Napoleonic Wars Battle Championship [NWBC]

[Zahari]

I do agree with the fact that allowing only 10 cavalrymen on the field in a 160-men battle is a bad idea. I really don't see 15 cavalrymen being particularly OP against line infantry. We've always done 15 cav max during pretty much every decent event, and this since Mount & Musket, and many times have I seen lines repelling the cavalry with a good formation. It all depends on which regiment charges which regiment, but 15 men is not OP.
Just my two cents, I don't mean to start any harsh debate. But I don't think you would spoil the infantry regiments' fun by allowing 5 more cavalrymen to partake to the event, while you would let the cav regiments enjoy it more.

15 Its not OP, With 25 man lines forming anti cav formation plus shooting the cavalry gets destroyed pretty much.

It depends on the line and the cav(the skill level). If you play as cav somewhat often you know that anti-cav formations like squares and blobbing up is useless and only favors the cav. Keep it to 10.

Blobbing up its useless? Well, 25 man forming a blob and shooting against just 15 hussars will make a short work of them, and i know it well because i have hundreds of linebattles played as a calvaryman, you can ask any other cavalry player and they will say the same.

Also, a 10 man cap will be just unfunny for the cavalry regiments, we cant bring our full numbers and all we could its wait half an hour for the melee and probably get shooted in the process.

All the cav players want 15 all the inf players want 10. What is there more of?

[SwissGronkh]

How about 12 cavalry?

Ok the way i see it there are  solutions to this:
1. Keep it as it is.

2. Raise Cav to 15 and reduce line inf by 5

3. Reduce Artillery to 7/8 and raise cav to 12/13

1 is my more favoured option, and 2 is a no go, but 3 i may be willing to do if it has enough support

Me, I prefer the option 2 but I think every option are good  with out the 3nd one

[Zahari]

why not 50-line 15-cav 10-arty 10 or 15-skirm

[Michael Fish]

why not 50-line 15-cav 10-arty 10 or 15-skirm

that raises us to 170 players in game, plus additional refs specs and streamers it brings it up to 175-180. We agreed at 160 players to reduce lag, i don't want to increase it over 170 people.

[Zahari]

+5 to cav = 170 it won't change anything. (Im talking about lags)
Ofc if we will add spects and streamers than we can have some issues but if you won't increase cav to 15 you will just have more spects and it will be the same

Yes i will, there will be no spectators in this, apart from the admins, 1 or 2 exceptions and streamers, the spec will never exceed 5 people.
From my experience with mount and blade, beyond 150 every person adds extra lag, so i want to keep it as low as possible to that extent.

I've got 2 questions :
-For the date of the matches, will be imposed date or like in the NWL we must choose the date ?
-How many mens of difference for the balance ?

For example, the round 1 is the next week, so the teams have to speak with the enemy and say what day of that week they will play. But they have to play during that week.
Second, is a 80vs80 so, you have to bring 80 men, 75 vs 80 maybe isnt a problem, but all the teams have more than 80 men

You pick the days, after sitting down with the other coalition captain (to be added for some) and the head admin of your admin team to decide.

I have said this god knows how many times, no balancing at all. 80vs80. You don't bring the numbers but they do? Well they play with 80 and you don't, or you give them a 3-0 win
