I saw this picture today on FB. I'm guessing it's Austerlitz from the fog? I like it

you would slay in ouji fashion honestly
I don't disagree with you, Anon, but the issue is that the ouji fashion I really like all looks like THIS
it's big black coats and shiny boots and silver buttons and red accents
it's all very well and good if we stay early in the 19th century but sometimes I really like a cleaner line and big blocky shapes, and, well. it's very easy to fly too close to the sun on that one. you remember when that woman told me I'd make a great fascist based on the way I dress? I don't need to be feeding those allegations, no matter how hot I'd look
#anyway this is not the battle of austerlitz#although to be quite honest I don't know exactly how much longer I'll be able to avoid making a spectacle of myself#my friends send me enough 'this u?' memes as it is#askertorte

Le lion est malade…
In late November 1805, a short time before the battle of Austerlitz and after the Grande Armée had already marched into Moravia, Soult for some time suffered from ophtalmia that would still bother him on the day of the battle (he was wearing some sort of visor made from green taffetas in front of his eyes). But for his aides, their master’s ailment during their stay in the comfortable chateau at Austerlitz was not without advantages. As Petiet tells it:
Ever since Marshal Soult's ride across the plains of Pohrlitz and Unterwisterlitz, he had been complaining of ophthalmia, which progressively worsened and became so bad at Austerlitz that he had leeches applied to his temples and no longer left his room. The aide-de-camp on duty was to read to him all the dispatches and Lameth said to us with a laugh: "The lion is ill; that will give us some rest."
Just don't overdo the compassion, Lameth!

Linear warfare except when they run at each other they meet in the middle and start passionately kissing each other on the mouth with tongue

I had so much fun writing the Feldmaschall mothering his Oberst that I will be writing a prequal that’s at least 50% von Ravenmak and Vincent Odinkirk stuck together. :3 This is from Ottoway Vol 2, von Ravenmark was invented to explain how Otto’s older brother is considered and Officer and a gentleman, while Otto is a lower-middle class Private. He also shows that Vincent has a very different relationship to authority than Edwin. Ottoway is Otto-centric so von Ravenmark and Vincent’s relationship could only be explored to the degree that it effects Vincent’s attitude towards Otto within that work.
Ottoway vol 2 is now about 50% drawn up, my goal is to have it ready for release by next remembrance day.

Just came back from watching Napoleon and ugh.
#napoleon#look it started bad and ended badly#i'm on record defending that historical movies don't need to be perfectly accurate but this movie was just...ugh#like just the casting...why in hell is Phoenix playing 20s Napoleon? also my mom asked me if Napoleon died in his 30s which...#it's mostly the casting's fault#ei guys lack of Wellington in this movie. and lack of Portugal's Napoleonic invasion's too#this said i understand why...they happened during the time he was planning the invasion of Russia...but important ok!!#it was not a nice movie no.#weird points for the fact they did not even got the most stereotypical Egyptian fact right. THEY MUMIFIED THEIR DEAD!!#also why in hell did he shot the pyramids? who knows? was it a cool scene? maybe for someone who did not have any idea of anything.#my mom telling me that physically ice doesn't break like that in the scene of the battle of Austerlitz#for some reason they butchered Napoleon's entire relationship with Josephine. also weirdo#there was almost nothing good there#points for how good the customs were. making it easy to distinguish armies in a battlefield is not an easy task

I fell behind for the last four days or so and left Nikolay violently infatuated with his Tsar. Looking forward to catching up with them at the Battle of Austerlitz!

Review: War and Peace - by Leo Tolstoy
‘War and Peace’ needs no introduction. It holds its place in the minds of contemporary society as a literary classic. One cannot pick up a newspaper article on great books without a passing mention of Leo Tolstoy’s masterpiece. Like other classical works such as the Bible, I think that their obvious fame means and their influence on society and heir survival into modern times means that at the…
