Economic changes suggested by the Duke of Anjou have led to outbreaks of disorder in some of the Dutch towns. It is believed that that the Duke's position is becoming increasingly threatened by the internal politics of the Netherlands and a new Sovereign may soon be approached to offer protection and guidance to the Dutch people.

The Duke of Iron's troops were bombarded but suffered few casulties, the bombardment being seen as a token act of war.

The League are also considering a change of leadership, at least military leadership...

News From The French Front

Another Enemy Offensive Defeated

Tours

Even after its numerous defeats, The French League continues its unending campaign of aggression. The French Citizens of Tours awoke today to find yet another League force on their doorstep:

Although defeating League Soldiers requires only mild exertion. (they aren't the best soldiers) the French were irritated that they would be forced into this chore AGAIN.

So we had two major battles near Tours:

The Forest

Bombardment reduced the strength of the enemy drastically. Following the artillery barrage, French Riders and Landsknecht charged the enemy position. We recaptured enemy bombards (5) for the zillionth time.


5/5 Rider (2/5) vs 4/6 Rider (*Bombarded *)
3/3 Landsknecht (1/3) vs 2/5 Landsknecht (*Bombarded*)

The Fort

The captured bombards were put to good use against the enemy. After the light barrage, the enemy was routed. Stay away from our fort!

5/5 Rider (1/5) vs 3/3 Musketman
3/3 Lansknecht (1/3) vs 2/5 Lansknecht (*Bombarded*)

Sometimes Aggression Is The Answer

Blois

Let me preface this by saying that the French are not an aggressive people at heart. We would have been content after taking Nantes and The Southern Coast in order to secure France. The League's numerous attacks however, have crosses the line and cannot be tolerated.
We shall dine in Paris very soon O Traitors to the French People.

Our counterattack has started this year with a minor battle and defeat for the League at Blois. We lost a Landsknecht but the city was taken by our weakened Army.
