If you win sir I'll say, 'well played, thoroughly deserved."
You'll hate that.

@contenchess saidAre you familiar with the Waterloo Gambit?
1.e4...e6
The French Defense.
Very fitting since Ghost is a Brit.
Naval Battle has been authorized.
@ghost-of-a-duke saidThe actual numbers excluding the Wavre affaire: Blücher and Wellington, with about 140,000 allied troops, beat Napoleon, commanding about 72,000 Frenchmen. The Prussians alone had far more men engaged in the battle, and suffered more casualties than Wellington’s British.

Hardly anything to write home about Watson 🙄

@contenchess saidWellington sir was a dynamic tactician. Waterloo may have been a defensive victory but his earlier victories amply demonstrate his ability as an offensive general.
