My Intent for this Blog

As a University/College Lecturer, who has previously taught in Secondary schools, I ride an emotional roller-coaster on a daily basis. I have decided to post photos or videos here, anything which moves me in some way. In my opinion; music, film, books... they should all evoke emotion of some sort, otherwise they are transient and pointless.

Total War - Napoleon



How better to wind down for the weekend than with a spot of Total War? Napoleon is my favourite iteration of the franchise followed by Medieval. I wasn't very taken with Rome or Shogun. The interfaces were cluttered and unintuitive for me. Napoleon though, besides allowing me to conquer Europe on several occasion, also compelled me to buy Robert Harvey's "War of Wars", out of which Marshall Ney emerges as the real hero and ultimate warrior rather than Napoleon. Of course the French people rewarded his military endeavours by shooting him as a traitor.
