M. LÉON MESSIER'S DISPATCH
​
To a colleague M. Messier commented dryly: One duc for another. If Rovigo was our master's dagger, Bassano was his willing co-conspirator. They are two sides of the same franc: he transmitted the police reports. ​

"My fellow delegates, it is with pride that I say now, that I have, my entire life, voted in opposition to the majority regardless of the matter being voted on. I shall not betray my principles now."

Oh wow, didn't know we had the guy who wrote down Napoleon's stuff for him sitting around. That works even better.

Are castles in the fire.

Should we be concerned that you're quoting Chesterton's Guthrum?

Especially given that it's the start of his monologue about how only war and dealing death can keep misery at bay?

Caught in the fervor of the Jacobin resurgence, one group decides to seize the opportunity and promote their tendency amongst the masses. This is their hastily assembled publication, a publication they hope will be the first of many.


LE MILITARISTE No​.I​

Citoyens Français!

Our enemies are attacking the very soul of our nation! They seek to crush our Revolutionary Spirit and put an end to our glorious Revolution. The passing of our Emperor Napoleon has left us vulnerable, but we must not falter! It is time for us to rise up, united as one, and form a War Coalition that will strike fear into the hearts of those who would dare to oppose us!

As true Jacobins, we make no apologies for our views. We must work now to form a more perfect Grande Militaire, a force that will dominate all others on land and at sea. This is the only way to safeguard the rights of our People and ensure the survival of our France! We cannot let ourselves be caught off guard, for we are now at war, and every day we delay is another day that our enemies abroad increase their advantage!

The War Coalition will be a gathering of the most loyal and dedicated citizens of France, bound together by our unbreakable commitment to defend our homeland and to spread our Revolutionary Ideals across the globe! Our mission is clear - to equip, train, and advance our military. We will provide them with the weapons, supplies, and support they need to emerge victorious from every battle!

Our enemies will tremble as they witness the unstoppable might of our Grande Militaire, a force that they will never be able to match! We will fight with every ounce of strength and determination in our bodies, and we will not rest until every last enemy of France has been defeated and our borders secured! Our victories will be a testament to the power of our Revolution, our Emperor's legacy, and the unyielding will of the French people!

Aux Armes, Citoyens!


It should be noted that the staff of LE MILITARISTE were hand-picked for their ability to appeal across political divides. They selected language intended to bridge divides across Republican and Monarchist lines, while the true supporters of this group were much less... subtle when expressing their personal opinions.
