Salute!
Ah, a discussion of
MP games!
Personally, I enjoy
MP battles more than solo affairs.
Why?
For the camaraderie with my fellow team members.
We talk about the battle, strategy and tactics.
It was my passion for this style of play that led me to form the
Tirailleurs et Dragons! (inspired in large part by the Hanoverian Brigade and it's leader, Monsieur Jones, and the
Black Menace - remember that august formation!?!?)
I have become a trainer in the
Ecole Militaire for
La Grande Armee in the past year, and find I enjoy that role precisely because of the level of interaction it affords.
I have not conducted a
MP game in that school (although the notion is always on my mind), but I do discuss it with the cadets... and more than one has gone on to play in
MP games, and even joined the
T&D!.
I also know and respect that this style is not everyone's cup of tea, as it were.
But it is my cup of tea, and I like my tea strong! Or is that coffee? But I digress.
I've found myself in
MP battles with Jim, currently at
Leipzig, First Day of, as a
Bataillon Challenge.
La Grande Armee's Bataillon's were formed in part to spread the
word and faith of this style of play...
And it is going well so far.
Anyways, great discussion, and look forward to hearing more about what players think of it.
Regards,
