A recommendation: I think there should be a list of ranks as default, but they can be renamed, removed, and added by leaders, to work specifically for that regiment.

To me, this sounds like the best medium between the two suggestions at this point. I'd agree with that.
 

The creator of a regiment group should get the ability to change settings in what players can receive certain classes + benefits, as well as being able to change the "creator rank" to someone else.

So when you say that the creator would be able to change settings in what players can receive certain classes and benefits, do you mean that the regiment leader would be able to control who is able to play as any of the classes, a drummer for example? I'm afraid I didn't quite understand what you meant.

The sole concern I have with this new system is that it could have some unforeseen implications on the future of the community. To me, this system seems like a well-intended attempt to streamline the community. However, the system seems to be too streamlined, to the degree that the community is now provided a mold which appears to be inescapable.

I don't understand the medals, either. What bonuses would they provide, if any? And if they're just shiny things to brag about, why have them?

Time to double post!

Also, I'm leaving my signature here in the hope that eventually the number of lines permitted will be re-raised and will allow me to have it working properly again.

Sloppy code, I know, but I'm lazy.

Thanks.

And page six after three days? Woah.

I'm afraid that just won't do!

This post will have two purposes:
To double-post/bump the thread,

And allow me to put together our thread for the Iron Europe mod, in preparation for the eventual sub-forum it will get. (This is just to allow me to construct to the basic concept over time.)
