I am posting comments on how to play the Austrians over in the Coalition Forum. Please make your way over there to comment or ask questions on tips on how to beat the French in each of the scenarios offered in the Marengo Challenge. |

John, the Austrian Army in this period utilized two formal languages of command (German and Magyar), as well as several other informally (Czech, Slovak, Rumanian, Ukrainian/Ruthenian, Italian, and Croat at the least-am I forgetting Dutch and Flemish?). So it is much more difficult than simply doing the Waterloo shuffle. |

John - en Francais? - "Nous nous rendons" I think is correct - using the Indicative mood here .... but David Guegan or one of our French speaking members can correct me (please) We accept your surrender ... challenge over!
