N'empêche que les clichés ont la vie dure !

Heureusement que tu joues pas à C&C ou à un FPS, tu serais un peu mal pour le clicfest !!
Une chute en ski ou patins ? Très bon rétablissement en tout cas, j'espère que ça va aller mieux rapidement :)

J'ai fais des études sur la guerre de la Conquête, et il était hors de question pour moi d'aller travailler dans une université québécoise, pour les raisons que je viens de mentionner.

Pretty interesting discussion indeed!

Overall, a nice little scenario. I'm not very familiar with the AWI, so I tried to go for the most obvious/functional strategy: strike hard and fast, don't let the enemy gang up on you, keep your forces together as much as possible, and cut a clear line between the northern and the southern theatre ...

November 1777. I thought Philadelphia safe from any attack, apparently I was wrong. Anyway, all the rebels got out of this late try was another draw, which hopefully will quiet them for the winter. http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/3259/36512887qw0.jpg http://img3.imageshack.us/img3/36512887qw0.jpg/1/...

September 1777. Grey's army managed to join Clinton's besieged garrison, then clashed with Wayne's army in an effort to break off the siege. The result was a great victory of our arms, as Philadelphia is now free from the sight of any rebel. I am however sending Grey out after Washington, who moved...

August 1777. The State of British affairs looks pretty good. So far, everything went according to plans.

July 1777. Howe's raid on Reading before moving north was a success, and allowed some air to Clinton for the time being. On his way to New York, he then met with a detachment of the American main army, only scratching it but doing enough none the less to scare the rebels away from New York this mon...

June 1777. The American army appeared in Morristown. Although I know neither who the man in command is nor what the shape of his troops is, I can not run the risk to have New York taken. Right now, the city is only defended by Skinner and one regular regiment. Luckily, Howe's coup-de-main was a suc...

Carnium and Arsan's idea sounds wise and a good middle ground. It makes more sense to have companies of fresh recruits sent to the colonies to fill up the depleted ranks of veteran regular units. And it is also perfectly historicaly correct too. I don't have it at hand right now, but the French camp...
