Archiv / Nationalism in Austria Hungary
« on: February 18, 2014, 08:36:31 pm »
I'm some work on nationalism and imperialism in history class and you have to analyze two countries during WWI. Germany is mandatory and then you can pick another country so I picked Austria Hungary. So I'm wondering if anyone in here knows something on nationalism and imperialism in Austria Hungary during the late 19th century and WWI?

Thanks in advance :)

Historical Discussion / Musket accuracy!
« on: January 29, 2014, 02:26:52 pm »
I like how there's a lot of people on this forum who thinks muskets during the NWs were inaccurate as fu*k.

I brought a video to prove my point.

This guy hits the target 3/4 times at 100 yards (91.44 meters) with an original smoothbore musket.

The reason I created this thread is because I want people to be aware of the actual historically accuracy of these weapons.

What do you guys think? I'm not that big of a fan when it comes to LOTR but this looks pretty good. Looks almost like AC but without the shit.

Off Topic / Political correctness
« on: January 15, 2014, 11:26:23 pm »
What do you guys think of the enormous increase of overwhelming political correctness over the last couple of centuries?

For example; nowadays people feel morally objected to believe that non-europeans stand on the higher moral ground and that all of the problems in the world is because of the white man. When Nelson Mandela past away, some of my 'non-political' friends started to post images of him stating "You are the best that ever happened". I asked them if they knew that he was a commie and were a part of several terrorist acts, people called me a racist...
a nice video of Mandela singing a beautiful song :)

Political correctness is choking our democracy and freedom of speech.

So what do y'all think? I expect pretty diverse opinions but I trust you know the rules. If things get's out of hand I'll just lock the thread :)

That picture is from NW with the overhaul mod but it's the same in B&I.
Anyone know what it might be? I have tried to edit the settings ingame without any change. I have not tried to redownload it because I got tons of mods which would take ages getting back.

« on: January 02, 2014, 11:40:16 am »
This community has a lot of people in it but it's a very small minority that posts here on the forum.
The majority just watch or don't even go on the forums.
So here's your chance! If any lurkers are watching this then step out and recieve the light! Post hehe and wipe your lurker sins out of your soul!

God bless you all for this community needs more voices.

Modifications / Franco-Prussian War
« on: December 30, 2013, 09:50:14 pm »
Hello!

Just wondering if you guys have any historical sources from the Franco-Prussian war (1870-1871)? It can be anything from films, documentaries, paintings, uniform pics, diaries etc. I know it might not be part of history that you are the most proud of but Gizmo told me this would be a great place to start.

Best wishes,

                                 Wismar


hehehehe

Det skandinaviske/-a forumet / B&I Svenskt regemente?
« on: December 20, 2013, 07:34:40 pm »
Nu i helgen så kommer Willhelm att släppa Blood & Iron: age of imperialism vilket är hans uppföljare till Blood & Iron. Han har lagt till tre nya lag.

  • United Kingdom of Great Britain
  • Micro Faction
  • 20th Century faction (som det låter, andra boerkriget, boxer rebellion etc

Micro faction är en samling av trupper från hela världen. Allt ifrån Svenskar till Indianer. Därför undrar jag om någon vore intresserad av att starta ett svenskt regemente? Vi snackar alltså om Svenskt regemente av sen Viktoriansk epok.

Alternate History Thread

Welcome to the alternate history thread were you can debate different alternate history scenarios and such. I have always been interested in alt history stuff such as "How would a 1914 confederate soldier look like?" or "What would happen if Germany would have won WW1?". I will be putting up polls to break the ice along the way.



Some random interesting alt history stuff I found:
Moon Heer

WW2 CSA Officer
[close]
1933 Kaiser Willhelm II
[close]
WW1 Roman Legionary

Why do you get a higher blood pressure when you eat a lot of salty food, fat, smoke and stress?

Other Games / Shogun 2 FOTS help!
« on: November 30, 2013, 05:10:06 pm »
I have played fots for some time now and I wanted to test some custom maps. So I went on the steam workshop and subscribed to some nice looking maps. But when I got in game they didn't show up. I tried reinstalling the whole game and all the mods but with no sucess.

The weird part is that I have other mods installed such as radious units and such.
I looked around and found out that for some retarded reason, the map folder were on the other harddrive (C:).
I tried moving it all to my primary harddrive (E:) but it still doesn't work.
The game simply won't pick up the maps.

Any help would be very appreciated :)
