Medieval War

Would anyone be up for a medieval battle tonight in PR? We'd probably have to play on a passworded server so no one would ruin the scenario...

- only permitted kits would be rifleman, grenadier, medic, light AT, and engineer
- grenadiers would essentially be archers and would only be able to fire their UGL's while at long range
- players would only be able to use smoke grenades, knives, and C4 during close quarters engagements
- players would try to stay in large groups
- cavalry would be vehicles with guys in the rear firing light AT or UGL

Time: 2300 GMT

ECGN PRM

No clue yet, but I'm assuming it'd need to have a password...

What maps? Thats an important question

Basrah has the vehicles and open spaces for proper medieval battlefields (ie 2 teams line up and charge like braveheart)

Lothrian: "Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least for a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our kits, but they'll never take... OUR SPAWNTIMES!"

(an original quote by William Wallace himself, later changed for the film Braveheart ... but the original has been requoted here)

Al Basrah sounds like a nice map to do it on... Have everyone go to a specific open space on the map and just bring up the APCs to the rear of the USMC and when someone dies they can spawn in the APCs and get back to the fighting and just do the same with the Insurgent's spawn cars...

The reason for the medics is so you can get revived alot because you're going to kill and be killed alot.

Anyway, some nice maps for the medieval battle would be EJOD Desert, Al Basrah (motorcycle cavalry

), etc

Or maybe we could use the APC's (gunnerless, of course) as siege weapons

Someone try to find us a server!

This would probably be better done in vanilla Battlefield 2.

How do you get ideas like that?

Griffon2-6 · Post by **Griffon2-6** » 2007-03-25 19:54

I'd come!

How about a pistols only fight following this?

Lothrian · Post by **Lothrian** » 2007-03-25 19:55

We need a server before thinking post match variations!

lol That would be so awesome to have the whole American team line up in one line and all yell, "THIS IS SPARTA!"

ask desert to lend his for a while(im in)

Maybe the medics would patch up after the battle. They wouldn't fight, and no one would attack them. Would make it more fun so you don't have to go through 30sec spawn times and then hike all the way over to the battle again.
