit who has finish six games, me thinks that the Kings Armee should have a face off with one another a training maneuver. To learn the in and out of the Rabble gave the Lads a refresher course, you could see who's on broad. The commanders vs the lower ranks the lower ranks the rabble and the upper rank His Highness. Just this poor Loyalist thoughts.

"I say Percy, give Corporal Tye of Lord Dunmore's Ethiopian Regiment a hot meal & a refreshing drink! Smart man!" :mrgreen:

Actually Cliff, I love your idea, I love pretty much all your ideas, in case you didn't know. :D Taking the King's Army on maneuvers for those interested is a great idea! Those who want to refine their game. I actually one up it and think that every army should go on maneuvers for those who wish to. "The Great 2014 Fall Quarters & Drill Maneuvers" or something like that, to prepare us for the 15th Anniversary of the Club next year when hopefully we will go on a Great Campaign. :D

I'll take your idea to the admins and see what they think.

And with the Royal Scooper solidly in Percy's hand, all is well again.

After our long voyage back, there's a significant bit of salt water rust on the lads' bayonets. But soon they'll be shimmering in the sun, in perfectly formed rows, in the fields of our colonial NEW~ENGLAND.

It is my firm belief Lord Natta that you and Lord Bartholomew will not have a long stay in His Majesty's Royal Marines..... :) That I am sure a more lofty position, eh, maybe the Brigade of Guards awaits you.... :)

Also a Dukedom is in sight, just 82 more games to go!! :P ;)
