Back when the devs of the GAME ACTUALLY HOSTED EVENTS. The summer events were glorious, everyone was in the same teamspeak, giant 200+ man events. Generals on both sides, arty on both sides, multiple cav regiments. Musicians, i remember seeing vincenzo playing as a flutist a lot. When people surrendered they were given proper executions, with a line formed up to volley them and the officer swung their sword down with the execution volley.
Tell me when was the last time you saw a proper execution in an event? Its been for me at least 4 years. Very sad indeed that a lot of the charm of the game is gone.
