Historical Discussion / The Music dedicated for Napoleon
« on: January 01, 2014, 10:16:24 am »
Most of you may not enjoy classical music, but i came upon an interesting fact.

In 1804 Beethoven's Symphony No. 3 Symphony was originally written for Napoleon. After Beethoven learned Bonaparte's intentions of becoming a warlord, he took the title page and ripped it up. He even called Napoleon a "Tyrant".
The title of the music was suppose to be Geschriben auf Bonaparte (In honor of Bonaparte), but changed it later to Erocia. In 1806 the final title was Sinfonia Eroica (Great Symphony, to celebrate the memory of a Great Man).
Beethoven admired Napoleon before he crowned himself Emperor. Rumors had it that he wrote the music for what Napoleon was offering to Society. (Referring to The Revolution).

In the 2nd movement is a funeral march. When Beethoven learned Napoleons death in 1821, he said that "I wrote music for this sad death, 17 years ago"

First Movement: This movement is mostly focused on the character of Napoleon. (Starts at 0:00, ends 14:57)

Second Movement: This movement is the Funeral March (Starts 14:58, ends 31:35)

Third Movement: Suppose to be a shift of movement (Starts 31:36, ends 37:57)

Fourth Movement: Last movement, the grand ending. (Starts 37:58, ends 50:34)

Have any of you guys played this game called Species?

Species: Artificial Life, Real Evolution is a scientifically-accurate natural-selection video game. It allows you to experience evolution first-hand, simulated from the very first principles of evolutionary science:

Variation (every creature is uniquely defined by it’s genes),
Mutation (child creatures are randomly modified versions of their parents), and
Natural Selection (the environment affects every creature in their struggle to survive).

With these principles as it’s gameplay mechanics, Species recreates the same unguided pressures that drove the development of all life on earth over the last 4 billion years.

Whether you just want to observe, watching and studying as the tree of life constructs itself from a single species, or you want to be an active influence on the development of the species in the game, is up to you.

The game is only in Alpha right now and it's free to download.

Modifications / Mod wont go into Warband
« on: June 01, 2013, 09:36:27 pm »
So this happened with both North&South and Blood&Iron.

I reach the installer, but then it says i do not own Mount&Blade Warband.

I own 2 Warbands, 1 on steam, and 1 that isnt from steam. My Napoleonic Wars DLC is the one NOT on steam.

Im not really sure what to do, help would help.

Community / A small Disciplined Line? Or a Large Unskilled Line?
« on: May 02, 2013, 05:17:50 am »
Would you rather have a Small Disciplined line with Skill?

Or a Large and Undisciplined Line that wasnt skilled?

I put this poll up because latley i have had large #'s, but the Discipline is so bad and terrible. So now after doing kicking and demoting i have this small Disciplined unit which i deeply prefer.
Though Large and Skilled regiments are fun to.
