Other Games / Re: Ultimate General: Gettysburg *Released*

I love this game. Brilliant AI which actually makes you think and gives you a challenge alongside a really nice and unique art style. I love the way you move your units around. Very easy to move them around and re-position them. I can't really find any faults in the game. It crashes if I tab out but it is still early on in development and bugs are being fixed. A real bargain price too for what you get I think. It's a must have even if it is early access.

Unban Request
In Game Name:77y_Pfc_GamingToffee
Reason for being banned: Recruiting I guess
Date of ban:10/07/14
Admin who banned you:Not sure of the name

Ok so a new guy joined and I jokingly said join 77y jack. No warning no kick just an instant ban.

Add CurleyConnor or Darkeh on steam. They're the 2 moderators. One of those 2 should be able to get you un-banned and maybe find out who the Admin was that banned you. We're not a regiment of instant banners.

It seems that it was only a temp ban. Thanks for the reply though
Brilliant server and I can assure you that I always have plenty of fun whilst on there

Historical Discussion / Re: Which was the most catastrophic defeat in the Napoleonic wars?

Waterloo wasn't a catastrophic defeat. The campaign was doomed from day one.

I think it was extremely catastrophic. It was a must win battle for Napoleon if he wanted to win the war. It wasn't doomed since the start. In fact he could of won the battle if the prussians hadn't have arrived. Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Napoleon winning the battle up until that point?

This thread is really depressing me...
Nobody wants the game to die. We have all played and loved it every step of the way but we eventually have to face the facts.
It's an old game with an old engine set in a period which has a very small following. It was never going to be hugely well known because of taleworlds limited budget. The game has survived a while already due to mods and the resourcefulness of the community.
We can try to increase the playerbase but in my opinion it just won't happen due to the reasons stated above. It's time that we stop dwelling on the fact that the game is slowly dying and look to the next stage of the community-battle cry of freedom and Bannerlord.
(I know all of this has already been mentioned but I just thought I would share my opinion)

Don't know if this is a glitch or something has messed up in the download but sometimes when people die their body just stays in the air frozen until their body has disappeared. Anyone know why?
Here is a link for a screenshot of it.

By any chance, can you post a different download than Mediafire? I can't authorize the download on it.

Yep neither can I. The website just comes up with "An Error occurred. Please click here to reload the page."
Any way to get it to work or maybe we could have a different download link?

Edit: Nm it's working now. Looking forward to trying out the mod!

Easy...

I personally think because the game is so repulsive nothing is ever new. Siege use to be the sweetest game mode ever 84e and 33rd Siege use to be full all the time; when Napoleonic Wars came out as an official DLC and was on Steam. Later on people released it got boring and nothing to look forward to if you're not in a regiment. I personally remember when I wasn't in a regiment and over summer break I spent entire day from 8am to 5pm playing siege and that ruined the game for me I can't even play it today because its so boring and repulsive; Defense man the walls... attacks attack and get shot over and over again... Defenders get hit by a cannon ball...attackers breach in...sappers waste all the build points on planks so no defenses...But I'm happy people are making their own game modes like Jail Break and trying to get people back into the game.

The 77y stopped hosting our siege event shortly after I joined. I guess the community just got bored of siege . Also we sometimes have to swap one of our lines over in the 77y sunday linebattle due to a lack of line regiments signing up

Mussolini was a journalist, politician and leader of the national fascist party in Italy from 1922 until 1943. His biggest failure was taking a country that was not prepared to war. He had a vision of a "New Roman empire". In order to achieve his goals he allied with Nazi Germany as he believed that the allies were close to collapse. Thousands of Italians died attempting to carve out Mussolini's dream. He gained virtually no land and one of his only victories came against the kingdom of albania. Mussolini also greatly underestimated the Greeks and what was expected to be a quick victory turned into a hard battle until Germany intervened and crushed the Greeks. When the allies invaded the Italians turned against Mussolini and executed him.

It depends on my mood when playing. If I'm annoyed at how terrible I am doing and in try hard mode then I will take the free kill  but if I'm feeling kind then I usually just leave them and sometimes even dance along with them!
