The heroic Flashman does not need a bi-sexual punk side kick with a big gun to get him out of trouble........when he has got his Cavalry Whiskers and really tight cherry picker pants!!
Oddly enough after various NPC got shot, invaded etc, etc after they mis-treated diplomats Richard and the game seems to be honouring the idea of "diplomatic immunity".
Though I am not sure how the Czar will react to having his diplomat insulted, humiliated and shoved onto a boat to Nippon (where he got arrested) in the middle of a Typhoon. Plus the concept almost did not last the experience of Bismarck being sent to London !!
PS If Jason ever decides to return as Emperor of the French......the good news is the French have good Rifles etc, the Bad news is that you now have the German Envoy to England running his Embassy from Paris. No doubt drinking dodgy green stuff, chasing Chorus Girls and lowering property prices with his **** Tuba.
Actually with the Prince Imperial of France in exile in Britain and in need of "experience" before he returns to save France from the evils of the Republic perhaps what Flashman needs is a Captain Napoleon side kick to study under the Master? But how the hell would I explain to Queen Victoria that I have lost the Prince Imperial:shock:
