Portugal has been completely annexed. The British army has withdrawn and left the cleanup job with the British civil service. Three Full Regiment's from Barnard's division have been placed in the Castilian Military Academy to assume the defensive duties of the Peninsula. Barnard has boarded the Brittania to sail home. Wellington, Picton, and Fraser have marched their armies towards Castile to follow Barnard home. The English military academy continues to pour out fresh regiments of Line Infantry as ordered.

Denmark has declared war. For the last time! The King has ordered me to crush the Danes once and for all. Toward that end, I have ordered the recruitment of two new officers for our military from the academies in Castile and England. These officers will take advantage of the new Advanced Officer Training research just completed by the Royal Academy. I have ordered the Academy to move on to researching Advanced Cavalry techniques.

Picton has been restored to full strength after his losses in Portugal and has boarded the fleet with Wellington and Fraser. Barnard has already sailed into the North Atlantic. As they left, they helped train the new staff for a Basic Barracks just placed under construction in Castile.

Denmark has sent a token force into Norway. Since it lacked local garrisons, it fell immediately. There will soon be justice, have no doubt about that. The new Barracks in Castile is complete and the fleet continues to sail home. It is only a matter of time now.

France has invaded our friends in Hannover and begun a lengthy siege. This does not bode well. Our new officers have completed their training; a Colonel Calder in England and a Colonel Somerset in Castile. Barnard has disembarked from the Brittania to take up quarters in the Academy. Moore and Calder have each taken four regiments of Line Infantry under their command and boarded the HMS Agamemnon and HMS Britannia. Together with the HMS Leviathan, they will form the new Amphibious Assault Squadron.

The French annexation of Hannover continues, albeit at a snail's pace. They have diverted their home divisions to assist in the process. The new Amphibious Assault Squadron has sailed into the North Sea and has orders to sail on to Norway. Wellington and Fraser have unloaded their damaged divisions in England for rest and recovery.

The French annexation of Hannover continues, albeit at a snail's pace. Then again, everything in France is done at a snail's pace. Hell, those disgusting dogs eat snails, what do you expect? Wellington has assumed command of 4 fresh regiments of Line Infantry and boarded the HMS Victory. I am sending him to Norway to provide any assistance that may be required. The remains of Barnard's light infantry regiment was disbanded due to lack of utility. Our invasion force reports they have entered the Norwegian Sea are preparing to land.
