Over time, things looked very bad for the English as we waited for these reinforcements to arrive and end the conflict in our favor.
When non-military representatives finally arrived from Louis XV, we were told a treaty had been arranged with George III and peace existed between the French and the English leaving us on our own.
Fuck the French.

Reminds me of Magua's reaction to the French General Montcalm granting generous surrender terms to the English in "Last Of The Mohicans" starring Daniel Day Lewis.
