On behalf of His Imperial Majesty, Tsar Alexander and Feld-marshal Prince Repnin, I am pleased to announce the appointment of Bill Barker to the Tarnopol Infantry Regiment with the rank of Podporuchik. He has just completed a successful training game with the illustrious Allied Commander in Chief, Andy Moss.

Please join me in welcoming this new officer to the ranks of the Russian Corps. :russianveryhappy:

Long Live the Tsar. Ura! Ura! Ura!

Feld-marshal Cann,
Count Austerlitzky,
Russian Contingent COS.

Bill... All sorted out.. you are free to spread lies about the Frencha with yur other rabble :)

For those of us who create forum accounts... 3 step process

1- Create user account
2 - Assign user to a group
3 - Mark the new group assignment as the default for the user.

Step 3 was missing in this case.

anyone of us who create forum accounts can do all 3 steps

Many thanks John

Only tyrants have need of lies. We represent truth and decency. We may have mad kings but at least they are gentlemen.....

Sorry for the mess gentlemen, but the Sgt @ Arms made me stand at the door until he could find an officer that recognized me. Tough club. Seems I'm in the right place.

And for the record, I don't know any lies about the French, but I do know it to be truth that they were only successful with a Corsican at the helm. :wink:

Long Live the inventor of vodka! Ura! Ura! Ura!

Can anyone suggest a popular scn for a fight? I have HPS NRC, Wagram and Austerlitz. I prefer large battles, but want to do a few skirmishes first to test the waters. And I need time to study the battlefields that all of you have obviously crossed many times. <glancing around at all the shiny brass>

I can partner up Bill if he can't find anyone else. Hopefully one of the Russians is available.

Post subject:  Re: New Russian Recruit

Which scn? And who's your partner? I like to size a man up before smackin him in the chops. On a dare, a man once ran blindfolded into a bar, swinging wildly. It did not end well. :hmmm:

I would like a training maneuver first actually. I have played the old Talonsoft NiR set, but they won't install on Windows 7. I only just opened the new games and need to become familiar with the scenarios I have only ever played AI, except for a disaster vs Gary McClellan where I was taught Cav Warfare in detail. :frenchoops: He's the one who sent me the new games. He's also the one you should send the bill to if I damage any furniture. :wink:

A signature helps to identify you during challenges and just general kibitzing. :frenchvive1:
