Anyone wanna play WFaS without everyone being bald? Heres a mod that'l make hair show under the helmets/hats: http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php?topic=301235.msg7145760#msg7145760 

Nothing happened here...

Haha, I guess everyones definition of "old times" is a little different depending on how long they were with us.

I almost forgot about those Brunswicker uniforms. Sad thing is when I look at the stuff I made 1 and 2 years ago all I can think about how much better I could make'em now!

Funny how the mod was better than the DLC in the end. Honestly the mod was even better before the  Waterloo patch thanks to 4 directional attacks and more factions being present. Lots of bells and whistles just don't cover up a shambles of a combat system in the end.

Danyele is cool, but he fricking tked me in that video!!!

Haha, nice vid! Can't leave any comments on it though since i'm not supposed to be able to watch it in Germany.

So I've won a couple harder races on GRID. YEHAW! Ebay and Goodyear are my *****es now!

WUT ABAUT U BRO U GOT DAT STUFF IN DA TRUNC DOOD?

Nice Linebattle tonight guys! Given, it wasn't "epic destructor we sliced the fashizzle out of everyone!" great, but it was still kinda fun to jump into line again!

Everyone who showed was a grenadier (at least at the time of this picture!):

YEAH! Let's do like the French, and cut off their hands and send them back to their countries!

Or you can just do that. That works too...

LOL! Thats fricking awesome, I wanna stab that guy too! I kinda dislike the French's favorite tactic in WotR too though, fricking cavalry is the most retarded aspect of the game because of how horribly buggy it is.

Hells yea, Crete was awesome! Its priceless to get away from Germany's bleak weather situation for a while.

Vulkaan was right, the last faction that they have unlocked for Rome II Total war is Egypt!

Yep! I'd like to take this opportunity to point out that I was right about the last 2 factions! And now that they seem to be adding another one, I'm guessing it will be an Iberian faction.

On pirates of the burning sea, my characters are lvl 32 and 33. I'll have to take another look at my spanish one and redo his setup because I was lost and not very happy with what I found.

Yeah after this King Maker update for War of the Roses, it seems like we won't be playing the game till we can upgrade our computers with a new graphic card. 

Plus Portugal is just a little port country that trades fish for money! Who would respect such a country as one that is the most catholic?!

I'll tell you who! The people who bloody well know about how we wiped Islam from Iberia without Spains bloody help thats who! The ones who know that we conquered the holy lands and completed all the pope's crusades thats who! We are a bastion sir! A rock of belief and virtue! And you sir, are a pebble that is flushed to and fro along the riverbed!

Anyways, some good news is that I've successfully migrated my PotBS account, so we three bold adventurers can continue to play that now whenever we choose to.

You bloody heretic! How Dare you conquer Portugal! Gods most beloved children do not deserve to be under the rule of second rate Catholics like the Castillians!

As far as War of the Roses goes, I think your right. I've got permanent graphic lag, which gets really bad when playing on some of those winter maps with all the fog and ****.

I played Native again a couple days ago and remembered why I stopped playing it. Archers are way too good. I died 2 times in melee combat, ended with a score of 13-11. Getting shot that many times does not make for fun, challenging, skill based combat.

I think archers need a more interesting and hard setup to make them more challenging to play and alot less deadly and annoying. This is afterall a game focusing on creating a medieval combat system, and easy, accurate and effective ranged weaponry in medieval combat is a bit of a joke. Call of Duty already exists for anyone interested in that game.

I also think mounted combat needs some sort of challenge to it. Right now your horse simply does what you want exactly when you want it. There should be a small delay between when you press the left button and when your horse actually responds and starts turning left for example. The same thing for starting and stopping your horse.

Something I liked from War of the Roses was the weapons such as axes, spear, halbards etc, not doing any damage except for if you hit your enemy with the correct part of the weapon (not the pole). I don't like the way it was implemented which essentially made any such weapon completely underpowered and shunned for good reason because in the moshpit of combat, and when fighting stupid people who can't and don't even try to block, you end up dying because you failed to interrupt your enemies attack due to the pole of your weapon striking the enemy and not the axe head, resulting in 0 dmg and you getting hit. I think rather, damage should be dealt and the enemies attack interrupted one way or the other, but bonus damage dealt when effectively hitting the enemy with the axe blade. In Mount&Blade terms; hitting with the pole of the axe does 15 blunt dmg, hitting with the axe blade does 30 slashing dmg. Either way the enemies attacks would be interrupted and the combat would continue on as normal but hitting with the correct part of the weapon is still a very good idea.

Anyways, hopefully Bannerlord ends up being a good game.

Soooo...

War of the Roses
Grab a two handed weapon, but WAIT! Not ANY two handed weapon. Some of them suck, no ALL of them suck compared to the Two handed sword and the Executioners axe. So everyone grab either a two handed sword or an executioners axe, dawn the heaviest armor in the game (luckily theres really no noticeable disadvantage to wearing the heaviest armor in game compared to the lightest, so pile it up boys!) and then learn to fight correctly. There is an unspoken rule, so listen up. Swing your weapon over and over again to the right while circling around your enemy in a clockwise motion. Continue and hope that you are better luckier than your enemy. Don't block by god! Chances are your wasting time which would be better used circling and swinging anyways, better to play offensive. Yes as the adds said, "Skill is not an unlock" as a matter of fact theres no room for it in this game at all. Never thought I'd say it, but aside from the ranged combat system this game is a fail.

Chivalry: Medieval Warfare
Right so, take away the cool ranged combat system from War of the Roses, duplicate the melee combat system (esentially get a two hander and circle clockwise around your enemy while swinging) and additionally take note that now attacks DO NOT get interrupted when a player is hit (this adds to the idea that swinging around mindlessly is a GOOD idea) and add a bit more blood and gore and whala! Chivalry Medieval Warfare. I'm forgetting some things here as I havn't played this game for several months, but essentially after having given it a really good shot and playing it hardcore for 2-3 weeks I discovered that skill will not get you very far in the moshpit, swing-don't-think combat of the game.

Mount&Blade Warband (Vanilla)
Combat is still a matter of grabbing a two hander and circling (CLOCKWISE!) around your enemy while swinging mindlessly. But theres this brilliant thing to it...blocking WORKS! Thats right you can block or make feint attacks or god forbid chamber your enemies to break their chain of mindless attacks and turn the game against them! Plus getting hit by an enemy weapon will interrupt your current attack! Wow! Skill will actually make you better at this game! Now theres still a couple of things that I have always found annoying about Mount&Blade combat, such as bows and arrows being much too powerful and accurate, crossbows being too fast to reload, the speed difference from two-handed and one-handed weapons not being large enough. But the point in the end is that its still a good multiplayer experience because skill COUNTS! Amazing idea. I can't wait for Bannerlord because everyone else obviously can't figure it out.

You guys act like this is the end... for those who enjoyed playing with this regiment, just log onto teamspeak normally, most of us are still there! And for the leaving if you have questions just ask me, I will be on teamspeak 3 just like I was before.

This is not the end of my group here, it now allows us to open doors and ideas to what we might want to focus on next! 
Out of the 30 or so members we have on steam, we already have about 15 people in the new one, note I have only contacted about 20 or so about it so far, I am seeing that most everyone is staying save for those who are not really part of our regiment yet.

I am very pleased about this, as I said we have just opened up all doors, if we find another badass game that we really enjoy playing, have no fear I will be there to reform everything and start leading you once more! 

On another note, I would like everyone to continue to post stuff on our steam group, "House of Bane". Use that to be used as our taleworlds forum really.
