*cough* I thought he might be up to a little self-aggrandizement. Thank you for confirming.
Fritz, it's nice that you managed to get a small body of troops that close, I'm sure it's great for propaganda, but they were never actually a threat according to any of my reading. You're not exactly "the Turks before Vienna."
