    • The (French) Empire Strikes Back

      Napolean revcovers from wounds

      Despite the claims of the treacherous Prussians, General Napolean was only lightly wounded in the Battle of Leige. Remarking that "rummors of my death have been greatly exagerated", the General has returned to the head of his army!

      Prussians Slaughted Across Europe!

      The foolish King of Prussia has learnt that the price of treachery is the blood of his soldiers.

      Fast moving French cavalry corps have struck out at the ponderous Prussian forces outside Munich and have put more then 6 regiments to the sword!
      In addition, the French Army of Holland has advanced deep into Prussian territory and has captured the cities of Hamburg and Frankfurt!
      Meanwhile, the Army of England has easily liquidated the Prussian foothold in Scotland.

      Constantinople Falls!

      The like their Prussian lap dogs, the Russian Government has also been made to pay the price of treachery. After a brief bombardment, the French Army of the Balkans siezed the rubble of Constantinople from Russia.

      Peace signed with Britain

      Following the fall of Gibraltar the British government in exile has agreed to France's peace terms.

              • BERLIN FALLS!!!

                After brushing aside a concentration of Prussian troops outside the city, the French Army of Holland has entered the Prussian capital! It has been revealed that the city was defended by nothing more then a regiment of infantry who proved to be no match for France's massed artillery batteries!

                Fall of Capital Sparks General Prussian Collapse!

                It appears that the fall of Berlin has been a deathblow to the once proud Prussian Army. After the city's fall French forces were able to easily capture Leizpig, and it appears that the garrison of Munich simply disbanded in dispair after hearing the terrible news from the north. The Baden garrison then mopped up the remaining Prussian troops in the area.

                Russian Army Slaughtered

                Hard hitting French cavalry has slaughted the Russian army encamped in the ruins of Thessaloniki. No prisoners were taken during the brief battle.

                    • The Russian army continues it's advance towards the front. The size of Russia is indeed an advantage and disadvantage.

                      *Istanbul Captured by Russian forces.

                      *French Ship of the Line sunk in the North Sea.
