New World Conflict (NWC) is a mod for Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars. It immerses players in the time of the French and Indian War (1754-1763). NWC is primarily based on the Supremacy game mode in which you can find the details below but also offers the classic game modes that can be found on Napoleonics Wars. Here’s the development team working on the project:
- LeGenD: Dev Team Lead, Game Designer, Scripter, Mapper
- Henker: Lead Programer, Scripter
- thehir: Uniform Texturer, Ressources Texturer
- Jonasspil: Scene Props Modeler/Texturer, Mapper
- DarthTaco: Weapon Modeler/Texturer, Inorganic Modeler
- Proton: Mapper
We are currently recruiting any person who would be interested in this kind of project. Specifically, we are actively seeking a scripter with experience with the source code for Napoleonic Wars and a texturer (especially for the uniforms), also with experience on Napoleonics Wars. If you have expertise in a completely different area (voice acting, mapping, community management, etc.) Please feel free to contact us if you want to bring your help. |

(https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/25/1434439454-i2-off.png) | Supremacy game mode is unlike the classic game modes. It’s specifically oriented towards the community. Supremacy certainly remains the central element of the New World Conflict mod! Strict rules and codes of conduct make this a totally unique way to play the game. Supremacy is based on the same principle as Napoleonic Wars. Mainly it puts forward a "regimental system" in which groups of players (known as a historical regiment) are invited to participate. In terms of gameplay, Supremacy stands out, innovates, and is based essentially on the establishment of an open world totally immersive and continually based on a platform of FOUR 200 slot game servers; each server representing a region of the universe, each server being linked through points of entry and exit. Therefore, players will have the ability to travel over the 4 edges of this world, from one region to another. This is certainly the fundamental aspect that makes Supremacy an innovative game mode, that makes something unique and never seen before.
Supremacy works as a historical reproduction of North American conflicts perceived during the mid-thirteenth century. Indeed, this game mode aims to propose a totally new gaming experience on Mount & Blade. It allows hundreds of players to compete in a major community battle, and this, in a huge open world reproducing the historical territory at the time. The Supremacy game mode uses two opposing nations: the Royaume de France and the Kingdom of Great Britain in a struggle to power to supremacy. Indeed the objective of Supremacy is, for each nation, to conquer the various strategic points within a region (forts, cities, camps, farms, etc.) in order to ultimately dominate the entire territory. To win the ultimate victory, each nation will spread its supremacy in the entire immersive world that will be open to them. In other words, every empire must rewrite History by changing the course of the French and Indian War.

Besides the Supremacy game mode, a few other classic game modes will be also available such as Team Deathmatch, Battle, and Deathmatch. However, despite the fact that plans be drawn up in this regard, it should be noted that these game modes are not a short or medium term priority. So do not expect to see them in early versions of the mod. They will actually come later. So there will be a possibility of hosting private and public game servers. | (https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/25/1434440355-i3-off.png)

As indicated above, the Supremacy universe will be composed of four maps. These remain historical reproductions of the territory and the environment of the time. This implies that the important cities of the time, the buildings of historical value, and historical forts will be carefully reproduced. This also applies for the typological aspect of the territory; forests, mountains and the most representative water during that time will be reconstructed as well.
The Supremacy universe splits into 4 regions (maps) of which are named: New York, New England, Iroquois Country and St Lawrence Valley. Here is the official World Map Plan of the layout of the Supremacy universe:Supremacy World Map

The regions will be connected via an app that has to be started separately during the main menu. This allows us to let the player travel among the regions (= servers) in real-time, i.e. he will be able to just go to the edge of the current region he is located at and hold the action button to “travel to New York” for example. Then he will appear in New York at the north edge, if he came from Iroquois Country, or at the east edge, if he came from New England. The player character keeps his weapons and other equipment, as well as his HP and ammunition.This little Demo Video show the general features of the NWC Open World System.

Supremacy is based heavily on community participation, without it the game mode cannot work. In this sense, "virtual historical nations" will rigorously reproduce the historical nations in conflict during the French and Indian War, respectively the Nouvelle-France and Thirteen Colonies will be formed. They will bring together in their center two groups of key players (known players and important figures in the Mount & Blade communities) and would also be created in cooperation with the developers of the mod. The recruitment of the "head" of these virtual nations will be carefully made in the various communities of Mount & Blade: Warband, but essentially in that of Napoleonics Wars. These organizations will bring together a core of players who will need to work in cooperation with each other, building a strong role-playing, quality community. These organizations will be the basis of the process and the very heart of the development of this game mode. Consequently, each community must consist at the core of serious players who are involved and have qualities of leadership. Moreover, each virtual organization will have a military structure (with the creation of an army) and a political structure (with the creation of a government including senior officials, governors, etc.). Each structure will have its importance in the universe of Supremacy; it will regulate itself, to prioritize and be especially effective! | (https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/25/1434447285-i4.png)

(https://image.noelshack.com/fichiers/2015/25/1434447804-i5.png) | In the end, once the virtual historical nations have been implemented the regimental recruitment will begin! This is something totally new and differs royally from the principles put forward in the Napoleonics Wars community. This will be at the virtual nations to recruit regiments! In this sense, historical regiments (personification of historic regiments the time of the French and Indian War, as on NW) or groupings of players will have applied to join one of the two armies. This will then to the General Staff of the army to ensure the selection of the most serious, promising and interesting regiments. This aspect complicates the task and makes the game much more RP. This process aims to filter the good and the bad (trolls and others) groupings of players. It is also noted that the General Staffs will have the ability to exclude any regiment who cause inconvenience and/or which disturbs the proper functioning of the army. This goes the same for promotions, since the Staffs will also have authority over each leader (the highest ranking player) of regiments. It will be only General Staffs who will have the ability to promote to a higher rank the leader of each regiment depending on their performance & implications on and off the battlefield. The leaders not being able to do self-promotion. In this sense, upon their arrival in one of the two armies, each regiment leader will be systematically assign to a Captain rank. The promotions they will get later will allow them to increase their status and their importance in the military, and especially (in some cases), allow them to join the General Staff of their army.

Another perspective is possible for solo players. It will be possible for a handful of them to join the community and be active on the battlefield. These privileged players will be known under the emblem of Independent Fighter. To access this special class, the player must submit an application to the leaders of the two armies and must receive a favorable response from them. Warning! It's not everyone who can wear the colors of the Independent Fighter; it will be kind of a VIP class for players who will focus particularly on the role playing, and that will show maturity, mutual respect and seriousness. In short, only those who meet these criteria will access this class. In game, these players will must also have to bear the tag of those who have submitted their application and must embody a classified troop of Independent Fighter or a Native American troop.

To perpetuate proper operation within the Supremacy universe, some regulations have to be applied and democratized to the extent of the community. Besides, there are two important rules that apply to all (except some exceptions): no Fire Out of Line (FOL), no Fire On Charge (FOC). Now here is the list of fundamental rules which must be systematically applied to ensure proper operation of the game.
*Please note that these regulations are for the extensive time and may be changed at any time.
- The Line Infantry regiments must move and evolve in line. They cannot move out of line or crouch. A line has a minimum of 3 players; below this number and they are no longer considered as a line. The "rambos" (players who are part of a line/formation under 3 players are deemed "rambos") must join another line or create a new one with other survivors, like what they will sanctioned by server administrators. The exception applies when the line infantry regiments defend any strategic point (city, crossing, military camps, etc.). In this defensive position, line infantry regiments have the right to disperse, hide, and shoot out of line. This is however not the case for opposing line infantry regiments which must always remain in line, despite the fact that they are taking by storm a strategic point. See the point number 6 for the fort regulations.
- The Light Infantry regiments do not have an obligation to move and evolve online. They do have the right to adopt a slightly spread out line/group, which means they have to be away from each other at a maximum of 2 meters (approximate distance of 5 lined soldiers) and stay grouped. A light infantry regiment having below 3 players still alive must join another formation/line, as otherwise they will be considered "rambos" and therefore receive sanctions. Light Infantry formation under 3 players must join a nearby regiment and adapt to its role in game (Meaning you must follow the rules of whatever type of line it is you join).
- Players/regiments that use the specialist class must comply with regulations on the chosen class:
- Artillery: The artillery regiments using the class must move and operate in group. There are no rules as to how to move apart from the artillerists, other than they are required to stay together. Besides this restriction, no other concrete regulations with respect to the artillery.
- Artillery Guard: Players or regiments using artillery guard class are required to stay together and close to the artillery. Artillery guards may in no case leave the artillery site; they must at all times assist the artillery. Nevertheless, they can pull off formation and do not have an obligation to move in a line. In the situation where an artillery guard formation would be the only survivor of all the artillery, it should be noted that he must join the formation/line of a another allied regiment, this will be enforced by the server administrators.
- Cavalry: Cavalry Regiments must move and fight in groups. They actually have no obligation as to the type of formation to be adopted; this is at the discretion of the officer. However, they do have to fire in formation, that is to say, at the order of the officer. Any breach of the terms of this aspect of the game will be reprimanded. When a cavalry line has less than 3 players alive, following a charge for example, players must dismount their horse and join a nearby formation/line. Of course, they must adapt to the role of formation/line in question.
- Native American: The regiments embodying this troop must move in formation. There are no fixed rules as to the distance between the players; they must simply stay grouped. A regiment of Native Americans not may have more than 2 bowman.
- Independent Fighter can only embody two types of troops: Independent Fighter classified troops and Native American troops. No Independent Fighter has the right to be an bowman when he plays in Native American. In addition, it must always follow at a maximum distance of about 30 meters, other allied regiments. The Independant Fighter cannot move and attack the enemy alone, or he will face sanctions. An Independent Fighter not may undertake a charge alone; he can only enter in charge when one or more allied regiments charge the enemy.
- The "trolls" (detrimental to the proper functioning of a server) of any kind will not be tolerated on the servers of Supremacy game mode. These harmful actions will result in punishments ranging from a simple kick to permanent ban of the player/regiment. The respect between all players is also needed. Hate speech issued in the server chat, whether racist, sexist, homophobic or violent will lead to extreme sanctions.
- When a regiment, and regardless of the class, enters or is situated near a fort (from 1 to 10 meters), take note that these regulations come into account:
- The FOC is, in this unique case, enabled.
- The FOL is, in this unique case, enabled.
- Players have the right to crouch and hide behind objects/obstacles.
- Players inside the fort only do not necessarily need to follow their line to shoot or charge.
- The Independent Fighter can attack or defend a fort; in this case, all the above rules apply.
- Moreover, an Independent Fighter is allowed, inside the fort only, to charge the enemy at will.

Wouldn't PW/PF be a open world mod too? Anyways good luck.

good luck! looking forward to download link ;D

Wouldn't PW/PF be a open world mod too? Anyways good luck.
I don't think that PW/PF allow persistence and automatic travel among multiple (in our case 4) servers, so after our "definition" they are not open-world featured, no.
Thanks for feedback!
-
PW or PF are like Napoleonics Wars; 200 players can play in real time on a same server. And it's all. Certainly, PW and PF have some features like automatic respawn and money system who differs a lot of NW, but according me, these two mods are not open world mods, but more persitent mods (there is a huge difference).
NWC is technically the first real open world mod in Warband. NWC makes finally the server linking possible on Mount & Blade: Warband. This really is a giant progress on the game! When PF or PW will offer a travel system between few server or a another system to creat a real immersive world (not only a server of 200 slots with a limited map), that would be a open world.
To return to the main subject, thank you for the feedback! ;D

I understand, thanks for the explanation.

Hope this works out.
Good luck :)

Haha, just to join this philosophical discussion and to clarify things:
We (the dev team) call the mod "open world", because you can play with the same character on more than one server. Means, on 4 servers the same match i.e. the same round will be played, so actually it is one big match of 4 x 200 (if each server has 200 slots) players.
So we call it "open world", because you can travel among servers. Hope i clarified things instead of perplexing ^^

And if you want to travel to one of the servers and its full? xD
-
You will be reconnected with the old server and get a dialog which says that the server is full.. If in the meantime the old server is also full , you get connected with the "lobby" server. Your data will be saved of corse. Thats my current opinion. Might change.
Good question though

Bloody amazing work! I can't wait to play it!

Yeah. with the time you will find the better option. This will be great, keep it up!

noice cant wait to play it :P It will be nice to be with above 200 server limit, it really can be pain in the ass.

Hey guys, in fact we need testing servers to test this version, so if you know someone... ;)
it would be an open test, everybody could play with following features:
- open world travel system
- supremacy game mode (early version)
the following features will be missing (i.e. not existent yet):
- uniforms, weapons etc.
- new, own maps
- factions.
so the napoleonic wars stuff would be used instead.
so only a functionality open alpha test.

First, we are proud to introduce two new members in our development team: Jonasspil and DarthTaco. Jonas is specialized in props modelling & mapping, and Darth have huge experience in weapon modelling/texturing & inorganic modelling. So, there is no doubt that these two new members will help us to progress in the development of the mod!
Obviously, some clarification is required about our activity/presence little eloquent during the last months. Indeed, we was discrete publicly, that could make you believe that the project was abandoned. I reassure you, this is not the case! New World Conflict is more relevant than ever! In recent months, the development team and myself have been in a long period of reflection about the future of the mod. Obviously, this reflection phase involved a temporary pause of development. Indeed, following the establishment of our threads on FSE and TalesWorld, so following our public release, we contacted several Mount & Blade: Warband communities (including the NW community) to promote our project, and above all to gain their support/participation in our major project. The purpose of our threads was precisely to gain the support of these communities, because as you know: without community, our mod cannot exist! Unfortunately, not much groups of players, key members of the communities have generated real interest for NWC, which makes us think about the value, the real importance of our mod. Why devote so much work for such a project if to the end, only some players are playing at this mod (this is also an issue that does not affect only us, but almost all mods Mount & Blade: Warband )? Indeed, this obvious lack of interest of the MAJORITY (I do not include everyone far away, and I thank also the few regiments who offered their support) of community stakeholders have questioned the principle of our mod. This questionnable thing made us react on the importance of open world of Mount & Blade. People, but especially the communities of players are they really interested in this new format, this new concept? It made us understand that it is not only important to do promotion for the open world towards all the communities of Mount & Blade: Warband, but that we also must ABSOLUTELY provide something concrete to the players to raise all their attention! Thus, and only thus, we will be able to bring out the true value, the real importance of the open world on Mount & Blade: Warband. That is why we are working on the implementation, in the short and medium term, of an open world prototype that will be fully accessible and available on the DLC Napoleonics Wars. This project will format as a weekly event (such as a battle line) and will allow all players to formally test the open world format. We are currently negotiating with some regiments/communities for the implementation of this project that will be realized, we must not forget, in full cooperation with the NWC development team. Thus, before the official release of New World Conflict, you could test exclusively the concept and the functionalities of the open world, and this, very soon! But do not worry, we will continue the development of NWC same time oversee the implementation of this promotional event!
Moreover, speaking of the functionalities of the open world, it is important to mention that we started the first multiplayer tests (that means we are currently testing the open world system: so, Switching Server System, Supremacy gamemode, etc. on few dedicated servers hosted in Mount & Blade: Warband). A test video will arrive soon.
Also, I leave you with a screenshot of Kentucky Rifle model, who is still in WIP (made by DathTaco):

Good luck with it
Sounds nice

Looks quite promising. I hope you feature the 44th Regiment of Foot, they fought at the Battle of the Monongahela with Braddock right through to the Siege of Montreal. I re-enact with the later Napoleonic Regiment (the 2/44th East Essex) but the regiment does keep in contact with the earlier re-enactment group in Canada.
You probably know all of this but for uniforms you can do no better than Osprey. I have a couple of books on the armies of Louis XV including the native troops and the Compagnies Franches de la Marine that have some nice colour plates.

As promised, here is few pictures of our progression. During last days, we especially worked on refresh of Natives weapon. In this sens, we have re-modeled some amazing weapons... Also, we have done the Kentucky Rifle, presented previously, and we want to present you a first view of Louisbourg Grenadiers uniform with the hat of this uniform.

Looks good although I was under the impression that the Louisbourg Grenadiers were a temporary battalion with Grenadier companies drawn from the 22nd, 40th and 45th Regiments of Foot. Kronoskaf is a good site for researching the uniforms of the French and Indian/Seven Years War:

Here are the cloth mitre caps for the three regiments.

You could do what the Zulu war mod (multiplayer) did and have three uniforms that are picked at random. For example in the AZW mod, the naval brigade was different with white or navy blue tunics and then either the traditional naval hat or a straw hat. I am not sure about bearskins as I know of some regiments that put furs over their cloth mitres whilst on campaign in the Americas (may have been the 60th Royal Americans).
-
Thanks for the hints, BlackWatch ;)
I think the independent fighters will have a lot of bearskins and fur (or at least i hope so). I hope also that the uniforms and so on will all be a bit muddy and dirty, as in the jungle and other landscapes of north america at this time there wasn't a lot of civilization (e.g. good streets etc.) ... But in fact i have no big influence on that :D
-
No problem. As I said in another post, Osprey have some good books on the armies of the era (well pretty much every war in history), I have the books on the French army, if you want me to I can scan in some of the pictures and PM you although as the Osprey illustrations are popular you may have already seen them.
One thing as well with uniforms is that they tended to fall apart pretty quickly (a private would be lucky to have his uniform survive one year), one reason why the British soldiers fighting in the War of Independence modified their uniforms so that they had more material to patch them up (also because the tails kept getting snagged on things).

This is the Iroquois Country map that we working at the moment! You can see at your right a eventual Iroquois village, but house props of NW will be modificated by native props who are actually in WIP. This map will be a large forest map, which will have the atmosphere of the wild region of the time!
For those who do not know, Proton is our new mapper. He will work especially with me for the design and mapping of the all immersive open world. Welcome to him! ;D

Looking great so far!

added some more to it! :D

This looks very good :) But I'm quite worried about the performance for some players. How big will this forest be?
Keep doing, looks great!
Btw maybe I'll have enough time to help you with mapping during my holidays, I also am quite decent in texturing. I'll send you a pm. :)

Loving the maps so far! Good work!

Looks good, can't wait to see what the Huron houses will look like (must be complicated to make I'd wager). I have just started back at University and one of my main topics is the English Colonization of America from 1600-1700 ( a little bit before this mods time frame). If I come across anything that might be of interest I will send it to you.

spotted a server named napo2 with NewWorldConflict as module and some random map and gametype name :D
now there are 2 :o serious testing going ons

Yes, guys! We are in testing phase already for the open world prototype project/event (who will take place in Napoleonics Wars community). So, for that, we realize test on private servers (only dev team and friend dev team have access). Indeed, like I said before, a little video coming to present the open world system with the new updates. ;)
-
Great!
-
Looking good. :o
-
looks spectacular
-
This is quite an ambitious mod; so far it seems very nice indeed. Best of luck to you and your team!
-
This is ingenious :)
-
I like the concept, it will be interesting to check out during your test/beta events - although I am also quite concerned about performance issues with regard to how detailed the maps are, especially on a full server.

Hey guys! Here is a little update of the project. Indeed, we have finally finish to make the little video of tests for Open World system. We found interesting to present the large features of the Open World system in setting the scene of three little fun stories.
It is important to note that these early tests are specifically realized on a modified NW module (all NW ressources are retained... only the Open World sytem has been added), and not on NWC module. So, you can't see any NWC ressource on the video. For the precision, these early tests were made on three real multiplayer servers available on Mount & Blade server list (you can still see them on multiplayer server list).
Like the video description said, you also have to take consideration that each travelling between servers was accelerated (normally, a travelling takes 30 seconds to 1 minutes) for not that the video being too long and boring for you.
Here is the video and enjoy it: ;D
[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2oQ-20wziE[/youtube]
P.S: Stay tuned! The dev team prepares a surprise for you! Public tests on Napoleonics Wars (to test the Open World system) coming soon! We still thinked about how we will proceed... the idea to choose the testers among our fan on our Dev Steam group is a possibility that we like. So, feel free to join the Steam group ;): https://steamcommunity.com/groups/nwcdev!

Everything looks good and all. Are you going to release the mod in the year?
-
By looking at lists what to make i hope they just flrgot to update it becuse textures are on 25% hmhm
-
hey guys,
The mod will definitely not be released in this year, because at the moment, progress is very slow.
The progress bars in the 2nd post are outdated and in fact too optimistic.
But don't worry, there comes a time, when the mod is released! Or at least a first playable version. Thanks for your support, the steam https://steamcommunity.com/groups/nwcdev (https://steamcommunity.com/groups/nwcdev) group has over 100 members now!
Happy new year
-
Nice, I'll keep an eye out for it then

Invited a couple of buds to the steam group. Continue the good work lads.

yeah, we hit 113 members in our group yesterday :) Thanks for the Support everyone

Hey Friends of New World Conflict!
We are searching for some test servers these days, so if you know someone who could borrow us some server time ( the best would be a few days next week) it would be awesome!
Then we could all try NWC the first time.
Actually We need at least 3 servers, and up to five would be great.
Spread the word! And in case you can help, just write me!

We have an Official Relase date for beta, January 15th
so was this true

In regards to teams and capturing settlements, how exactly will this open world system work across multiple servers? Is it just that it will always be UK vs. France? So the aspect of multiple factions and unique groups from PW/PF wont be in this?
Expanding on that, how will classes work, if not like PW/PF? Will players get to choose different pieces of equipment similarly to Native/PW, or like cRPG, or will it be similar to NW's pre-built classes? Will the classes be evenly balanced on both sides, with units being mirrored (not necessarily aesthetically, but in stats and equipment)? Or will there be a more rock/paper/scissors type class system, similar to the pikemen/musketment/cavalry stereotype?
Very interesting goals in this, it'll be great to see it completed.

It is NW except with These units and time periods, and many more maps...
-
Is this still alive
-
Yes we are still live, the download is ready and everything, but we just need servers, until then we can't release ...
-
Any updates on this?
-
Yes, I'm buying te server for 1 month, 4 25 slot servers, and it will be realsed... if people like more, I will buy for more, if not, only the Colonial Brigade will own it...
-
We want to relase, but we just need to relase, 1st than I can switch my server over, and it has 140 slots so it would be the pub one..

Also, how do we go about setting up regiments etc for this?

25 Slot Servers for a open world mod ? kek

so it's dead?

Looks like it. Shame as I would quite liked to have seen a mid-18th century mod.

It had so much potential

We did have potencial, I got a map out, but it all went down, when we didn't get anyone to make units,and we all kinda stopeed since everyone else stopped, but We would love to keep going!
