How is the club doing in terms of new allied recruits?

Just wondering.

Not only that, unfortunately the ACWGC seems to somehow get them better integrated as well as better into positions that contribute to the club.

I know it’s blasphemy, but hearing new player stats like these make me consider switching to the Allies for the sake of the club’s opponent balance. However according to the 2021 DoR report, there are roughly the same number of Allied officers to French officers.

Indeed the ACWGC is far more active in discussions, also. Would love to see this club as talkative.

I can't find allied players to play anymore.

I think I have one.

the rest of my battles are all maneuvers.

Well as the Allied side doesn't muster they have a pretty long time before deactivating someone so if the number of Allied officers truly reflects the active Allied officers is doubtful.
And yes it seems the ACWGC is also more talkative, there are some key figures over there that pretty regular post and by that seem to drag others into participation, the NWC misses such persons.

When is the last time the club ran a tournament? Might spur some more involvement.

Afaik 2019, currently we miss a tournament coordinator who could setup a tournament.

Indeed a Tournament Coordinator as well as Training Staff for both sides of the club are top priorities at this point.

We're working on things over here, just slowly unfortunately. I'll see if we can rustle up some of our officers from the taverns, barns and beds they're in across northeast France! :russianveryhappy:

A most concerning state of affairs to be sure.

I follow a coupe of Facebook Groups, JTS Opponent Finder in particular is very active as us the other club with the hideous acronym! Maybe we could consider a Facebook Group?

Scott, send a courier as I'd be very happy to help coordinate a tournament

In the meantime I'll keep doing my best to hold back the forces of the Corsican Ogre. Getting harder at my time of life, what with the dodgy back, shrapnel embedded in awkward places and the damn shortage of rum!

This would be incredibly appreciated Mike! I'll send you one as soon as I can. Email system is acting up.

I'll also send along a 32 gun frigate full of rum! :thumbsup:

General Davies <salute>

I can empathise with dodgy backs and embedded shrapnel and the hardships of such, but a shortage of rum is absolutely intolerable Sir.
