Warband has gone nuts and people are struggling to find the servers due to some huge bug. Hopefully this problem should go away soon enough!

I do enjoy going onto this server every now and then. I hate to say it, but as somewhat of a gimmick... but one of the best you can possibly come up with. Humans vs bots... and humans can control the bots 8) Whoever came up with it deserves cookies.
That turns a steady tickle of AI fail, into either a column of fail or a column of destructive genius. All depends on the quality of the officer.

I don't tend to go onto the sever too often (which is a shame, after today I do need to do it more), for multiple reasons.
Firstly 84e, I'm an admin on that, so... yeah I kinda do prefer that.
However secondly; realistically the server needs admins on, and I tend to miss whenever they are on.

I would like to, if you would allow me, to make a humble suggestion.
Quite a number of your Regiment members were on the server, when I was, and they were nobly trying in vain to get the 20 attackers to thin their ranks and swap to defenders.
I think you need admins who are able to be on at different hours of the day, and by the looks of it, you may be able to get a lot of them in-house.
Of course that is your area of decision, but its a suggestion that should be given some thought.

ps, thanks for getting rid of Pagan. I notice I'm in the Screenshot, catching a musket ball with my teeth ;D
(and trying to convey that 'there isn't an admin on, we're on our own' - for the 3rd time)

Glad you enjoy our server and i would prefer gallons of mead to cookies! ;) As regards NA admins we do have a few who look after the server when they can. I will choose even more admins over time but they must be selected as carefully as possible, especially as during NA times i am not around if anything goes wrong to fix it!

On another note i have edited many of the existing maps to fix bugs, reduce lag and disable cavalry where they are not appropriate! Also i have put up WDMeaun`s Alamo map as custom map 20 for a good playtesting and if you have any suggestions or bug reports be sure to post them here so they can be addressed. In addition i have taken one of the inferior quality maps out of rotation, am working on making a better version of the Earth Fortress map (the foggy one that is constantly being rushed by bots) and will be putting up the maps on the main page in time so you can make accurate comments about them! :D

Yea, this had to do with a recurring problem with the validation server.
Only experienced it once or twice myself and it doesn't seem to apply to -all- players.

For me.. it sounds like it has to be some kind of routing problem / dns related. But this is on their side and maybe they're letting specific countries in, but not all.. in order to prevent too much overhead.

Today, an admin banned a member of the public from the server, saying he was part of a troll regiment. I questioned it, as this player didn't do anything in the server. I was also confused how did the admin know he was from a regiment that was trolling when the player wasn't wearing tags. I was then kicked from the server, and I reported to Cenkris about this. He ignored me, and now he was removed me from his friends list. I am also now banned from the server, and I have not been on it since I was kicked. This is a disgrace, and it should be dealt with.

The admin was 15th_Rifles_LSjt_Lolchicken if Im not mistaken.

Thankyou,
Napoleon.

After seeing the Alamo in action several times, I've noted down some of the mistakes:

- several cannons do not fire properly, fixed by making an incline at the cannons' positions.
- at several places the AI sometimes got stuck, fixed the AI mesh for this and placed 2 ramps on roofs.
- several details missing, atleast made a defensive fortification in the courtyard but more should come.

I just have a question in order to make it more balanced and as shown in the screenshot.
I want to move the flag and perhaps the attackers' spawn in order to draw the battle more inside the courtyard.
Plus, should I disable cavalry for the balance?

Let me know and the next version will hopefully be the final one.

I think disabling cavalry and moving the attackers spawn would be a good idea. Maybe try that and see how that works before moving the flag and defender spawns but it is up to you as it is your map!  :D

If you were referring to the Alamo.. I knew there were 2 area's on the rooftops, which werent bot friendly.
1. On the roof of the building in the corner (next to the breach and with 2 cannons) had an incorrect AI mesh.
2. On the roofs near the other corner, bots sometimes got stuck on the tilted roofparts. (the one not-flat roof)
3. 1 ramp was missing on the roofs, kinda forgot which ones

These were fixed, so if it was on another spot, I'll still have to check it
