*We also have a website, www.16thMarines.enjin.com - if it could be fit conveniently somewhere there, that would be cool. If it is bothersome to fit it in there and keep everything uniform, don't worry about it.

Thanks.

I will take a quote from Sharpe...

 Good linebattle tonight, gents. I see you captured your short-range musket volley on us. Good show. Although, I do believe you misplaced something on the ground... 




 Boasting aside, I am not sure if I have formally wished you lads luck. So, good luck!

 Unfortunantly in some events, there is a standardized double-line rule that is not often enforced. I believe that, if executed right, a double line provides advantage over single line units. Many ask how, but in my experience, if you perform a two-rank line in a certain manner, the bullets absorption is more concentrated, focusing all damage on indiduals rather than literally everyone. Of course, if spacing is fucked up, it all goes down the shitter. 

 In other news. Once I work out the kinks tomorrow, the battalion will no longer be accepting applications to the unit via forums. We now have a website set up at enjin, www.16thMarines.enjin.com. All new recruits will be required to apply to the regiment there and keep active on our site. The forum posts on TaleWorlds and FSE will act as laisons to the community. It is the way forward, gentlemen!

Good luck, DaMonkey. Although I believe you don't need it. 

Thanks.

Banner packs just replace current banners for you. You may still have the same banner as another regiment.

Thanks.

And indeed. The thing about NW is it doesn't have near as many banners to choose from. I chose the one I did because it is common for the Royal Navy.

What will we do with a drunken sailor...

Off Topic / Re: Gun Control Debate

« on: December 21, 2012, 08:16:55 am »

"Why doesn't the US adopt the same system of Canada?"

Because the US is not Canada. If laws like that were to be enacted, a huge majority of firearms would be confiscated by the government. I am sure you have seen a previous post by me detailing that this just isn't probable. So many of the owners simply wouldn't allow it, as they have gone this long with their arms without any interference. Some may resort to violence to keep their guns. As for me, I would not. However if such laws were enacted, I would sell all my belongings, collect all of my Guard Officer pay, and defect to a different country.

If acess to firearms is so important for you, I hear Somalia has very loose gun restriction. You might be interested.

 That seems slightly hostile. I was merely stating that the gun control laws here are the only reason I still live here. If these laws are the same as other countries, I would move to a country that had different tax policies and the like.

P.S My mass murder weapon would be a bat, or perhaps a katana. Just sayin.
