Bleeding eyes... Does that mean it's my turn?
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

First Maxim - "There are only two amounts, too few and enough."
First Corollary - "You cannot have too many soldiers, only too few supplies."
Second Maxim - "Be willing to exchange a bad idea for a good one."
Second Corollary - "You can only be wrong or agree with me."

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

Actually, I was just joking.  It's grumbler's turn, not mine.  Both Turkey and Prussia have cards left.

Prussia/Turkey is up for their last cards.

Will do this when I get home tonight.

Prussia raises the Landwehr in Koenigsburg, Turks play scarce supply.

France loses 3 units in Paris and 4 in Genoa; Russia loses 10 in Milan (but needs them at home anyway).

Spain/Sweden/Denmark are cardless.

Britain has a preempt opportunity.

France plays a 2 CP card.

1 CP used to send Napoleon into a rather unsuccessful siege against Grodno.

The second CP sent Lannes and 4 CUs to Zurich where Kutusov and his remaining army passed their interception.  Off to Viking to decide whether he wants to take the fight or not.  The battle would currently be 8 vs. 13 in Russia's favor.

Sending a file out to show the situation, just in case.

Man, I sure hope he would. You don't get those odds against the French very often.

I  Might as well fight. I'll roll the dice.

Battle of Zurich
France loses 4 CU Russia loses nothing!.

When my turn comes around again I'll be seriously considering chucking a resource for a card.

And I'd like to point out that I'm closer to paris than napoleon is to moscow, plus nappy needs to take st petersburg as well. This would be the second time Lannes loses his entire army to Russians, it seems to have become a bit of a habit.

Plus I'd keep the minimum amount of leaders with Kutuzov in the alps. I'd leave a CU in the alps rather than a leader so swap konstantin with a CU.

Just keep an eye on Davout - your interception left a path east for him. Which was still the right move, IMO, but just be aware of it.

My plan is to have nappy miss the remaining assaults on grodno.
