Thanks for that - and the other articles on your site.

Incidentally, one of your commenters mentioned Campaigns on the Danube - there a forum for that here on Matrix - the game is enjoyable - see some of the AARs by Rasputitsa.

Looks like spam to me. Even though it is on topic, and hidden as a helpful message.

Edit: I mean the previous post, and has nothing against the original message. I rather liked to be informed about that article. Thank you.

So A is probably true as well. And that is scary.

Don't forget infiltration principles! (Think the German 1918 offensives).
