<b>The New Blue is Black!!

New Officers Both Recruits and Returning</b>

For all ages of these lands stand the prominent one of them all. I speak of Prussia. The Prussian Armee is one of the best chances to make something of yourself in this club or a cool place to relax and disappear from the masses and have some fun if that is your style. We are a low key force that tries to have fun and encourage good gamesmanship and positive additude. We don't require you to be constantly playing games as some Armies. We don't pester you every month with musters. We don't wipe your existence in the Armee and club away like most of the others if you leave. We offer one of the best medals and promotions system. Not unweildy rank points nor medals based solely on victories. Our medals are exstensive and easy to get, but also a fun challenge. We also have plenty of openings and room for growth.

So if you want a nice little place to have some fun, relax, play games check us out.

Who knows maybe you will be the next Blucher, the only man who was never afraid of old Boney!!

You know what they say. Once you go black you never got back!! [:D]

Besides we played a major part in 2 of Napoleon's 3 defeats!!

This message was brought to you and the annoyance of the French and Austrians by the Council to Find More Prussians!! [:p][;)][}:)]

Ah but David you overrode the key words:

<b>but his courage and determination on the battlefield were never doubted.</b>

That is what makes a great Prussian, and may I remind you he never abandoned his Armee as far as I know, unlike your beloved Emperor who left not, one, not two, but three armies to die in their own fate. Yes he was a head of state, but a shameful thing at such a high cost of very hardy soldiers. Prussia would make sure those hardy men were used correctly!!

Of course I am sure if Napoleon could make himself pregnant I am sure he would just to carry on his Empire. [:p][:D]

Good question! Why join up with the Prussians when the Austrians have the best food in town?

And we have Stephane too! [:D]

Ok - beat that! [;)]

Of course, of course one needs good food to comfort themselves as their Empire collapses around them. 'Tis a shame Prussia will rival over all and Austria will go the way of the old man...out the door into the grave.

There's rumors of in a far off distant land a crazed Welshman whom rivals the likes of Stephane and who also is working on a new MOD that looks quite fun!! [:D][:D]
