The Germanic town on Frankfurt has fallen to Davout’s men.
Napoleon has led an attack on Hannover... that city will be rubble soon... unless it is of use to our English Allies
The road to Cathie, and her Russian swine, is being swept by the Power of the French Sabre and Cannon.
Oh yes, the clerks arrived in Frankfurt, and renamed everything 'Flowers are for peace'
Now who knows what that means, but it will surely incense the Prussians
Spain just snubbed a MPP. Asked for all tech, all gold, everything I had, just so they could rush to my aid... I am now forming the Armee du South. You know where they are going, I just want to touch them, scratch one of their fine cities... into rubble. We will show these Spaniards that we will be a humble ally.
We are traveling through the heart of Prussia now... There will be building materials available here for some time. For example the clerks have come forward and started the Leipzig markets... yes for 2 bob you can take home a cart full of Leipzig...

If faith and friendship, we hand Hannover to the English.
Troops of the Danish garrisons are now on the northern outskirts of Hamburg. We see English cavalry to the south.
We have had our first contact with Cathies slave boys on their wiitttlie ponies
We battle on, the pains of the battle of Hannover linger in the Old Guard. Yet they stay the field, like a rock against a pounding wave.
Many Russian Cossacks are on the field, so be aware... they are like flies
Hamburg is a hard nut to crack... many good men we not be returning to France from this battle.
Strength and Honour
The battle of Berlin drags on, as more French troops draw near, Prussia is finally beatiiing the gates of Berlin shut with Conscript units...
January 1802
Reinforcements have saved Berlin for another day...
Good luck with the battle of Hamburg... I have thrown 12 units to their deaths on this town... 3 more units have arrived to assist.
There is a place to the south east of your city Hannover... It is known by the rather large white obleisk
By the way, if you ever wish to visit the grand concert halls of berlin... then you may have to build them 
Now for a time of Consolidation... Yes Berlin would have been an excellent rest and rec area... 
I have a line of troops all the way from the Atlantic to Posseland
Ahh Posseland will mine soon... Yes Posseland, some craxzed Prussia nightclub area. Napoleon with his Old Guard Cav and 10 other units, including 5 cannon.
Posen... posentown... Pussytown has fallen
My troops have enjoyed some rest in your Hannovering Forests..
January 1803
March 1803
Prussia... it is like the Prelude to Russia
July 1803
Marechal Ney has taken to the field and Rides with 3 heavy Cavalry Regiments to meet with Napoleon for the push into Russia.
Marechal Macdonald is forming the Fourth Carabinier Army at this time, and will be along shortly.
Marechal Massena has quite a mission. He leads multiple units including the grand batterie.. They have a longer journey ahead of them
Hordes of Russian troops are about at the moment, I hope we are not biting off more than we can chew.
November 1803
The consolidation at the Russian border continues, watch for the fires in the eastern skies

To Your Majesty, Maximus, King of all that is British.
Much to report...
The glorious empire of France stands testament to the ways of the future. My homelands are going through a massive building drive. The construction of Hospitals is taking place all over the lands. This will allow my home cites to continue to grow... and thus become stronger power houses..
Today I stand at the gates of St Petersburg. I lead my loved Old Guard Cavalry, along with me are: Marechal Ney and his Cuirassiers, and Generales de Brigade Senarmont's cannon and Calvary elements stand at the gates of St Petersburg. I believe thatthe City of St Petersburg will be my new winter capital in the coming month.
I must admit that Senarmont stands read for promotion to Marechal... His actions, fortitude and overall command of his men has been outstanding. Surely a man worthy of the Gold Baton.
As reported earlier, the city of Novgorod is in ruins.
Marechal Davout has suffered grievous losses in the battle for Staraya, yet the city is ours.
Marechal Macdonald has found himself in the swamps having chased and destroyed 3 elite Russian Guards units there.
Marechal Victor and his forces have brought the people of Staraya into the French fold of life.
Further to the south, Marechal Domon, his mighty Cavalry Army, The Old Guard Grand Batteries, Generales Dixon's Grand Batteries, and various other elements are preparing to lay attack on Polatsk. It is my intention to keep the city of Polatsk.
With the gathering of the Grand Armee, we will allow our troops some rest, before sweeping down upon the stronghold of Moscow. I must admit to being so undecided on this cities fate. My heart would have it in ruins, yet my analytical mind knows that great wealth and resources can be attained from this district. Ah, as you Angles would say: We will cross that bridge when we come to it...
An alliance has been again formed with Gustav. This has seen the Swedes enter the fray against Cathie... Hopefully old Gustav will get to take Helsinki, before I become board with it and level it...
I have dispatched several cavalry Regiments from my Southern Home Army. They are at this time crossing your Milan district. Their orders are to proceed through Austria and scout the Ottoman Empire borders. To this end, I have two frigates in the Med, near your Gibraltar district. They too will be heading over to scout the very waters of the Ottoman. I am intent to watch all avenues of these strange people. To further the bonds between the Ottoman and France, I have entered into a trade agreement for their Dyes. I actually refused to sign the document, and had others see to it. I will keep them at arms length for a while yet.
May your people be well, and your soldiers strong in their faith and their honour,
Napoleon

My dear Emporer Paddy,
we have thought long and hard about the threat posed to both our great nations by the Ottoman empire, which it seems is brooding away down there looking for an opportunity to increase its power and holdings.
As you will remember the Milan crisis was a brief but most worrying time. Hordes of Turkish troops crossed our borders no doubt looking to flex their muscles and pick a fight with someone. I can tell you My cousin Berty and his family who are with the diplomatic core stationed in Milan, were horrified!, and he sent me daily reports of great unrest and fear in the city at that time.
It was only thanks to your swift diplomatic intervention that a disaster was averted on that occasion, but with the demise of Russia now almost complete, I feel it is only a matter of time before we have to face war with these people.
We have devised a plan for a joint attack on the turks if the need should arise, please peruse the charts and tell of your considerations.
Naturally we would wish to leave the situation alone untill we have settled the Spanish war, fighting on two fronts would we fell be very risky at this juncture. Ah best layed plans eh, if only life was so simple.
We deem it would be most advantageous if we could coordinate our forces when this attack commences. We consider the French forces best placed to atack at several points along the Austro/Turkish border, whist we land a massive force outside Istanbul essentially cutting off completely their southern cities preventing them from sending reinforcements from the south.
We hope to be able to capture Istanbul swiftly and to send a large naval fleet into the black sea to begin a blockade of all Turkish ports in the region. We have planty of ships for this task and a great many vessels are already headed for the region as this report is being typed.
we imagine the optimun timing for this operation to be at the start of 1811, 3yrs 6 months frommnow and after the Spanish war.
