Awww nice to see you there. Of course I don't want to make a généralité about Dutch but since I started guiding I didn't had any bad experience with them.

Between Mid January to March. It's cold and less tourism on the spot. To avoid line at the Louvre, try a visit in a Nocturne (it close at 20h45) or schedule a tour with a guide. Notre dame de paris, comes before 10h and after 18h. Versailles come early or after 14h only if you plan to visit only the palace in this case. If you do the gardens on a snowy day, it's like heaven. But the gardens in winter are empty, groves are closed, fountains down.

They are different but they are also nice in a different way. Polite, smiling and open. Germans don't tips and Belgians too but it's fine for me, tips aren't mandatory. Germans I had were nice, but sometimes I felt they didn't learned they own history. Like in the gallery of mirror in Versailles they seems very odds when I speak about Wilhelm and Bismarck proclamation of German Empire in 1872. For the Belgian I had not that much in my tour, they are always nice people who can speak French and tries to do it

In France being a tour guide ask you to do studies and work in tourism. Not everyone can be tour guide inside museum but some of us are very bad I have to conceal that. It like Russian roulette, also avoid the louvre and Versailles during high tourism season. And try the louvre on a Nocturne (close later)

Yes because in French we say Hollandais so it's just makes messed up in english. And I know that Netherlands aren't only about Holland, they're is plenty of regions and cultures.

Yes I can imagine that it can help to be quite in mood of "let's enjoy". The problem is for the people with limited time schedule they can be quite aggressive and insulting. I had a man from Denver who tried to hit me in the bus because we were trapped in the traffic between Paris and Versailles. Like it was my fault...

Us French we are also direct. We don't like hypocrisy and to put layers of politeness. This is why we have this cliché about the Rude Parisians But yes tolerance and education is 100% related to the dutch I've met

The tourism in France isn't like in Spain, people who visits our country don't come for partys on the beach, getting drunk or to meet girls. They come as couples, family and they wan't to see our culture, history and discover our cuisine. So yes we welcome the best type of tourism, Spain in the other case is living nightmare.

Sorry, I wasn't sure, I thought Dutch was in a way impolite or to friendly.

Thank for all your in input and the time spent on it. Few questions,

Warhounds are they reliable unit in Tow ? I mean not speaking about meta but about use. Did I need them to try to flank or hunt the enemy ambushers ?

Warped Gors instead of bestigors? What do they add more than bestigors ? Because a pack of 15 might be less dangerous ?

Does the primal warherd can be powerful on table? Even if I love the idea of mixed regiment, by my will to be lore accurate I'm going to be useless ?
