Excellent Phil. The outtakes of the bridge and Lannes added to your AAR. Read from start to finish over morning tea. WR

Hahaha what TMPWargamerabbit said. They bridge and death of Lannes gave me a good laugh on a day when I really needed one. Thanks!

@Ashenduke : thanks a lot, a little humor and fantasy makes feel good sometimes, glad you enjoyed! @Vtsaogames : our "club-rules" might be on the blog before 2013…I'm afraid only in French for the moment! Thanks again for your comments everyone! All the best, Phil.

Great Stuff. What scenario TO&E did you use? I'd like to do the game myself. Thanks Dave ABQ
Phil the french	02 Jan 2013 3:53 a.m. PST
Hi Dave, Thanks a lot, I'd like to answer but…TO&E means…? Phil.
HandLCreator	02 Jan 2013 6:09 a.m. PST
Sorry, the battle order… Thanks
Phil the french	02 Jan 2013 7:15 a.m. PST
Got it! I put them in line to meet your demand. That said, for now I only have the Austrians (since I played this side), I ask the scenario designer the French Battle order and I write it soon I hope. Do not hesitate if you have any questions … The link is at the end of the AAR… Cheers, Phil.
