Napoleonic campaign

Sounds good to me, the Prussian forces have been reorganising since their 1806 defeat by the French and despite Napolean's demands that 20,000 prussians join la grande armee, agreements between the french and prussians are highly strained.

A new type of officer has begun to emerge in the prussian army raised from the middle classes and trained at the new military academy set up by scharnhorst.

Recently graduated having fought with Blucher at lubek, Major General Von Kraft has been given charge of elements of the newly formed army corps and is keen to restore the glory of the mighty prussian empire, should that mean raising his sword to remove the head of a pompous french count, Von Kraft is more than ready to do his duty in the name of Prussia and his majesty Willheim III.

Eager and ambitious to earn a name for himself, Von Kraft cares little for the men in his service, many of the newly raised infantry reserve are poorly equipped and trained, however he has higher regard for elements of the 8th guard regiment and the queens first dragoons, both of which have been attached to his command and will undoubtedly serve him (and the glorious prussian empire) well in the battles to come.

There's an opportunity for the Ottoman Turks to get involved too (if anyone has such a force) with wars against Russia and Britain around this time.

The barbary pirates could be a pulp force and an interesting mercenary force in medium sized games. We have the Arabic forces/ Ruga Ruga etc for MWWBK that we could use.

Hate to say it but I have a ready painted (large) army that we could use for barbary pirates.

The Austrians are keen to avenge a number of humiliating defeats at the hands of the french. I have some 1/700 frigates from skytrex that Dave is welcome to use. They havent seen any action for many a year!

Sounds good.

Myself and Bryan are having a pulp game to kick off the campaign for those interested in joining in.

I would be interested in joining as long as i dont get covid pinged for the 3rd time! 😀

Yes, definintely

Not going to make it this Sunday, otherwise would have been up for this.

Would still like to join rest of campaign if possible though.

Yes please up for this.

Mitch, no problem. People won't be around for every game. We'll try to keep it lose so we can game without everyone present all the time.
