Shouldn't that post be in the Ferdinand of Brunswick thread?

Does it refer to Gaynor?

UMPIRE ANNOUNCEMENT

The sides will be as follows:

Representing the Raja of Felpuri
Your completely neutral umpire, Henry 'Battleeditor' Hyde, commanding the irregular and semi-automated forces of Felpuri

His noble Allies, secured by way of treasure and trade concessions to help defend Felpuri:
The Margraviate of Hess, Commanded by Maréchal de Camp le Duc du Flappe, Peter 'Purps' Mark-Smith
Die Prunkländische Ostindische Kompanie, Commanded by Generalmajor von Hauptzeige, Simon 'Goat major' Tonkiss
The Grand Duchy of Medetia, Commanded by General Amore, Dave 'World2Dave' Hall
The Burgraviate of Altefritzenburg, Commanded by Oberstgeneral Seamus Gunter von Donovan, Andy 'Count Belisarius' McMaster

Their greedy opponents, proxies in the pay of the apoplectic King Raoul of Grenouisse, who will have his revenge in this life or the next:
The Duchy of St Paulin, Commanded by General von Slivovitz, Gary 'GaryP' Phillips (C-in-C)*
The Gateway Alliance, Commanded by General Leigh-Pickled, Iain 'Essex Boy' Burt (2-in-C)
The Sovereign State of Jalisco, Commanded by Viscount Gascoigne of Gateshead, Ken 'MarshallNey' McGarry
The Electorate of Schwitz, Commanded by Elektor Jamacicus Oberberg, Jamie 'Jamanicus' Tattersall
Albion, Commanded by Lord Godfrey Oswald Derby Strewth, Jeremy 'Jeremy' Short
Aytonia, Commanded by Lord Peeler, Mark 'Peeler' Phillips

* Some might legitimately wonder how, after the debacle of the last campaign, von Slivovitz has managed to retain command of the forces representing King Raoul. Let's just say that it could be the case that the former has certain information concerning the private life of the latter that he would prefer to remain private. It would even appear that the financial grant made to St Paulin has mysteriously increased, judging by the size of the army currently embarking on transports.

NOTE TO PLAYERS: more detailed emails/maps will follow as soon as I get the time, plus the finalised spreadsheets pertaining to your own side. there have been some updates since the last one I sent out.

As mentioned in my last email to you, players on the same side may chat amongst themselves BUT copy me in to all correspondence.

Oh, and in case you're wondering, Felpuri is the province of northern Dahlia that has a border with Chindrastan.

Edited to remove EB's identical twin brother.

very exciting!

Jamie gets to use the Holger Erikksons then ? lucky bugger!

Does that mean I get EB and his twin brother on my side? Oh joy!

Not necessarily. I've called Jamie's force Schwitz as it has red coats –– if he cares to choose another name, then he is free (and, in fact, encouraged) to do so.

My twin brother is VB.

Great stuff! Purps has to make all the dice rolls for all of his commanders!

I’ve never fought with the Gateway Alliance, only ever against it. Should I be worried?

just position your commander to avoid being trampled in the rout
