Gustav Adolf slain by Russian forces !!

Stockholm is expected to fall to Russian forces any day now. Tzar Alexander is very pleased with the progress of Russain troops in the area. This will bring Russia even closer to its friends in the west.

In th Black sea, Russian forces lands near Ankara. The capture of this town is vital for Russian interest in the area.

Sarajevo taken
This month Sarajevo has been liberated from the boot heel of Ottoman opression. With Bucharest surrounded it will surely follow the same path as it's sister city.

[Case]

Kario Falls

Following a brief battle fought near the ancient Pyramids of Giza, troops of the French Army of the Orient have secured Kario. Considerable quantities of loot was taken from the Ottoman government's treasuries.
Following the fall of the city the Ottoman government accepted France's peace terms.

The French government has refused to comment on Ottoman reports that non-French European officers were present during the battle for Kario.

KOBENHAGEN NEAR FALLING!!!

The Dannish capital, with its large influx of german peasents, is near to falling. Initial negotiations between prussian and danish officials failed and the prussian army, after decimating the ill equiped danish army settled into siege opperations. Day and Night shells have been hitting the city from the well sighted prussian artillery. The city is believed to be no more than a month away from falling as the people of kopenhagen feel the pinch of a siege.

GRANADA BACK IN HANDS OF SPANNISH!!!

The prussian ambassador in spain has it on realiable authority that the spannish forces have pushed the british invaders back from the city of Granada which fell last month to the invading brits. A Large contingent of Moors were part of the army which took back the city. Prussian military advisors were seen at the battle but the government denies that they werre there to do anything other than observe...

RUSSIAN TROOPS SPOTTED NEAR STOCKHOLM!!!

In the spirit of co-operation in the Russo-Prussian alliance the prussian frigate 'Fredrick I' helped bombard the city of stockholm which is under siege from the brave russian forces. The frigate popped in fired a few shells at the wall of the city and then retreated out of the reach of the harbour guns after sufering minor damage in return.

Pap, I just emailed you the file

[Pap1723]

British turn happens thanks to Case.
British continue development of their troops, and their economy.
No conquests, or even skirmishes recorded.

[sas]

Russia continues the attack on Stockholm.

[Jimmywax]

Siege drags on
The sige of bucharest now drags on into its third month. The Austrian high command has made assurances that the city will soon fall and prove to be the first domino with the rest of the Balkans following soon after. One general has attributed the lengthy siege to a lack of artillary. Doubtless the light cannon are resting in Sarajevo after their glorious victory there. they will surely be ready within the month and on the road to Bucherest.

[Case]

Plymouth Falls

The British port city of Plymouth has fallen to a combined assault mounted by the French Army and Navy. French reinforcements are currently flooding into the city, thereby bolstering the newly formed 'Army of Cornwall'.

Palmero Taken

The 'Neutral' city of Palmero has also fallen to a combined attack by the French Army and Navy. It is understood that the city was defended by nothing more then the crew of a merchant vessel!

Napoleon Returns to France!

General Napoleon Bonaparte has landed in Provence, and is now en-route to Paris. Speaking to a cheering crowd in Lyon, the General stated that he is looking forward to personally commanding the mighty French armies.

Egypt Transfered To Austria

In accordance with the peace terms negotiated between the French and Austrian Governments, Egypt has been transfered to the Austrian Empire. While much of the 'French Army of the Orient' has returned home, thousands of troops have 'volunteered' to remain in Egypt to continue the fight against the Ottoman menace.

KOBENHAGEN TAKEN BY PRUSSIAN FORCES!!!
Prussian soldiers given rest after hectic months

As predicted last month the Danish city of Kobenhagen fell to the prussian forces seigeing the city on the first day of this month. It seems the people of the city, tired of the relentless bombardment and their own governments annoying habit of not yielding the city, the people of Kobenhagen rose up and opened the gates for their prussian liberators. The prussian army is taking its rest in the city after the last few hectic months.

Spannish forces push back British again!

This month prussian observers sent back a memo which stated that the spannish forces near Cadiz had advanced and had cut off the city. The british forces tried to break out of the encirclement but were slaughtered to a man and thus the city was left empty for the spannish to occupy which they did at the end of the month. This is another setback for the british imperial ambitions and coupled with the invasion of English territory by the French army this month the british situation has worsened.

Hand of Friendship put towards France.

After the invasion of Britain by the French the prussian government sees no further course but to put itself into the good graces of what we see as the new power in europe. While it galls us to offer this to a government which doesnt recognize the rights of a king it is the only thing left for this country to do. Our King Fredrich Willhelm III has offered to meet Napoleon in Paris itself to discuss the terms of friendship.

Thanks for the reminder Case, somehow i missed Pap's post.
--------------

The Tzar announced today two great victories:

*The Russian Army captures Stockholm.

*The Russian Army captures Ankara.

[Jimmywax]

Not much time so here is the run down. Bucharest still under siege, Jaffa bombarded by Prinze Eugene, and some nice shiny cities in a little place called Egypt have turned over to me. Also, I am now at war with the nuetrals and will be joining the French in their conquest of Munich.

Now back to my research paper.

[Case]

France Destroys Britain, Spain and Bavaria!

The French Flag now flys over the cities of London, Madrid and Munich. In addtion, all of England and Wales now lies under French control.

England Falls To Dual French Invasion

Following the sucess of last months landings at Plymouth, French forces based in the Low Countries have struck across the Channel and captured London.
Despite the odds stacked against them, London's defenders refused to surrender, and managed to sink several ships of the line and slaughter several regiments of Dragoons before being overwealmed by the French Army of England.

Once London was secured, French forces swiftly fanned out into the countryside and secured the lightly defended cities of Bristol, Birmingham and Manchester.

Madrid Falls

The great news from Britain has sparked the French Army of the Pyrennes into action. Upon the first reports of the fall of London, several regiments of cannon supported by a large body of dragoons (including the elite Horse Guards) set out on the road to Madrid. The great city fell after a lengthy barrage and repeated assaults by Dragoons.

Munich Taken

Following the great victories in Spain and Britian, General Napoleon has personally led an assault on the Bavarian city of Munich. Like Madrid, Munich fell after a heavy artillery barrage and several attacks by French Dragoons.
The people of Bavaria have warmly welcomed the French armies and thousands of young Bavarian men have volunteered for service with the mighty French army!

[sas]

Allthough Russia considers itself a close friend of France, the Tzar is somewhat uneasy about the French aggression towards it's neighbours.

[Grothgar]

Amazingly nothing happened this turn for the prussians, well apart from gazing at the french possesions in envy

Im attaching the save but i will also send it to pap because of his problems with this server

[Grothgar]

And the map, a lot of its a nice shade of blue

[Case]

Pap, it's your turn in this as well

[Darius871]

He left another one and is missing in three or so... said it was because of finals and whatnot. I don't think he'll be here for awhile.

I can take it if you want to get this rolling, since it seems the British aren't going to be doing much right now anyway.
