If no one else volunteers I'll through my hat into the ring for Pakenham. But if anyone else fancies it, by all means step forward

If no one else wants it, I don't mind being Sir Edward Packenham.
Maybe Bill P would like to volunteer for the job seeing as he's painted one of the brigade's.
Would be a good idea to know our full orbat first though.
Ray.
1 division plus 2 additional brigades, some spare highland battalions, a pair of batteries and assorted riflemen for flavour
And thats just what I'm bringing.
Happy to let you take the blam... err command though Ray
Bill.

No Bill I'm happy for you to wear the Sombrero
it's been a while since I've played R2E anyway.
Cheers,
Ray.
Ray, having seen a certain gentleman's reinforcement sheet at a previous game, I'm sure the invisible ink will appear again if required
Think Bill should have a crack at the Head Honcho seeing as the Portuguese are his( Makes it easier to blame him if things go pearshaped!!! Absolutely nothing to do with him having painted hunners for this game
Oh and while we're on the subject I'll have a two scoop with rasp sauce and sprinkles!!!
Cheers
Gerry
You may call it sarcasm........I, on the other hand, prefer to refer to it as a humorous observation!!!

Looks like I am on the hook for Pakenham then.
Anybody have a pistol and bottle of whisky for the inevitable?

Yes indeed but there is no use shouting ANDY JACKSON at him because it was all in his future and would mean nothing!
