[NW][M]Iron Europe - WWI Mod (RELEASED) - Old Thread

[Willhelm]

Yes it is too much to ask, it's probably about 50 hours work with the level of detail they're going for.

[Kammin]

They wear basically the same uniforms tho right ? The hardest bit would be the saddles I guess. 

[Wismar]

Someone should make a pickelhaube skin as soon as the mod releases

Willhelm we're asking for this to be added MUCH later on, probably after bloody Russia/Italy gets added into the mod. Not the first bloody release.

Btw another battle where cav was present was the Battle of the Somme.

[Kammin]

It doesn't make much sense it not being there to be honest. I mean machine guns are going to kill cav just as easily as infantry.

If you're 5 foot off the ground it's much easier to get shot, if infantry got killed just as easily as cav then cav wouldn't have instantly become obsolete with modern weaponry.

[Kammin]

Cav became obsolete because they were hiding in trenches , as I said they used cavalry at the end of the war once it became mobile again. That's like saying just because we don't use tanks in Afghan we should remove them completely from service

[Landrik]

Well 1916 wasn't the "mobile again" stage of the war.

I say they see use when Russia is introduced and we have a few Eastern Front maps.

By the way, will there be a "medic" battle cry for someone to ask to get patched up? Also, will the "P" key be surrender still or something different?

[Kammin]

Not gonna lie I just want to make my regiment  ride at a machine gun .

[Rigadoon]

Cav would only have a chance when outnumbering the enemy, i've tried the mg's and they'll just kill horses with ease.

I don't see you in the list. What do you do for us?

Modelling, occasionally naked, I haven't been added yet though 

I got tired of adding new team members to the team list and then needing to remove them three weeks later because they suddenly realize that they don't want to mod for IE. Not that I don't trust you, of course.

That's not the point. The point is that cavalry saw extremely little use in the theatre and time period of the mod. Like I've said multiple times, there's no reason why we can't add cavalry when we start working on Eastern and Middle-Eastern Fronts where it would be more appropriate.

By the way, will there be a "medic" battle cry for someone to ask to get patched up? Also, will the "P" key be surrender still or something different?

Not yet, but it's a possibility for the future. The "P" key is currently used for attachments, scopes and bayonets.

[Hakblok]

Can't wait for this mod, this will be epic!

You've made your point now, please stop bringing it up.

Who would not want to mod for IE?

Why not use B for bayonet like in Blood and iron

[BSM 'Shut up' Williams]

I agree.
