WOR has made me an UPDATE PLAYER, like so me other players, who feel this game has become more about placing an emphasis on penalties, and thus have started playing other games like Post scriptum. I see more players in that game than WOR. people want to move out from the main line to skirmish, harass, ambush the enemy, while the main line defends, or attack an objective. But as I feel imposed penalties is just to much to accept. people want to play a game, not an historical lesson, but then WOR deviates from as well, and does things the way they want. its we the players who want to play this game, as a game, not a history lesson. anyone who truly understands the civil war KNOWS the north fought the south with 1 arm behind its back, as it were. the south fought with heart. the north had better weapons, and more of em. the south had to emphasis capture of all enemy weapons. WOR moves the point of contention on a whim it seems, to benefit the North, or change the desertion cap areas, like burnside bridge, for the south, we went from being able to cross the bridge to only allowed to go half way, to going just up to the bridge till finally, DONT STEP ON THE ROAD AT ALL, or you will desert. The last stand makes me feel like a staked rabbit, a place I must get to before the timer runs out, with the enemy able to take full advantage of all the available cover to slaughter all the rabbits staked down. The woods had its point of contention moved closer to the road for the union to take full advantage of the stone wall on the road, forcing all southern troops to be mowed down, with no cover. and thus 1 well placed union troop could hold the point behind a large oak tree. Ive asked for medics to be placed upon the field, ammo wagons, Ok I get it, no individual kill counts, but people want to know as individuals how they are doing, with no way to know with statistics. you wont ask for people to vote inputs, on any issue. the way of dealing with RAMBOS was to punish all. I cant wear the officer class uniform as I will desert if I loose the required men to stay on the field of battle, with no hope of ever making it back to friendler lines, thus I dont wear it. Higher Moral tickets loss, are given out to any one killed while kneeling. WHY? already have a reload penalty, for loading while kneeling. Like I said Ive become like so many an UPDATE PLAYER, see whats changed, get sick of the penalty playing and quit till next update. Hmmmm the 5th Fl has 30 plus members, but hardly see anyone Play WOR, I see them playing other games now days, stating to me, what Ive been writing. cant keep old guys on the field as it is, to keep new players going. so telling me not to play WOR, im ahead of you on that. The maps are to small, 1 objective, with the enemy always knowing where your coming from. I cant wait to see when cannons get introduced, LOL, all will hover around em, no line formation whatsoever, no skirmishers, all wanting to be part of a gun crew. cant really skirmish because you will be penalized for doing so. team mates work well together, thus the 5th always Goes into the corn field on sunken lane and DAMN the PENALTIES and ambush. this in effect causes the south to loose to imaginary tickets 1 cannot see till game end, oh well, at least were trying to have fun.what used to be 12 plus men, to now 2 at best. look at all my suggestion past posts, they are not bad. as it is Im asked in post scriptum, whats WOR like as a GAME? my reply is if you like a game full of penalty playing then its the game to play, where 1 STYLE of game play is preferred, LINE BATTLE ONLY. no thought, no maneuvering, die and get back online, die and do it again. dont kneel, to do so causes someone to yell at you for it. I quit trying to get across the Railroad bridge, or the pontoon, whats the point? The yankees love that set up LOL, 2 points to cross, and a longer run for the south. I find it an accomplishment to just make it across, salute and be mowed down. why bother shooting. chances are, Im the only one who made it that far. looking at 20 plus barrels aiming at me, LOL. and the northern players complained about burnside bridge, to the point WOR moved all the parameters, for a union advantage, figures. Oh well post scriptum for me, heres food for thought, I believed in WOR so much, I crowdfunded 850.00 dollars for this game. not to many players did that !
