Gentlemen, I've posted this here so that those of you that haven't been watching the Gamers Forum will know that we're now up and running.

There's a whole mess of stuff behind the cut belong, it's laid out rather more elegantly on the Gamers Forum, which you'll find here.

( First Turn )

Sorry about the rejigging, but I found a better battalion organisation table and realised that the table I'd been working off only listed the battalion bayonet strength (fighting men) rather than its actual strength.

So as well as the officers listed below, the following additions are being made to the battalion.

Senior Major (the late Major Gates)
Major
Adjutant
Surgeon
2 assistant surgeons (one of whom died on the voyage to Spain, Ensign Hanson is filling in for him)
Quartermaster
Sergeant Major
Staff sergents paymaster
Sergeant armourer
Drum major
Corporal pioneer
10 pioneers

Also does anybody have an email address for Mr. Furious?

Officers wishing to further their education as soldiers and as gentlemen may wish to peruse the contents or arrange to borrow some of the volumes within.

It would be appreciated if officers who have libraries of their own would extend similar hospitality to their mess mates.

I remain, your obedient servant,

Sir. Julian West, KB.

Gentlemen,

Since the Gamers Forum is down, I don't know for how long, I thought I'd get things rolling here.

Unfortunately, because most of the characters, etc were stored in my inbox on gamers, those of you who have emailed me characters are out of luck, could you mail them again?

Could you also please let anybody who mightn't be on my friends list know about this page.

I'd like to get the full roster up and running over the next week so that we can begin play by next thursday or friday.

I remain, as always, your obedient servant,

Sir Julian West, KB.
