So, I am a serving member of the British Army (infantry officer) and felt that since you did such an amazing job clearly researching the military, you may appreciate to know a few slight errors that would go a way towards adding greater realism to any further endeavours? (which I hope there are many!) There were a few words, terms, labels etc that you used I thought you might like to know? Thank you!

Chris James Al,

I greatly appreciate your review and you taking the time to point out some minor issues. I must admit, I do fall back on the “It’s set 45 years in the future” excuse, but you make fair comments nevertheless, and I’ll be looking out for them in future instalments. Funnily enough, in 1984 only a broken leg in a motorbike accident stopped me going to Sutton Coalfield to begin my basic training before joining the Engineers. A couple of my mates when on to join the Coldstream Guards, but that injury put paid to any future in the British Army for me.(less)

Chris are we meant too start with "Repulse Europe at War" and then the 4 soon to be 5 volumes of the "Repulse Chronicles?" I am coming in cold but the subject matter interests me and as a great fan of WWIII fiction anyway I decided that my next foray would involve the obvious enemy. I began this genre as I expect many of us did with Red Storm Rising" when there was only one enemy. So what is the best order Chris?

Thanks for asking. Start at Book One, Onslaught and go from there. The original "Repulse Europe at War" is not strictly part of the Repulse Chronicles series, it is a history of this war written about 30 years after the war ended. The Repulse Chronicles series tells the story of the 2062-2064 war as it actually happened.
Hope this helps and many thanks for reading!
Best regards,
Chris(less)

Happy Easter… kind of

I’ve been insisting for a few years now that we are living in the Age of Stupid, but I think I might have been too generous, too gentle, with that title. After what the Orange Shit-Gibbon posted online today, it is undeniably clear now that the most powerful and richest human beings in the world are also the most despicable, living their gilded lives completely outside the laws and moral norms mos
