Just to ruin your romantic notions of the military - they're full of really, really, stupid people. Most have no idea what they're getting into. "Military men are dumb, stupid animals, to be used as pawns in foreign policy" - Bob Woodward quoting Kissinger.

The more you fools say "respect the troops" or call them "heroes" the more you encourage young people to join it. It's really primitive.

Hey man... take your politics and stuff it.  :evil:
 
Hello, i'm the Doctor. I don't recall having gun models, textures, or talking to Iron Europe about said missing models and textures.

However, here's an example of some rocks if you would like me to join your team. These are complete with shading.

On a serious note, I never joined your team, and whoever used my name isn't me.

If you could remove my name from the dev list, that'd be nice. :razz:

(If you want to keep me on i'd accept your alphas though.)

Haha, sorry about that. I mixed you up with Darth Taco.

The french troops could be good if the generals at least tried to be good.

I don't think you can't juge which troops are "good" and which are not since you had never be in position to be killed and you never did a war. It's easy to treat men who really served  as "bad soldiers" and say they had to be more courageous or better fighters from the confort and the safety of your room.

by the way, where do you saw that French troops were bad? They fight well during the whole war, or tell me in which action they failed. Of course 1914 was a catastrophic year for French army who suffered around 800 000 KIA from september 1914 to end 1915, but they never gave up, no? Mutiny of 1917? They never asked to stop figthing or surrender, they just said they didnt want to be sacrified for nothing.

Because they didnt won the war alone? You think Germany was alone ? Without Austria, ottoman empire and Bulgaria i don't think they could win too, or stayed in the war during 4 long years. I have to precise to you that France also send alot of troops to support allies in difficulty, like Romania or Italy in 1916-1917, perhaps Serbia received French renforcements (i don't know for this last one).


If you consider that  the few french survivors of Verdun battle arty fire of february 1916 who faced thousand of german soldiers and  keep defended the place in desperate position aren't good, that's your choice. If you think the defenders of Fort de Vaux who were ALL french aren't good soldiers, that's your choice....

You can juge tactic and strategy, but please keep your absurdly opinion about troops for yourself, it's ridiculous.
 
I noticed most NW mods, even very good ones, that are very regiment event heavy usually die on a few weeks or months, how will Iron Europe be any different. Will there be something that will make Iron Europe stand out from those other mods.

trench warfare, everyone knows how to conduct a line battle, but it will take a while before a sufficient formula for a trench battle is produced, and experimentation with this completely knew frontier in nw modding will be interesting for a very very long time. I dont think some special ngrediant is really needed, especially to the ww1 enthusiast out there who will make up a large % of the mods player base.

I disagree. You are easily the biggest WW1 buff I know of, so you're naturally biased. I think for this mod to be successful, special attention needs to be put into balancing a Team Deathmatch styled gameplay. That will be the most played game mode in my opinion, and will keep public servers populated if done right. Trench battles will of course be hosted, I plan on hosting a weekly event myself to support my good pal Rigadoon, but that will only build interest among established groups (NW regiments and the like). In short, weapons and maps should be geared towards a fun TDM mode, and everything else will fall into place.

Edit: I forgot to mention the need for cookies baked by a lovely French woman. Very important for this mod's success.
 
5arge you can handle the server and i will take it upon myself to make certain that everyone gets there cookies on entry. This mod's future is sealed.

Early on we got to talking about attack-and-defend style games, where teams fight to claim trenches/areas. It would allow for proper trench warfare with all the fun of regular TDM-type stuff.
 
Does anyone have any idea how far along in this mod they are. . . Or you are (if the developer is reading this). . . IM SOO PUMPED    :mrgreen:


Ps:  Forgot to ask if there is going to be a singleplayer part of this?
also In a lot of warband battles, when I play with bots, they just charge into battle. . . All helter skelter.  Is that going to be worked on, or is this strictly for player versus player?
