The Second Boer War Mod
*If you have a better idea for a name not listed in the poll, please put a reply with a suggestion

Introduction
The Second Boer War Mod is a multiplayer based mod, but will also include custom single-player battles.
Since I just started, the "team" is looking for coders, modelers, and texturers to help out. In the end, the mod
will add lots of new additions that will enhance gameplay! The Second Boer War, in my opinion was very interesting
for a lack of a better term, and is not very well known. This Mod may bring up the awareness
of the war! I also hope to establish a decent sized Boer community, with a regiment thread, and actual events.
This will be, and is worked on in free time. I, am not being payed, and am still establishing a team.
Please let me know if the idea is good, and what I should do to make the overall mod, better.


Planned Features

-2 New Factions (British Empire, and the Boers)

1. In the boer war there was a united army but still this were the factions:

Those names are in Dutch, in 1900 Afrikaans wasnt a language itself, so it had to be Dutch.

2.Bayonets were rarely used, very rarely.
3. The Boers were not Dutch settlers, they mostly originated from them.

And you can see hundreds of examples on the Pioneer's Guild, even quite a few here, of what that impulsiveness and lack of patience will result in.

The Second Boer War, in my opinion was very "cool"
for a lack of a better term

Find a better term, I'd say. 'Cool' isn't really applicable to one of the more shameful wars in my country's history.

I mean, the British set up concentration camps for crying out loud.

Anyhow, wouldn't rely on the Zulu War stuff as Gokiller said. Red uniforms were out by the second Boer war, and I'm quite sure that the Lee-Enfield would be being used, though I'm hardly knowledgeable about the early 20th century, so find out for sure.

Lee Enfields would've been pretty new. Probably a few Lee-Enfields and then Martini-Henrys or something. I don't know though.

Lee Enfields would've been pretty new. Probably a few Lee-Enfields and then Martini-Henrys or something. I don't know though.
Sort of, these weapons I name now were used by the Boers(from early to late):
-Martini-Henry Rifle
-Guides Rifle
-Mauser
-Lee Metford

The difference between a Mauser and Lee Metford is that the Mauser has 5 bullets, the Lee Metford 10, BUT you had put all the 10 bullets yourself at the Lee Metford, which took time, while the Mauser was made to place 5 bullets in the rifle at the same time.
The Mauser was also way more accurate.
The Boers mainly had a lot of Lee Metford rifles, because they made a lot of British prisoners of war, so they could never run out of ammo.
My source is again: Mijn herrineringen aan de Anglo-Boer oorlog, from Ben Viljoen

Lee Enfields would've been pretty new. Probably a few Lee-Enfields and then Martini-Henrys or something. I don't know though.

Lee-Enfields had been widely issued by this time. Lee-Metfords were usually restricted to second-line and support troops. Martine-Henry rifles were mostly used by poorly equipped colonial troops. The New Zealanders, for example, were intially armed entirely with Martine-Henry rifles. The Canadians, on the other hand, were well armed with Lee-Enfields and a number of American made sidearms, mainly Colts.

Another weapon the Boers used a number of was the Krag-Jørgensen, a heavy and not particularly useful Norwegian bolt-action.

As Van_Hulstein states, the Boers had the advantage in regards to arms. The Lee-Metford had serious issues, not the least of which was the use of black-powder. The Lee-Enfield solved some problems, but was still plagued by others, like bad sights. By World War 1 the Lee-Enfield was superior to the Mauser in almost every regard, but during the Boer War they couldn't even take chargers.

If you give the Boers Lee-Metfords, you should think of a way to represent the Lee-Enfield ammunition destroying the rifle. It was the same bullet and cartridge, but the Lee-Metford could only handle black-powder, whereas the Enfield used cordite propellent.

Post by: Van_Hulstein on August 11, 2013, 07:16:26 pm
By the way the Boers had not regiments, but commandokorpsen.
For example, the "Johannesburger Korps", so this means the corps comes from Johannesburg.
For the volunteer corps, like "Amerikanen Korps", which means they came from the US.
Or "Franse Korps" or " Australische Korps", etc etc.

The korps consisted of Burghers(in Dutch this means civilians).
If you "ranked up" you became Commando, the more elite.

Anyways the Boer people who fighted were born shooters, they were hunting and horse riding since they were young, so thats why there skill was already high.
So those Burghers werent really inexperienced shooters or some random militia, but the only thing they needed was discipline.

Also they always let a commando stay at their local area, so they could make ambushes easily.

GG on using Victoria 2 as a historical source.

The Vrystaat and the Zuid-Afrikaanse Republiek/Transvaal were simply two different nations. Transvaal was the bigger and more important of the two. If you want details, just search 'em up on wikipedia. Serves no purpose to just copy+paste it here.  :P

Around the Boer War the Oranje Vrijstaat and the Zuid-Afrikaanse Republiek were allies, together they fought against the brits.
Pretoria was the Capital of the Zuid Afrikaanse Republiek and Bloemfontein of the Oranje Vrijstaat.
