An ancient, disheveled figure in a white greatcoat limps into the tavern.

Helga! I'll take the usual. Schnitzel if it's fresh also.

I hear that these young whippersnappers like Melas have been taking a pounding, so I figured it was time for me to drag my ancient carcass out of retirement.

Now, are the French still using 5-rank line like they did at Malplaquet?

My goodness, my eyeglass prescription has gotten worse several times since the Gentleman was last here so maybe that is why I do not recognize him!
Maybe he came back to make it an even 500 posts!

But in all seriousness, welcome back Gary!
I hope you have fun with Marengo, it is a really great title and the Austrians stand a fighting chance in most of the scenarios!

Oh, things are going fairly well here. Still doing lots and lots and lots of driving though.

"Mein Gott!"

The Chief Austrian Strumple-meister is back!! :frenchlol: :thumbsup: :frenchsalute: :frenchcharge: :frenchcool :frenchdrunk:

And he has Apfelstrudels for all! :frenchhappy:

It is awesome to have you back Gary! Best news I've had all week! I had been meaning to email you for long time now to see if you were interested in coming back and I am glad that you came back on your own! Always great when any old veteran comes back! Glad to hear the ministry is going well too and Marengo is a great game! :)

I'll email you & Jim soon to get you setup on the site again!

And a warm welcome back! Great to see the return of veterans. Moreso if they are highly experienced allied officers.....
