Re: Blood and Iron
Karl Wagner is a disgruntled middle-aged instructor at the Bundeswehr Command and Staff College. He finds himself concerned about the direction which the German nation is headed in—just as he is killed by a terrorist attack. Only to awaken and find himself reborn as an infant, Bruno von Zehntner, the youngest son of a noble family renowned for its part in the German war industry a few years after the founding of the German Empire. Bruno, as he is now known, desires to rewrite history and ensure the German Empire emerges victorious in the coming century. And in doing so, finds himself entrenched in a world filled with Blood and Iron!
Establishing Relations with the Habsburgs
The feast was prepared well throughout the day, so that the evening time came, food was on the tables, and beer was served in a multitude of glasses of varying sizes. Being a man of culture himself, Bruno would not settle for any cup smaller than a liter.
As the representative of the Kaiser, Bruno was given the honor of sitting with the Habsburg family. However, there were a few generals who he took note of sitting at other tables. All of which wore extravagant uniforms of the latest design. Thanks to Bruno's influence on the timeline, nations had begun adopting earthly tones for their uniforms as far back as the winter of 1904.
Which was around the time the German Army began displaying their signature feldgrau uniforms. The Austro-Hungarians had rather wisely simply copied the German color palette when it came to their new uniforms, even if the uniforms themselves were of their own distinctive cut and style.
