I think there should be some rule about not having to be in a strict line when in contact with the enemy, that shits just too deadly.

This is tangenially Blood and Iron related, its a guy with his Chassepot needle rifle. Look at that loving bayonet!

We've actually taken a week off from the regularly scheduled standing still and getting killed, we'll be back to normal on monday though I believe

Yeah, both the admins were playing on their side too. American siege tonight should be good though. Man sieges can be so fun.

I recommend our clan tag for Rome at War is S.P.R.G or Pontius Pilate and the Crucifiers.

S.P.R.G is fantastic.

- We are terrible at melee combat. Maybe when the encumbrance system is switched on we can all be peltasts and lead a merry chase away from heavy infantry.

Playing with the encumbrance enabled last patch it was very noticeable, I think we'd fair better as light hoplites being able to dance in and out.

You can't ditch your armour and run faster in Bello Civili, we need to find a new gimmick.

The lack of manoeuvre here is right on form, our gimmick'll tear these guys open just like RaW. I'm relieved we're useful again.

Hey guys I organized this thing in crpg. It's our take on a line battle.

40 mins is asking a bit too much now

Charging? Don't be silly. Nobody is going to leave the trench in the first place. Trench snipe-fest ahoy, it'll be all the worst parts of Blood and Iron.

Goons, I have come here to ask for all your favourite historical single-player mods for Warband. I'm currently playing Brytenwalda and it is a super fun time.

I foresee nobody ever leaving trenches. There is going to have to be a mode with a flag right in the middle of the battlefield to stop the amount of camping that's going to be in that mod.

The lovely admins are going to play NW style line battle maps because thats all they know and what they're comfortable with.

So yeah, three years ago a few dudes and me thought it would be a blast to gently caress around casually in Mount And Musket for a bit.

And now here we are, three years later. Goddamn.

American NW event in 15 minutes, show up in the Mumble we may be cav!

Also, we all support your cause to mod that terrible N&S splash screen Pants, go for the stars.
