Hey guys,

So I was talking in the main HLL channel on the Discord with a few of the guys, about an idea I had thought about for a fun, semi-real, scenario based game we could possibly set up for sometime in the new year, as a bit of fun.

We could play a style of realism and not allow garrisons or OPs, but instead everyone who dies (both teams) has to respawn at HQ and trucks have to deliver guys to the front line. (for the first one, no Artillery allowed – can be setup in some sort of scenario where the Arty guns have been sabotaged and unable to use till later in the game, or just not at all till we figure out a cool ruleset for it)

I would initially make the scenario where you have to fight on a certain point, as without garrisons or OP’s players would need to communicate much more effectively, and the whole “run & gun” wouldn’t be possible, unless you’re happy to sit in HQ waiting for the truck to pick you up.

Would make it much more strategy based, where does the Commander send the trucks? Does he reinforce the flank or assault the point etc. You’d need constant communication with Squad leaders on the front line (who have to stay alive as long as possible to direct troop flow) could be a fun lil quirky battle. Could get a few streamers on board to stream it and bring more exposure to HLL, Realism & ultimately PBS.

Plus points to the semi-realism;

• Strategy becomes very important.
• Players learn patience and communication.
• Medics become invaluable.
• Improve players awareness in tense situations.
  
• Would allow “frontlines” to actually develop.
• Smokes, Grenades, Ammo, all become a limitless resource on the frontlines. (ammo boxes, become relevant)

Was lost in the Discord chat, so I figured I’d post it up here to see if there was any interest in this style of gameplay. Obviously would still need to sit down and think out some rules, specifically around Recon units/Arty/Tanks (could all be scenario based AKA story driven)

As a base idea, let me know what you think, would love to hear any and all feedback on it.

Regards,

Senpuu

Sounds kinda fun I´d be up for it. We could do it as some sort of event every week or so.

I really like this idea, count me in.

Definitely sounds fun. I enjoy playing medic and this would make it much more interesting !

I love the idea, it would certainly make some roles even more crucial, and perhaps even give recon teams a whole new kind of assignment.

Love the idea. Assuming one person does not take the truck for themselves

Would be fun to try and see how it plays out!
