The Linebattle Championship: season 2!

The European community seems more alive than ever! Last sunday the first week in the BGUnited was played, a new Linebattle-campaign was started by 3°RGF, and now season 2 of the Linebattle Championship (LBC) is being prepared.

The intiative was taken by Swarth from The Royal Recruits. He plans on forming a committee of clan representatives, this committee would then decide on this season's rules. All major linebattle clans are invited to defend their honour and show what they're worth. Clans can join by posting in this topic on the Bg forum, or by contacting Swarth (Captain_Swarth2108).

As you may know, 42Cdo is run by a committee, and it seems to work well. This will be an improvement compared to last season, where the leaders of 15th and 83rd pretty much made all the rules. However, seeing as Swarth will lead the committee, and TRR will have it's own representative, TRR will have 2 votes in the committee. We also wonder how clans of which the members don't speak english very well are supposed to defend their opinions. We hope these matters will be discussed on the Bg forum.

Last season ended in july 2010 and was won by the undefeated 83rd, 51st's successor. Places 2 and 3 went to 29th and 15th respectively. The first season had a lot of problems with forfeits, at the end of the league 2 clans had forfeited almost every week, namely HGN and TDR. Hopefully, these problems won't occur this season.

BGU results of sunday 06/02:
-[TRR]- over |29th| (3000 - 2280)
Be Blue ! over |Alpina| (2900 - 2730)
|47th| Scrim team [YJ] over |42Cdo| (2869 - 2170)

    Thats bullshit, the 1st season rules were decided on meetings with all the regimental commanders. Everyone had a vote.

    And you dont even wanna get me started on who won the championship. I remember 83rd were accused of breaking the rules. They should have lost it for rule breaking. That just never happened.

Community news update!

We're back! We thought tiedup's interview was enough lecture for a few weeks, so the entire redaction has been on holiday in Libya.  Let's start off with some good news: we have in fact managed to produce an oracle for BGU matches between the top 3 clans. Your predictions will never be wrong again! Unfortunately, one of bg's oldest clans, TEHO, had to leave the league as they are in need of more players. The latest drama involves 42Cdo and 28th: these clans do not seem to like eachother at all, and their respective clanleaders have had some heated discussions. For more information on this, you can check the 42Cdo forum , which is in fact a great source for bg2-drama. Moving on, we have some news regarding Livgarden: the recently appointed leader Heinz was replaced by the original founder, Wellington. The weeks of inactivity did not do the clan any good, they did not manage to bring enough members for a linebattle against 3°RGF. All is quiet on the North Am

{3°RGF} Custom Skins

Image
Using our superior investigative powers The Observer has uncovered some pretty neat looking player skins made by the French clan {3°RGF} (3°Régiment de Grenadiers Français).   As you may have guessed by the clan name they are based on French uniforms of the Napoleonic period. As you can see they have some pretty nice stuff here.  It's a shame is they haven't released these to the community as I'm sure there are a few Napoleonic Wars enthusiasts around.

The Linebattle Championship is approaching and BG2 Development

At the Observer we have received an update on the progress of the LBC .  The site is near completion and the organisers are looking to sign up clans to participate so rules can be discussed.  So if you're in a linebattle clan tell your leader, or if you are a leader sign up here . Also in the Observer's hiatus development on BG2 seems to have increased in pace.  Screenshots of two new maps, bg_trenton and bg_township , have been posted to moddb .  Of course as some may know, bg_township isn't exactly a new map as it had featured in previous releases of BG2 years ago. There has also been a lot of discussion on the future of BG2 on the forums.  Don't panic, we're not talking about whether there is a future, but where the mod will be going in the future.  This was all sparked of by a new user reviving this two month old thread . There has been a lot of change in the BGU, the reigning champions Be Blue! are going inactive leaving Alpina and TRR to fight over thei
