Here is the opening of the campaign. As Napoleon, you start at the French city of Nice in the lower left corner of the map. The first two moves take you to Cunco and Turin. Once you capture Turin the Piedmonties capitulate and become a protectorate. The supply you with two units and have no farther effect on the game.

You will have to capture (3) Milan and (4) Parma in your next phase. All of these battles are pretty easy and the only thing that slowed me down was waiting for my depleted units to build back up in strength before I could advance again.

This is a test blog.

I am starting up a blog to try to work out some data flow ideas I have with Google services. The basic idea started with gmail, which I like and use a lot. I can read it and download from any of my my computers, my Ipod touch or from the web. So having read blogs for a while now and played around with facebook I think I want to try out some thing a little more industrial strength.

So I started looking at what other services google offers. I have been using docs for a few years, mostly when I was working with Flying Lab Software.

The next interesting thing is Picasa. Picasa is a image sharing service but Google also build a stand alone application that will resize and reformat your pictures and then upload them to the picasa web service, or to a blogger account (another Google service).

So I thought it would be fun to do a blog about something I love, which is computer gaming, and in this case Napoleon Total War.
