Admaa Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 (edited) I clocked the same ammount of hours basically. 1366. I am not sure if I regretted it, as there were some good people I met of that community.Couldn't agree more Mr. Doran.Theres are a lot of melee/regimental/clan elitistism. Also quite a bit of narcissism. Couldn't get on with a large part of the community, so much two faced-ness. If the regiment were to not associate with the NW community, it could be alright, but i doubt there'd be much in numbers. Saying that I come from regiments where the smallest line was 20-30 men strong Edited April 14, 2015 by Admaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremiah O'Brien Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 We need to do naval battles But seriously, that would be amazing. Nobody does naval battles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpe Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 another NW regimental player checking in. The downside to this game is that you're currently somewhat limited to both Britsh and French ship crew and marines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admaa Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 There used to be Naval Battles, but they got rather stale, rather quickly. There are no cannons on ships and the boats were laggy, was demanding on the server etc. Felt more like a brawl. Could be fun if properly organised I suppose.

Admaa Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Some maps have a few cannons on the ships. Them ships are static. And the ones that do have cannons on that move, are infact unable to fire. Unless this has been patched in the last 5 months of my inactivity this is still very much true. I doubt the FSE devs are quick to patch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William the Drake Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I dabbled in M&B Napoleon for a little bit (I also arrived quite late to the game), but never turned to truly organized fighting. Mostly I simply wandered from match to match. If you gentlemen are keen on getting a regiment going, I suppose I can lend my support and my musket. As for a name, seeing as we are sailors going on land, perhaps a Regiment of Marines would be appropriate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jekct1212 Posted April 16, 2015 Author Share Posted April 16, 2015 I agree that we should be marines, but what is a good marine name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpe Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 depends, i know the US calls them Devil dogs/jarheads. I never really heard a British nickname for the Royal Marines though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William the Drake Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 The moniker "Devil Dogs" for U.S. Marines isn't coined until WWI. I was thinking along the lines of "His Majesty's Royal Marines" or something of the like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpe Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 (edited) I know what that Lobsters reference was about; they meant the regular infantry, and NOT the Marines. I think it was funny that the regiment in casu was the 95th though. Edited April 24, 2015 by Sharpe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admaa Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Found another. (for the british) "'Bootnecks'. This nickname is derived from them cutting the top from a leather boot and wearing it like a modern neckbrace to stop sailors cutting their throat while they guarded officers on board British sailing ships in the days of old."Though Urban dictionary is probably not the best of sources.
