I would love a Second Empire AAR. Cool period, and it would give us the change to see more about Great Power diplomacy and colonization.

I'd say: Go for it!

...please...

 

[Icecold]

Yes what do you mean by a "second Empire"

Sorry if I'm being stupid

Cheers, Ice

My guess is as much interest as if you said, "how much interest would there be in having 20 nude Swedish young women spend the night at your house?"

But that's just a guess.

Always happy to assist an American in getting a notion (I wouldn't wanna ask for more) of European history....

Just remember, you owe me one. Next time I have a question about the ACW, I'll know how to find you!

If that happens I might just forget what an AAR is for that night

and have a very intresting report for the next day...

Bring it on

I would be excited to read a Second Empire AAR.... come on Dark Knight, let's see how well you can do...

Rather than lose Alsace-Lorraine, maybe you can annex the Saar... France to the Rhine !

 

[Faeelin]

Yes, secure the natural boundaries! The Ebro, the po, the rhine, and the Thames!

I'd be excited.

Well, I'm not the one deciding these things, though I'm glad to see such interest in the time and place.

I'm sure you'll like whatever scenario and country the next AAR is played with.

You are right, IF the French had capitalized on this landing it might not have turned out to be such a disaster. I for one wasn't surprised that they didn't since I don't consider the AI robust enough to be able to pull off combined movements like that with precision. Instead it ended the British presence on the Western Front, which was very disappointing and made it much easier for Sytass.

Two Words: Market Garden.

Of course, in that case it wasn't the French that failed to capitalize on landings in Belgium.
