As already said, running battlegroup on this server is a bad idea because it takes attention away and its arcade-ish gameplay does not appeal to many in our community (me included) and isn't fit for competitive gaming.

(Mr_J's previous request for BG42 was downvoted by the majority)


However i think we should not shelve this thread yet.
I particular I ike the idea of having BF1918 seperately installed



Why? Because it is a well made mod with unusual setting and its community is unfortunately dead
Also this year marks the hundredth anniversary of the beginning of WW1, a BF1918 event would be the perfect commemoration

Yes, very interested, but nobody has commented on this for a month so I didn't think anybody was interested in this anymore, I would really want to do this but we can't obviously without a majority support.
I mean according to the poll we do have a majority support for this kind of thing, but usually its the minorities that are going to raise an argument over it.

How good is your knowledge of the BF1918 maps? Instead of mayer's suggestion from page 1 I would rather play a variety of maps and not only 1914. And different theatres.

I'm familiar with the BF1918 maps, I use to be a big fan of it, but unfortunately got into it too late to take part in any of the multiplayer games. I have noticed though that they seemed to put more effort into the 1918 maps than some of the others. I think our event rotation should consist of mainly trench battles but include some objective maps and air/naval fights. I really hope we can do this and I'm willing to support this idea.
Maps I Think We Should Do:
Tsingtao
Baghdad, Battle of
Battleaxe-1918
Falkland Islands
Bismark Archipel
Fao Landing
Raid On Fort Pontisse
Saint Quentin Canal, Battle of
Gallipoli
Tannenberg
Hindenburg Line
River Run
Toska Airbattle
Ypres-1914
Tanzanian Plains
Mont Kemmel
Broodseinde, Battle of
Belleau Wood
Chateau Thierry
Masuren
Vitry
Halen, Battle of
Monte Piana

Maps We Maybe Should Do:
Ypres Streets? Maybe
Somme Gas Attack
Krakau
Desert Winds
Battle of the Giants
Mughar Ridge
Brusilov Offensive
Next Stop Berlin
Tanga
Tolmezzo
Cantigny

If you guys have any more ideas for maps please post them here. The list also depends on how long you want the event to be, in my personal opinion we should make it last for as long as possible because we probably won't do something like this again, because its the hundredth anniversary. Please write your comments and thoughts to my and add/subtract from it if you like. smile

Hmm, I was thinking of a max 2 days event (Saturday/Sunday), 6 maps per day. I forgot another condition: The maps should be playable with ~20 ppl.

Any word from my fellow admins are you still supporting this? Doesn't make much sense when only 3 ppl show up. With the bugginess of 0.55 we're a bit limited on what maps we can play, so playing some BF1918 would be nice for a change.

As to reply to Eye's suggestions here is my revised list. I am also putting this in the FHSW EVENTS thread.

Day 1
Masuren
Raid on Fort Pontisse
Monte Piana
Tsingtao
Fao Landing
Krakau

Day 2
Battle of Broodseinde
Hindenburg Line
Tobruk-1918
Toska Airbattle
Battle of Baghdad
Amiens

If you can't find the maps under the names I've given, either put "The" or "Battle of" in front of the name. If you still can't find it after that, please post here.

Why Tobruk 1918? Why a Vannila map?This is my BF1918 suggestions as Inside1918 Dev-Member.

- Battle of Haelen (Belgium  vs Germany: summer)
- Champagne (France vs Germany: snow)
- Besika Bucht (France vs Ottoman Empire: landing on a beach and one of the most popular maps of BF1918)
- Hindenburgline (USA vs Germany: Summer with tanks)
- Lutte de Honneur (ANZACS vs Germany: Trenches and scared map)
- Krakau (Rusland vs Austria-Hungary: street)
- Passo di Falzarego (Italy vs Austria Hungary: alpines) 
- Toska Airbattle.

I wasn't aware that Hindenburg Line contained American troops fighting Germans. That is why I threw in Tobruk, because I believed that would be the only map with American troops in it. By all means you are justified by your choices. I really do think we should include some other theatre fighting like in the Pacific or Africa, campaigns like that. I did notice that you included Krakau, but I really think some more Russians maps wouldn't hurt either. I also think we should have a naval map, just to be well rounded, Falkland Islands comes to mind. I really do push the Battle of Broodseinde map because of its being in the larger Battle of Passchendaele, almost the entire WWI to some people is defined by this battle, therefore I think it's important to include it. This would be a two day event so if you would post your four maps (you listed eight above, respecting Eye's suggestion, we will play six maps a day) you have left, I would greatly appreciate it. I would really like to hear your maplist and suggestions.

This is an excellent ideal we use the second server to promote the main server.

The other community does this to promote their main server.

On this second server you can set up the advertising banners you know that occasionally pops up and set up commands for us admin initialize.

I will recommend just forgotten Hope just a penny for your thoughts

If we are going to run another mod then i suggest the FHR mod it supports bots for those times when no one is on the server and it's FH, which is as close to FHSW as you can get.

Bubu and me are thinking about doing some 1918-events on our server in the future.
What do you guys think about that?

I disagree.

Reason is, that there already is a BF1918 community building up again (with devs support !) + the guys from FHT.
We are a FHSW server and players come here expecting to play exactly FHSW while they just can't join the Japanese server. Taking this feature away (even temporarily) would unneccessarily split the community.

I think it was cool, it could happen. There is a 1918 bf server that is active and seems to be cool, on Saturdays the guys come together to play.
