Do we have to go to the american civil war linebattle?
i'm not feeling the civil war that much, i'd rather play on Mount & musket rather than the american civil war.
i find the civil war mod to be too easy, with the aim & ability to bash in all directions.
whereas MM has a larger community and is harder to become realy good at.
so... the question is, will this line battle be optional? or is it obligatory?
Entirely optional, if you don't like it you don't have to play it :)

Would it affect anything? no matter how minor it is?
Or how do optional events work in the 1st EPI?
Wouldn't effect anything, entirely optional if you don't like it, you don't need to go

Roger that, Thanks.
Don't worry Hasan, only promotions are based on attendance at optional events. No big deal. 8)

Yeah, They're nubbish know-it-alls.

+1 honor for that
Had a lot of fun with this today, being able to hit things at long range was a real nice change of pace. And all the long range death had the various regiments sticking together to survive by the end there which I think is a good thing.
Only real complaint is that I wasn't a big fan of the skirmishing. The historical accuracy of it aside, it made some of the rounds drag on that probably didn't need to.
Oh and maybe re-position some of those walled houses/forts or the spawns themselves. I think the union had at least one they could reach way before we could on every map. Not that it saved them.
But they are both minor problems. Overall I had a great time, even got to stab someone with my knife. Really looking forward to the next one.
Yeah, the skirmishing got slightly on my nerves too. Most of the regiments we fought were only around 10 (mostly LESS) men big, they would only have to lose 5 or less men and they could start skirmishing which lead to the whole thing being a skirmish-fest...
Other than that, great event!
I'm open to ideas on how to run things, but as of now, thats the most effective and realistic way of doing thing =\
I need 2 admins for this next one: One to keep an eye on either side and ensure they are following all the rules. Any volunteers? NCO's preferably, but anyone who has shown to be responsible may apply.
Not an NCO but I wouldn't mind doing it if the rest of you want to play. I'm a reserve anyways.

You didn't reach the end for the secret message that determines the fate of the world.

a pyramid that says "Hi" ?!??!?!?!
i fell for it AGAIN!
Alright so I have Rig..I need one more.
Sign me up.
WOOTS
If I am there, I could go admin, note that I have never been admin before... But I guess it cant be too hard to figure it out (I for admin chat? And the rest should be in Administration Options if you press Esc...).
So just to clear things up,
'2. You MUST fight in a line of at least 5. If you cannot muster 5 men, you must attach to another regiment for the battle.
2a. If you fall below 5 men in your line in battle, you may begin skirmishing until you're free from combat to attach to a friendly line.'
So if you're come below 5 men during the fight and there is are still enemies close by, you can skirmish. But if there arn't enemies nearby you can't go find some enemies, you gotta attach to a friendly line.
Also, is the purchasing of weapons allowed?
Yes on both accounts.
And rules on crouching?
Allowed during scrim mode. Not during line.
Thanks for admining you two! And thanks to all who came out. Hope you guys had fun. See you next week hopefully :p
Thanks! Haresus was awesome, by the way. I should be able to help admin next week but we'll see. Also, can I admin during public play?
You'd have to get clearance from the officers to do it during freeplay. I have no issues with you doing it next week if you're game as well.
