The first event is going to be interesting...

Lime - "form line on my leeff..... oh..... CHARGE!"

Small group tactics... this is going to be a major change, sooo exited. I'm going to make a wild guess that its not going to be 2 sides sitting in trenches charging at different times, I bet its going to be more of a "sit behind cover and try to snipe" situation like in B&I and the key to winning will be positioning and movement of troops more like in the second world war instead of the typical great war tactics like creeping barrages, gas and clearing trenches. 

But then again.. When the war begun everyone expected it to be short and fast moving...  ;D

There are snipers in the game so it will be alot based on firing but I really do like the idea of squads and platoons. Especially machine gun squads and perhaps mortar or grenade squads of some sort :D

Shouldn't the bar in the signature match the facings?

Quite possible, but beige doesn't look so great, so we're just going with standard British army maroon, as it looks good with the background colour of this forum.

An idea for the IIe conquest event: we play a lot more defensively especially after storming the house multiple times and just getting wrecked in the process!
