Monsieur le Général de Brigade Alan Sharif, <salute>

​It is with a mixture of profound Hochachtung (deep respect) and slight apprehension that I receive the news of your promotion.

​As we are currently locked in the heat of the battle of Abensberg, I must confess: it was already difficult enough to maneuver against a Colonel of the 95th; to now face a General makes my tactical situation even more precarious!

​It is a privilege to cross swords with an officer who combines such tactical skill with true Ritterlichkeit (chivalry). Our correspondence has been the highlight of this campaign.

​Wear your new sash with pride, Mon Général. But be warned: the Austrian whitecoats will not salute you with blanks when I send the next turn file!

​Herzlichen Glückwunsch! (Heartfelt congratulations!)

​Your servant and adversary,

Général de Brigade Sharif

Alan,

A most well deserved promotion, to such a fine officer of La Grande Armée & the Club! It is great to see you continue to rise in the ranks of La Grande Armée and also see all the games you play! Set a fine example for all the new recruits.

Drinks & food are most certainly on Général Morgan!
