137th Gebirg Posted August 31, 1999 Share Posted August 31, 1999 Have a few WWI & WWII reenacting friends who have, in the past, told me of bagpipers on the fields during a tactical event. Out of curiosity, will the morale rating of both sides be affected (increase or decrease, depending on the side) when the distant sound of the pipes will be heard? Just a neat little environmental touch that I don't know if anyone's thought of yet. Haven't seen any previous posts about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dar Posted August 31, 1999 Share Posted August 31, 1999 Bagpipes? If they're putting bagpipe music in this game with magical morale effects, I'm going to cancel my pre-order! Please, please, please: get the combat model and AI right first and worry about the bells and whistles later. If I want to hear the "+3 Bagpipes of Bravery Bolstering", I'll play AD&D!

Dar Posted August 31, 1999 Share Posted August 31, 1999 I know that if I were an FO and heard the pipes, I'd think, "Thanks for giving me a good target for the Nebelwerfer we have on call!"

Guest Big Time Software Posted August 31, 1999 Share Posted August 31, 1999 HAHA!! Very, very funny you two No to the pipes. Although Charles and myself enjoy hearing the sound of 'em, it is far too out in left field to include. As a historical note, the only SURE case I ever heard of them being used was by the relief force headed towards the Pegasus Bridge. I don't feel like looking up the names and units, but I'm sure 10 people have it on the tips of their typing fingers right now! Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
