Volume I


Introduction:
        Hello! Welcome to the Mount&Blade: NW War College! The Purpose of this guide is to provide a resource to regiment leaders, who might not have any background knowledge of the marching commands or structure of an infantry unit, a source of information and reference for historically oriented drill commands and military structure. 

      This guide has been compiled by experts over the years from the 1st East Prussian Infantry and community for use during special events and parades, but this information is being made public for the benefit of the community.  The maneuvers and tactics covered in these manuals are based on contemporary manuals of the period, and adapted only to the extent required to ensure their practicality in the engine limitations of Mount & Blade, and to the scale and organizational structure of regiments within the community.



The Mount&Blade: NW War College will be divided into 7 sections for easy reference.
1. Necessary Vocabulary
This will define and explain the terms used throughout the entire guide

2. The Organization of the Company
The Company is the basic unit of structure during this time period. This section will detail the proper structure of an Infantry company of the era, and proper placement of Officers and NCO's in the Line. 

3. Command Types
Understanding the different command types will make carrying out each of the following schools much easier. Each command taught in this guide will follow the same pattern explained in this section.

4. The School of the Soldier
The School of the Soldier includes pertinent information for individual duties and responsibilities within the line of the ranker. It is absolutely necessary that each soldier understand these duties and responsibilities, and be able to perform them without thinking in a disciplined and uniform manner. The success or failure in battle can rely on the basic knowledge of a soldier in his ability to perform his duty

5.  The School of the Company
The School of the Company is meant to provide information for proper movement of Platoon and Company sized units on the field of battle. Proper control of the formation is necessary for the most efficient performance of the Company. These movements are meant to be completed while acting within a single formation. This formation may either be referred to as a Platoon or Company, based on the size of the unit.

6.  The School of the Battalion
The School of the Battalion is meant for large units with movement of multiple Company formations, while all remaining in a single line. The division and structure of the battalion is complex, but movement is very similar to the School of the Company.  The School of the Battalion projects the movements performed at the company level on a larger scale, with many more moving parts.

7. External Resources
This short section will contain a list and link of resources that were used to create these manuals. In addition to this list of resources, there are PDF Downloads for Each of the Schools.
