Might be a problem, we already have a NW event. Though I might ask our NW regulars if they would mind doing a 'switch' to North And South if we can get a solid rule set up.

Monday is out as that line battle is finally start to pick up!
I meant ill have time to sit down and go over some rules. Ill hit you up on steam chat when i get home one night this weekend.

We got our own NW event at 8PM EST tonight. If the numbers are good, goons will be Cavalry.

Also, still not certain on GCG and their line battle but I've started to work on our own N&S event rules. Have a look at what I've thrown together so far and give me your thoughts.

gotta make that public.

So I played pubbie in the Saturday event for Rome at War. The numbers were about 30 per side, which since it's a melee mod leads to short rounds. If we can get into an event it might be worth a try just because the rounds are so short. It was 4 rounds per map with the factions rotating and teams getting reassigned for each map.

The standard order of battle seems to be as such:

1. Organize into lines
2. Maneuver into position
3. Skirmish about 50 feet from the enemy, where there's a lot of taunting on both sides (my favorite part)
4. Ram your Gallic troop into the front of the enemy phalanx like a dumbass.

There were a lot of spergy intricate rules that the admins didn't really enforce that closely since they seem to realize that in the end battles take like 30 seconds to resolve.

Im all in on this poo poo.

I used to do line battles in one of the Prussian units (1st EPI). Wouldn't mind doing some with you guys, but I'm a bit rusty. How is that new patch for Napoleonic Wars anyway?

Same old poo poo. Im itching for more melee and shenanigans in general. Nurdbot has been saying it all along, but man this community is toxic.

We'll probably get into BC when we find one we like, which is basically one that doesn't use the RaW "fraction of a regiment" rules for specialist classes. There's an EU one on Thursdays that fits the bill but we just started attending a NW event at that same time. The Thursday NW event actually seems decently run from what I saw so we're probably sticking to it.

We'll wait and see if more people step up and make BC events.

Is there an open night in our schedule where we can host one?

Steam groups automatically adjust event times to your local machine, yes? As in today's line battle is at 5:00 PM Pacific?

If that's the case I'll be bringing the fight clubbers, that should add 3-4 more bodies.
