but, can't get to him, finally after a lot of years of waiting, I got a fleet, well, more like 3 Fleets
so had a battle off the southwestern part of France which allowed me to join my fleets, and then they move up the coast and into port in Flanders
I am able to move my Army Young Guards (nothing great, a 19 Div army with 1 or 2 Rifle Divs and a Guard Div, but it does have 2 Heavy Arty) and my Saxony Army (10 Divs, made up of Troops from Holland and Saxony)
I am able to remove one Corps from YG's and load it into a small Fleet, YG's goes into another Fleet and the 3rd Fleet is able to load the other Army
the landing comes as a shock to the English, and they are slow in responding, but by the time there Army is in place, my troops have all landed
602,000 English battle 242,000 French
the Gods of War are a fickle bunch, after prefect weather during the crossing, and giving me a great battle field to deploy in, it is raining, for 6 or 7 hours it rains, my edge in firepower is worthless, and my 8 Divs of Cav, have to hold there place, as they watch broken units stream by to either side
then around 2 o clock, the clouds part and the sun comes out, to watch the slaughter
Heavy Arty slams into the distant columns and lines of troops, arty and Horse arty adds to the din
the south and middle are soon a broken mess, but the north is still strong, and the English make a determined push into my flank, one French Div breaks, but the rest of the line holds, some quick movement and the reservse are in place, the line holds
senseing that the battle is about over, that the English have taken as much as they can take, the order is sounded to unleash the Cav, at the sight of the French horsemen, roaring down the hills and though the forests, is enough and the English have had there fill and the battle is over but for the slaughter
14 Divs surrender this day, 61,000 English pay the price
the It Army is on the way to Flanders, it will move across the channel in another month, and finish the war in England
