From the Heidelberg University archives, as remembered thirty years later by the thoughtful middle Kortig sister, Anna Maier nee Kortig.
I often think back to this time in my adolescent mind, when everything was perfect in...

A suggestion... Have you played Sabre/Guns of Infinity? It is a well thought choose your adventure/text based choice in a flintlock fantasy world. I think it might be quite inspirational for what you want to do.
Concerns and Ideas continued...
2) Not really sure how the Magic System would work. I think this needs to be thought out some more.
3) What is the role of women in your world? Can they become officers? Or can they participate only by cross dressing as male?
4Will there be a home front for the...
@Elekta Kount
I would like to participate. The Napoleonic Wars have interested me in a big way. I would like to play a Cavalry officer for one the countries.
My cons are as follows:
1) The scale is giagantic. Perhaps, you might consider doing a single campaign like Napoleon in Russia or the...

Granville looked longingly at the impishly cute young heiress from New York. Adelaide Findlay reminded him of his favorite quote from a children nursery book that he used to read to his younger cousins from Maurice Sendak, “I’ll eat you up; I love you so.” He was hopeful that...

After driving the carriage into the ditch with poor Miss Rosaline Adler, Captain Granville thought that there might be some other tactics to utilize. Particularly, he should not be quite so aggressive. He reasoned that must get the families to like him first. Thus, he would...

As the ladies went off in the direction of the powder room, Captain Granville said in a barely audible voice, “Yes, of course.” Crestfallen in realizing his mistaken, Granville went over to Herr Adler and Ferdinand and apologized. “Please offer my apologies to Miss Rosaline...

Alfred Granville noticed the Lady Josephine looking at Miss Adler in sort of an inquiring manner. But why?? He had thought that she was out to help Bingo, maybe the tall elegant lady would be helpful to him as well. Perhaps, he had been too bold and put the beautiful American...

Captain Granville nodded and said, “Ah yes, this makes sense.” He then smiled and said “When I was younger as a military courier, I picked up some sign language when trying to communicate with the Royal Artillery. So, I hope that I remembered this right.” He did a gesture...
@Mia Moulop, @Candlebell, @redroseknight
What is the protocol for using NPC like Geoffrey or Herietta?? Basically Alfred Granville is considering befriending Geoffrey
and then influence to come up with some ideas on his own. Hint, Hint, Hint
Alfred Granville
Granville paused for a second. He wasn’t sure if he could tell but it looked like Lady Josephine was aiding his rival: Barnaby Harrington. In short, Harrington aka Bingo was a likable fellow. He had some of the better qualities of a good gentlemen. He was magnanimous...
