Journal Entry #10

Today was the last day of the Battle. Napoleon has finally cashed in and is on his way back to France. My battle tactic of using Napoleons own tactics against him worked out flawlessly because he never expected anyone to do that. This victory did come at a cost though, as 23,000 of my finest men are missing or dead. Myself and all that is left of my army are now on our way home. This victory was very crucial to me as it will hopefully make up for all the unsuccessful missions I was in command of. Napoleon will likely be exiled once again which I hope means I will have no major enemy thirsting for revenge.

Yes, it has finally happened! Napoleon has fallen for the trap and my men are getting point blank shots of musketry on his. But again, both our armies are falling because Napoleon has caught on. Sorry for the lack of updates lately, I have been wounded in the battle that I am currently commanding one side of.

Napoleon has started advancing towards my own camp now. He has not reached the trap yet but both our forces have taken a beating from not only the battle at Ligney but the few hits back and forth during the night.  I have made sure that the Town of Waterloo is evacuated in case this gets ugly. We must act fast though because Napoleon is slowly getting more men to fight for his cause.

Journal Entry #7

As I should have seen coming, Napoleon did not follow Blücher directly. With Napoleon's great mind that I have studied, I should have known he would know it would have been foolish for him to do what I had hoped for. But what he does not know is that I have positioned a portion of my army behind the two hills that separate us and him. I plan on using Napoleon's on reverse slope defense against him and hopefully he's arrogant enough to fall into the trap.
