Official FSE Servers / Re: Official Servers Administrative Applications

« on: February 22, 2022, 10:30:50 pm »

Community name: Franz Calamari
Steam Name: Franz Calamari
Age: 25
Location/Timezone: EST
Applying for (NA1 or EU1): Both
Regiments: None but probably making my own soon, Crambone's Company reboot
About yourself: A historical enthusiast, casual player, and someone who wants a healthy community with minimal bull.
Why you would be a good admin: I understand the difference between two players mutually having a good time while also not deriding the experience of others. I also have zero tolerance for bullshit such as harassment, trolling, racism, so on. I want a healthy server as much as everyone else does and I realize sometimes it helps to have eyes on the ground in the form of active, playing admins. For the record, I've also spoken to Olafson about aiding in being an admin and he encouraged me to apply. I'm being rather brief with this application since I'm not entirely sure how a cold-call application could explain my exact personality but I'm happy to hop into a brief discord call about this. Ultimately, I just want people to have fun and I think specifically because I am so present at random hours and random spots in a battle I would help ensure the servers stay healthy.
Will you be able to help administer the Public Linebattle or other possible events on the official servers?: I'd love to.
Previous Experience (if any): I held admin privileges during the closed beta. I also played NW for several years (racking up more than 2,500 hours in M&B:W as a result).

Events: NA / Thirsty Thursday Sieges

« on: October 07, 2021, 08:47:19 pm »

Thread and content are WIP, will finish later today/tomorrow, but here's the skinny for now:

Thirsty Thursday Sieges
Every Thursday @ 8pm EST
NEXT EVENT: 10/14

TTS is a weekly, semi-casual siege event hosted at 8pm EST aiming to showcase the work of mapmakers and create an entertaining night outside of the linebattle norm. The event is BYOB.

First shots fired @ 8pm. Rules (WIP) are as follows:

• Defenders are allowed to move around independently within their fortifications but can only move outside their defenses in groups of 3
• Attackers have no movement restrictions
• Build points are set to 700 for Defenders and 1000 for Attackers
• Any artillery on the map is fair use
• A minimum of 2 siege maps will be played, each for 2 rounds. Admins will make a public vote at the end of the 2nd round for each map asking players if they'd like to play a 3rd round on the given map. If the vote passes, a 3rd round will be added for the map.

Total gametime: Around 1.5 hours.

Map Submissions and Rotation

This event also aims to playtest maps made by aspiring community map makers. We're looking for maps made for 50, 100, 150, 200, and 300 players. Please feel free to submit your maps for play! DM me on Discord and we'll talk: Franz du Hudson#3357

Signup

Regiment leaders should DM me via discord with their expected attendance and faction preference so we know how many to plan for: Franz du Hudson#3357. On the day of the event, regiment leaders should show up in the BCoF official Teamspeak 20 minutes prior to first shots @ 8pm. Teams will be assigned on a first-come-first-served basis beginning at 7.45pm. The event will go live at 8pm sharp, without delay.

Regiments / 278th "Thunderer" Shock Troopers

« on: January 30, 2015, 07:21:44 pm »

G'day,

In short, this is a "regiment" made by a bunch of geeks who just so happen to also be friends that wanted to get back into playing linebattles in both NW and N&S. It was made by rolling randomly on a table for a random imperial guard regiment, and we then filled in the crunch with the fluff, because the best regiments always come from Warhammer 40k.

Anyway, here's the long version.

++TRANSMISSION INCOMING...++
++TRANSMISSION RECEIVED- ASTROPATHIC CHANNEL ZZ9/AMOP/278b++
++BY: RECRUITMENT OFFICIO PROPOGANDAE++
++TO: IMPERIAL GUARD, NAVAL DETACHMENT: 278TH "THUNDERER" SHOCK TROOPERS AND ASSOCIATED OFFICERS++
++RE: RECRUITING ELIGIBLE FERAL WORLD POPULATION/ EXTRANEOUS POPULACE IN SECTOR++
++MESSAGE FOLLOWS++

Look above, servants of the God-Emperor, and witness the bold figure staring you straight in the eyes. He is among the untold billions of citizens of the Imperium who have taken the ultimate oath of honor to the Golden Throne- that of service in the Imperial Guard.

Duty in life, service in strength, loyalty through scars, and honor in death are but a small list of the most coveted of all prestigious virtues available to those seeking higher meaning in the Imperium. One of the pathways in which these can be gained is through that of the process of enlsting with the 278th "Thunderer" Shock Troopers. Ask this man above, he's already done most of it before you heard of the Astronomicon. (COMMISSARIAT NOTE: Enlisted soldiers are to consult their Uplifting Primer for more information on this subject. After reading the appropriate sections, report to your local Munitorum agent and receive the appropriate markings. Failure to do so may result in punishment as deemed appropriate.)

The 278th calls a small shrine world with vast agricultural systems its home. Originally selected by lottery of the populace, various citizens volunteered for service in their fervent devotion to keeping His will above that of foul xenos and heretics abroad. Favored by many for their skill in eradicating heresy and operating as a part of counter-cultist activity, they are well known by various Arbites commanders throughout the Imperium for their dedication to duty, and skill in tactics.

Ultimately assigned as a part of a fleet-based combat infantry detachment, the 278th focuses on using drill and discipline to lead both boarding parties against the unfortunate vessels that sail the void without the Emperor's Light, and both storming the beaches of planetary defenses to secure yet another world to be bathed in His merciful Truth.

As of now, the 278th has landed on this planet as part of the Gilded Crusade, which is operating under the mission to pacify this sector, and bring it to the fold the Imperium at large.

Those who have already seen the Light we have brought may show their devotion to their faith by taking up the banner of the 278th to crusade against the ignorance of the galaxy, one continent and planet in a sector at a time. They may put a request through the local Munitorum officers directed to the captain of 2nd Company, "D" Platoon Commander Frank to their acceptance into the landing party.

Historical Discussion / Re: CSA Independence, Yes or No?

« on: December 11, 2013, 09:48:30 pm »

There is absolutely no clause in the constitution that says "Oh, and by the way, you can leave the Union after this such and such...."

Sorry, doesn't exist.

When the state signed the dotted line, they're in it, good, bad, or ugly. The Union does not have an escape button.


That also being said: the confederacy was not a government, it was a group of armed rebels who took over state legislatures and were holding states as territories to be quelled by Federal troops. That statement will cause people's raeglvls to reach new heights, but I'm sorry, I don't, and never will, recognize the "Confederate States of America" as an actual country.


Also: I look at the south like this~

Virginia had one of the largest pulls on American politics as a whole thanks to a combination of it's already massive *It had the largest population by the constitution of 1798* population of free, voting men, and it's slave population, which gave unto it's 3/5th's compromise. The states that profited from this clause lost it due to the non-slave owning population *which turned out o be a lot* moved north to factories and places of industry where jobs were plentiful. It's not our fault that you lost your population due to a shittily-planned, slave-based economy that only profits those born into money, and had a hissy fit over it.... or at least that's what I'd say back then if I was around...
