Events: EU / 68th Public Zombie Event!

« on: October 31, 2016, 09:55:29 pm »

68th Public Zombie Event

The 68th is inviting everybody to our newly created public Zombie Event, which is hosted every Friday on the 68th_Zombies server at around seven o'clock GMT.

It is public, which means there is no password and there is also no need to sign up. If you are interested in coming, you are very welcome to; but if you are looking for a serious event, this might not be for you as there are no rules apart from not being an asswipe.

If you plan on coming with your entire regiment, it would be appreciated if you could leave a notice with one of the following people:

Sorry, my superiors forced me to do this in Comic Sans, please forgive me.

« on: August 31, 2016, 07:49:23 pm »

Disclaimer:
This is not a new event. There has been a thread for this event before, we are simply remaking it as our Colonel has left the regiment and we now need to be able to edit the forum. If you are already signed up weekly to the event, don't worry about signing up here.

Hello! Here's another linebattle for all of you. The unit-specific rules are the following:

Artillery  -  Separate from Artillery's Guard

Spoiler

Minimum Attendance: 2 rankers; 1 Art'y train
Maximum Attendance: 10 rankers (13 absolute)
Maximum Spacing: Realistically, as long as you are around the Art'y disposition, you won't be considered a rambo.
Fire in Charge: Disallowed.
Reload in Charge: Disallowed.
Officer Aim: Allowed.
Crouching: Allowed.

Special Rules
[1] Every Artillery Regiment may field a single sapper per Artillery Train; sappers do not count as rankers.

[3] Artillery sappers are not allowed to plank spam or spawn in explosives.

Crouching: Allowed.

Special Rules
[1] All Art'y Guard must spawn as the Foot Guard class for their nation; anybody breaking this rule will be slain.

[close]

Server Rules

[1] If one - just one - of your detachment is engaged in melee, then the entire detachment is considered to be "in charge", irrespective of whether you charged or were charged.
[2] With three or fewer players left alive in a detachment, the entire detachment is considered "in charge" until they either link up with another detachment, shelter at an Art'y position, or die. Note that this means that three players in the same detachment camping at their opponent's Art'y is a perfectly valid tactic, however three random players hanging around there would be rambo.
[3] Bonuses will be disabled if the number of players on the server exceeds 80. This is to help minimise lag.
[4] If the number of players on the server exceeds 190, then stray horses will be slain automatically by the server. Again, this is to help prevent and minimise lag.
[5] The Admin has final say.
[6] The teams will be considered unbalanced if the difference between the teams is greater than one Order of Magnitude below the number of people on the Team with the fewest players, to the nearest multiple of 10.
[7] If an All Charge is called to end a round, then nobody may FiC or RiC, regardless of unit. OA is still allowed.
[8] If you are in a cavalry pen, then you may not reload as it will count as RiC if you are at the same time being charged or have someone in melee.

The 5 Ws and the cheeky H

Spoiler

Who: The 68th (Durham) Regiment of Light Foot, your humble hosts and friendly evil friendly badmins!
What: A linebattle, with a couple of unique rules and approaches.
Where: 68th_Monday_Linebattle
            Battle (though TDM before 18:50)
            Mount and Blade: Napoleonic Wars
            Steam
            The Interwebs
When: Every Monday.
Why: Because the King of the Hill event was a total failure we're all trying to forget about. Because I'm an experienced admin, plus my Officers and I wanted to implement a few ideas into the standard linebattle. We'd be honoured if you'd be willing to join us in this endeavour.
How:Hacks.

So, how to proceed? Well, if you make a sign-up, and it is accepted, then I shall add you onto Steam, and give you the details. Then just come onto the server by 18:55 at the latest, so we can start promptly.

Please warn us at least 6 hours before the events starts, as we need some time to find a replacement. Should you fail to iform us at least 6 hour before the event, then you will be kicked from the event.
