Orders and reports thread

[_Tristan_]

I am shocked we even allowed this Frenchman into this Empire let alone give him any men to command and now he has the insolence to insult and threaten Duke Arnold? What is this World coming to, in my day we had order and no one stepped out of line lest they wanted a price on their head. It's about time Peter showed some of the tyranny he's famous for before this empire reduces to anarchy.

Duke Bresch,

Most of what I accomplished I did without the support of the Reich armies, check the records...

However, I have gladly and loyally whenever I have been asked to do so whether by Duke Arnold as Chancellor or our own present Chancellor...

As to threats and insolence, it is I who was dragged in the dirt (to say the least) by a Duke so I will ask you what is this world coming to when the powerful do not show the least respect to the generals of the Reich...

I'll be sure to show proper respect where it is due and when it is reciprocal, until then you had better mind your own business...

Dragged into the dirt!! Are you completely mad de Cervole!!

You basically demand that the money you secured be spent the way you want it...I then hold you accountable for something that is totally unacceptable and your response is to question the ability of Austria and her generals and then add insult to injury your next 'concept' is to insult me personally by suggesting that it was my Chancellorship that began Swabia's problems!!

Of course I start swearing and threatening you...any man worth his salt would and should do the same.

To turn around and tell ANOTHER Duke of this Reich to mind his own business simply confirms what an error WE have made in letting you join the Germanic nobility.

Are you a French sympathiser or what de Cervole!!??

I'd ask the Kaiser to censure you at this point for the sake of decency and honour!!

Duke,
I would place the blame for de Corvole's seeming confusion about proper channels or the chain of command on his being French. The problem seems endemic to Swabia. Ever since their Duke has largely retired from Policial life we've seen the Duchy controlled by a mere Count, Ruppel, who has argued with Chancellors regarding funding and military matters for the past two terms. It was only a matter of time before that attitude trickled down even to the mere knights in service to the Reich.

OOC: No offence Tristan or FactionHeir, I know FactionHeir/Ruppel has done all the planning for Swabia because of Warluster's relative absence.
