Right, so this game will take place in the Napoleonic wars, and before, during muskets, cannons, and the early grenades. All that good stuff.

Now the general time period will be 1700-1815, ending with the end of the Napoleonic wars, you will play a lowly soldier (or an officer, but it's first come first serve) you will get promotions if you do good, and be upgraded as the battles fight on, as the troops are outfitted with better equipment.


a few suggestions for class and origin

A Prussian (German) Skirmisher
An Ottoman Janissary
A Russian Line infantryman (Line infantry were basically the grunts, the backbone of the army)
a French Grenadier (Grenadiers are also limited to two players)
An Austrian Dragoon
or
A British Artilleryman

if you want a suggestion for what to play, ask me

His family, though having modest beginnings, can attribte their success to selling large amounts of lumber to the growing shipbuilding yards to the Southeast, where they made a handsome profit while being too removed for their poroperty to be seized. As a child, he learned the trade of both lumberjack and business heir, also getting a good education from a private tutor on the weekends. His managerial, physical and mental capabilities would come to help him throug Officer training, thoug his social status was a massive weight tied to his foot. With his rough-cut nature and drivetowards excellence, he managed to push throug training and graduate an Officer of the Crown. Due to his woodsman knowledge and rank, he was put in command of an outfit of Royal Skirmishers/Reconaissance, ajd it is at this pint he will be joining the fray.
