Congraulations yet again 
Thank you for your warnings. My country is alive with troop movements, and I have a two ready forces in reserve for any incursions into my homelands.
My scouts at Chopping Block Fort can see a stack of Sipahi. Marechal Harvard and XXX Corp Cav have been dispatched. One stack of 7 have been destroyed, just to highlight a further stack of 12 more. I have thus dispatched Marechal Davout's Cuirasiers. Unfortuanately the Ottomen may escape into the heartlands of Austria.
These may make it into France, but the cost for the Ottoman will be high.
Closer to Mostar, two smaller stacks of Sipahi have been spotted. These have been planted back into the soil, expect good crops here in the coming years.
With these victories came further insight onlong the coast near Mostar. Five stacks of Janissary have been spotted. One of 12, one of 8, others of 3 and 2...
I do believe that they are bypassing Chopping Block Fort, heading for our Homelands, the Ottoman will pay, as my units have been able to manouvre out very comfortably.
The battle of Dnepropetrovsk has begun. I will bombard this city for a few turns before moving my men in.
The Battle of Chisinau has begun. The battaries of the Guard have opened up like that sound of thunder. This battle raged for most of the day, before the city lay in ruins.
Here Napoleon swung the Old Guard on to Odessa. Marechal Ney took this challenge and leapt at Odessa. With the help of the Old Guard Cuirassiers Odessa is also a smoking pile of rubble.
With these two cities smashed, Napoleon is turning his two stacks towards Chopping Block Fort. This will leave Kriyvyyth Rith standing. But brings a consolidation of French forces.
Vienna stands strong, like a pillar in a mist of blood. Although I have sustained massive losses in this endeavour, I would do it again. For I believe that this battle has drawn many of the Austrian forces to this one point. Thus allowing my troops in other quadrants greater flexibility.
Some trajic news. The Swedes have left St Petersburg in ruins. It must have been a wild battle.
Further Battles with the Swede are taking place in Oslo, and in the Baltic.
Along with the riots in these Northern Towns, I have some tough decisions ahead.

Congraulations yet again. Istanbul, the great cross roads of the world.
Good luck with Venice. And may your battle in Zagreb be quick.
The battle of Dnepropetrovsk continues. the bombardment must be causing trouble for those locked within. A few more turns yet before moving my men in. 5 cannon and 2 Grand batteries can do a fair amount of damage.
Napoleon and the Old Guard are heading back to Chopping Block Fort. On this journey the came across 11 Sekan in the mountains. Here the Old Guard Grand batteries opened up and reduced these numbers quite severely.
Then Marechal Lauriston and The Old Guard took to that Mountain bastion.
Next Marechal Victors IX Corp Cav stormed the mountain.
The Sekan had little hope really.
In an unlikely move, Napoleon and the Old Guard Cuirassiers rode off to deal with a stack of Janissary.
Marechal Ney, every the rash one, seeing his Emperor on the hunt, let loose his Cavalry Corp, and they too joined the hunt in the fields east of Chopping Block Fort.
Not to be out done, and ever knowing his Emperors heart, Marechal Macdonald and his mighty Carabiniers charged into the melle on the fields.
Long would the Ottoman rue the day the Grand Armee of France marched into his lands.
To the North of the Fort, Marechal Davout is throughing units against the Janissary stacks.
Marechal Harvard and XXX Corps are in a dangerous position. They are surround by three stacks of 21 Jannisary. Now would be the time for Marechal U.Scratched Foot XII Corp to come over the mountain... The blood lust of the cavalry can be an amazing thing, and once again it shows that cavalry should not operate far from the reaches of infantry.
Marechal Davout could march up into to these hils, but will that be enough, or will we lose two of Frances Marechals in this manner. One for all and all for one. The live or die together.
Vienna is once again a blood bath.
