Napoleonic Wars League - 6th Season [14th Matchday 15th - 21th Jan]

[John Price]

Don't start changing the rules like you did with NLC.

What are you talking about? Rule changes are definetly needed! Half the fucking league 2 disbanded last season. In my opinion there should only be allowed regiments in that had been alive for at least 6 months.

Nonono, I meant the silly amount of actual match based changes they did. Although I think that was more just Obelix etc. making the league the personification of how the spartans wanted it to be.

Its hard to change rules like that. You may not get enough sign ups. That would mean we cant except 17e etc?

Tbf you can win against a better regiment in 1v1 if you have good movement and understand the concept of how to get into a good position to fuck up the enemy from range. The perfect example would be 5te (Below Average Melee) vs 47e (2 year old Czech Reg). We were outskilled in melee but because we used some nice formations to get them to fire off their shots in a bad position and then put down 7 people in shooting helped us win 9-1 :p

Ok

I mean no offense Dan (although you will take it ofc as I would) but we are talking about actually good regiments fighting the much latter ones. If 74th was to fight 17e we would get dumpstered even if we did camp. Thats just the space in difference. Although we are getting alot better as time goes on.

47e never won anything as far as I'm aware, just being a long standing regiment doesn't make them great. 92nd's melee was outmatched for a long time till regiments disbanded and they gained alot of good players (although they were still better than most).

First of all, there will not be any rulechange regarding shooting or camping and so on. Maybe I will change a few definitions about how a line has to move in a formation, because last season there were many situations that reminded me of a team charge on a public server over half the map. If a regiment decides to camp - no problem with that. You better get your officers to think of tactics to close the distance as fast as possible. 3 years ago it was a common way to choose the best hill and shoot the shit out of the opponent, and nobody cried about rivers. Leadership was actually needed back then. Today I have the feeling tegimental leaders try to get the best meleers around and just throw them into a charge, but thats not what NWL is about.

Then to answer Pumti's question: Last season I was really disappointed on how many regiments decided to drop out or disbanded. All free spots will be given to those regiments first that attended the whole 6th Season. If there are still free spots, I will prefer regiments who were stable a certain amount of time over new found regiments. When there are still free slots (I doubt there will be any after that), regiments that chose to quit sometime MAY have a chance after Cazasar and me did some background-checks. We really want this probably last NWL season before bannerlords to be an enjoyable tournament without salting and flamewars, without quitters and disbanders and without invites.

Would be rather funny to find out that the release of Bannerlord still is 1-2 years away lol

I do agree with everything das as put, looks like we are going to have a great season.

[John Price]

What Das put was completely logical. I do hope that the glorious 74th gets a space after all the regiments that took part last season! D:

I believe I was still in the 92nd at that point.

put in perspective regiments that are rip(now) or went rip in/during the 6th NWL season:

- 1st league: Nr12, GGR_Nr4, Spartans, 8pp(kinda), 42nd
- 2nd league: 5te, 23e, 21o, Li_Ulster, 3teFK
- 3rd league: not even going to bother jesus fucking christ fuck knows what happend to them 

[Bagel]

1stEB will be interested in joining and getting rekt repeatedly xD

[Herishey]

If it's going to be the "last" season everyone should be allowed to partake, just only put the regiments you trust in league 1.

Sounds like NWL should have some kind of trial-league

What Das put

I do agree with everything das as put

Das means The. DasBrot - The Bread. I should consider renaming myself in Brot only I guess.

DasBrot ist gut

[59th Regiment of Foot]

I think the issue are clear to see. New regiments join the leagues and tend to disband or face a loss of attendance.

We can fix that by simply only allowing the older regiments into a particular 'Stable League'  'Old Guard' league or something. The likes of your 33rds, 77y, 59th, 63e, 15YR, 78th, 51st, 25th, 45e, 6te etc (I only know English speaking sorry).

The newer regiments should enter a separate league. Which should have nothing to do with skill level but defined on their existence age.

That way the likes of your 74ths, 93e, 17e, 7thQRC, 92nd and other newer and mostly highly skilled regiments can play without fear of them disbanding and compromising the existence of the older member league.

To conclude. Two seperate leagues: no difference or intended difference in skill. Regiments are assigned into the two leagues based on direct proof on their regimental history.

At the end the winner of the two leagues face each other.  Or the top 2 or 4 regiments of each league face each other in a play off.

(I hope no one gets offended. I just little faith in half of the regiments lasting 4 months. When regimental leaders disband/remake more times then I can count. Skill based means nothing as the 59th will beat anyone ).

I agree with this.

Look at the last few NWL's lots of the older regiments disbanded too, it can't be judged purely on a timescale.
