Forum & Website / The Addition of the Twitch Plug-in
« on: July 28, 2014, 04:39:05 pm »
As the title explains, can the Twitch plug in be added in just like in TaleWorld's forum?

Seeing as no one else has made a thread covering this diamond in the ruff, I figured
I would

Wargame: Red Dragon is a real-time tactics video game developed by Eugen Systems and published by Focus Home Interactive. Like its last two predecessors, it is set during the Cold War but after the original games, in East Asia. Along with the new setting, its introduces China, Japan, North Korea, South Korea, and the ANZAC as new nations.

The time frame has been extended from 1975 to 1991. There will be over 1200 units featured in Red Dragon, including returning units from AirLand Battle.

The most important addition to Red Dragon would be the addition of ships and naval warfare.

Although only the nations involved in the campaign (USA, USSR, UK, France, West Germany, and Canada) will be brought up to 1991 standards at release, free DLC has been announced that will update Scandanavian and Non-Soviet Warsaw Pact nations to 1991 standard after the game is released.

Red Dragon continues the gameplay established in previous Wargame titles, with all features from Wargame: AirLand Battle retained. The gameplay is still revolved around various modes of holding control zones on a large map, with a command vehicle in order to gain reinforcement points. Each faction starts a battle with a deck of units with each unit worth a given number of command points, and the player can place out a limited number of units from that deck on the battlefield. Then as command zones are conquered, command points will be added during the battle at a faster rate, which gives the player opportunity to reinforce. At least two command zones are reinforcement zones, which the player needs to hold in order to bring in reinforcements.

The Red Dragon single-player features five solo-campaigns spanning from 1975 to 1991.

Introduction

Hello and welcome to the Nr.7 Prinz Friedrich August Infanterie Regiment thread! This regiment is a historical Saxon regiment and I strive to represent this unit as well I can. Made up of both new and experienced players, we are a fun group of people that value teamwork and discipline in order to get the job done. With a dedicated staff and active members, we hope to be the very best we can be while still having fun and offering a pleasant experience for all of our members as well as our fellow regiments. Dictated by our code of conduct, we expect everyone in the regiment to be serious when it matters and not ruin the game for ourselves, or for others. Having been a member of this community for well over two years, I hope to make a positive impact and a lasting one. My previous regiment, the 23e, was well known for being excellent when it came to specialists, I hope to carry on this tradition, but with the line. As a message to anyone wondering about joining. If you have the desire to be in an NW regiment, I strongly recommend the Nr.7 as we cater to all our players needs and do our best to make all our members feel happy and content. All are welcome, so long as you are willing to represent our name well, and do good for the regiment.


A Brief Overview of Saxony in the Napoleonic Wars

The Electorate Saxony entered the Napoleonic Wars in 1806 as an ally of Prussia in the War of the Fourth Coalition. However, following the Prussian defeat at the Battle of Jena in 1806, Saxony joined the Confederation of the Rhine as an ally of France. Napoleon then crowned Saxony a Kingdom of France. Saxony's army was subsequently trained and drilled in the ways of the French Army and although its infantry were not up to par with French standards, their heavy cavalry was what Napoleon wanted and needed. Serving alongside France, Saxon troops fought in many of Napoleon's campaigns, including the Invasion of Russia and the battles of Borodino, Gorodechna, and Kobrin until the Battle of Leipzig. Following the French loss most of the Saxon troops deserted their ranks and were taken prisoner, as well as the Saxon King Frederick Augustus the First by Prussian soldiers who then put Saxony under Prussian Occupation and administration, most likely from Prussia's ambition to annex Saxony, and a large amount of Saxon troops were forcefully conscripted into the Prussian ranks. Following the Napoleonic Wars, at the Congress of Vienna, 40% of the Kingdom of Saxony, including Wittenberg (home of the Protestant Reformation) were given to Prussia as leverage for their alliance with France. After this, Saxony joined the German Confederation and would be a key factor in the formation of Germany and provider of its troops until the end of World War I.





Nr.7 Combat History


Beginning their military service with Prussia, the Friedrich August regiment had their first major conflict at the Battle of Jena. Badly bloodied by French forces, they retreated away from Prussia, to their homeland of Saxony. After Saxony choose to join the Confederation of the Rhine, the regiment was reassigned to the VII Corps of the Grande Armée under the 21st Saxon Division in the 1st Brigade alongside the Liebenau Grenadier Battalion and Prinz Clemens Infantry Regiment. From here the Grand Armée marched to Russia and the Nr.7 took part in the battle of Borodino and Moscow. After the French retreat, of which most of the regiment was actually left intact, the regiment was reconstituted into the 24th Infantry Division under the 2nd Brigade alongside a battalion of Converged Grenadiers and the Steindel Infantry regiment. Following the retreat, the regiment had it's ranks slightly re-bolstered (Saxony lacked recruits at this time of the war). The Nr.7 would find its next engagement, following the armistice of 1813, at the battle of Grossbeeren  were they were smashed by Prussian forces (the Saxon morale would never recover from the defeat). Following a Saxon-Franco retreat, the Saxons saw action at the battle of Dennewitz on September 6, 1813. The battle turned into a complete rout of the Saxons  following the arrival of fresh Russian and Swedish troops. Following these Saxon defeats, the remainder of the Saxon Corps was tasked with defending the town of Kalish which held vital bridgeheads the Russians would need to advance further west towards Silesia. On the evening of February the 12th 1813, an advanced Russian force scouted the outskirts of the town to find the Saxon corps holding the town. Having sustained losses, the advanced force withdrew to its lines. The next day, the entirety of the Russian forces (around 12,000) attacked the town who's Saxon Corps was of equal size. The Russians as first had an easy fight as the Saxon defenders were spread rather sparsely. Around the village, the Russian cavalry scored a decisive strike on the 21st Saxon divsion in the villages of Borkow and Kokanin, taking out the 21st Saxon Infantry. After this, the Russian infantry was sent into the villages of  Pawlowek and Skarszew but sustained heavy losses to a combined Polish and Saxon force (of which the Nr.7 participated). The Russians retreated and the defenders opted to retreat away from the town after they destroyed the bridges.  The 24th division would find its last battle being Leipzig. There, the Saxon corps arrived on the 2nd day of the battle (October 17th). However, the next day, together with light cavalry, most of the 24th defected the the allies followed by the Württemberg cavalry and the remaining Saxons. This would mark the end of Saxony's role in the war as a French ally and was the end of the Confederation of the Rhine. The last of the Saxon forces to continue fighting would be the Saxon heavy cavalry (incredibly loved by Napoleon for their combat abilities). The resulting penalties for the cavalry's continued service to the French resulted in them being disbanded and eventually return home after strong protests and dramatic scenes of lamentation. Following Napoleon's return from Elba, the Saxon army was re-mobilized but due to most of the Saxon army being in the Prussian Army, there was a period of unrest among the Saxon forces. Seeing this and hoping to avoid an insurrection, the Prussians reallocated the Nr.7 and Saxon forces to the Austrian army of the Upper Rhine where they would stay performing minor services and drills until they returned to Saxony on November 20th of 1815.  At the Congress of Vienna, large concessions of land, including Wittenberg (home of the Protestant Reformation) were conceded to the Prussians and the Nr.7 was effectively disbanded.

What is MOWAS?
Seeing as no one else has made a thread, figured I would. Well, MOWAS (Men of War Asssault Squad) is a heavy world war 2 RTS that requires large amounts of micro and attention to every single man on the battlefield. It focuses on teamwork and cooperation among members in order to capture flags on the map to increase their score. In order to attain points you must hold more flags then your enemy and tanks can not capture points. There is also a large array of units to choose from ranging from Shermans, to the heavy German tanks such as Tigers and Panthers.

I don't know about anyone else but I really liked and used the youtube forum feature to both share my own videos, watch others, and get a feel for others. Now that it has been removed, I'm unable to do all of the prior activities, nor are others. Will we see its return, or is gone forever?

Essentially a discussion thread of what would happen if scenarios were to unfold that certain countries were to go to war in the modern world. After a certain amount of discussion and a consensus of some sorts, I'll throw a new Scenario in and we can deliberate more. The first one is pretty obvious but I suppose I have to throw it in:


Japan vs China

Please keep the discussions civil and no fervent nationalism to the point of this thread getting locked.
