*the mod is planned to be release near the end of this week*

I've been following the development of this WW1 multiplayer mod as of late and it seems to be releasing on Valatine's Day.

Basically a overhaul of Napoleonic with WW1 era weapons & artillery with 2 factions: French Third Republic and German Empire on release.

Here's a short video from the closed Beta:

Although it looks promising past WW1 games had soured me a tad, e.g.the initially buggy release of The Great War mod for Napoleon Total War and the FPS early access game Verdun.

Another concern is server stability since this mod proposes it still supports the 200 player cap. from Napoleonic Wars.

Other ambitious multiplayer Warband Mods faced server problems in the past. One example would be Bear Force 2, a star wars multiplayer mod,where servers were unable to maintain more than ~90 players. As a result, the mod pretty much died out when the novelty of it wore off.

Will love be found in this battlefield? All that can be done is wait and see.

Around 2258 hours of Mount&Blade: Warband / Napoleonic Wars / Warband Mods. I believe roughly 2/3 of it was multiplayer.

Yep, last time I checked it was pretty much that. Also "lol", Chivalry, M&B had me first, not that fond of Chiv, but whatever.

Anyways, the IRC channel that was mentioned is pretty much your best bet OP.

Thanks for the help anyways. Hopefully the ability to create guides will have a finalized answer/solution, in the meantime this gives me time to do a proper write up on line drills/commands and general guidelines from my time in Napoleonic Wars linebattles.

Is it on the Guide tab? There doesn't seem to appear to be any edit option near the follow option like the main wiki page for me.

While I was editing the wiki pages for the Mount&Blade Warband: Napoleonic Wars wiki page, I thought it would be neat if I wrote a guide for it, but I am not sure how I could implement a guide on the game's guide tab.

Good luck lads, consistent events and good turnouts fosters the later more and befits the former from my time in M&B/Napoleonic Wars events with public regiments/warbands/host/legions.

Both of my personal GOTY are pretty niche, Crusader Kings 2 and Napoleonic Wars(albeit, it's just a 2012 expansion to a 2009 game).

My longest/one of the most recent one would be Mount&Blade Warband (mostly its mods), the number of hours hit about 1000 hours ( about 70-80% is from multiplayer mods). Whereas the Napoleonic Wars expansion (which is the expansion to my addiction) reached 500 hours at this time.

Looks interesting, but I'll be sticking with Mount&Blade/Napoleonic Wars till I get a better computer before venturing into either Chivalry or WOTR.
