War of Rights - "The Grand Charge" 

Officer: Company retire into the low. Retire into the low Random Union Soldier: Don't have enough money to retire Me: *dying*

The one union dude charging with the butt of his rifle is a legend.

If you hear orders being relayed in French, a thick Irish accent swearing about God-knows-what, and a trench whistle... You're mixed-in with the Sixth Louisiana and the First Texas. Awesome video, Cody.

As a civil war reenactor I love this game play

Imagine this game in VR.

Drinking game: Take a shot every time he accidentally confuses the union with the confederates.

Got to thank the 6th Alabama for being the rule breakers by not forming line lol😂

Famous last words "how could this go wrong?"

I so hope people play into the way these battles were faught and still with their squads...insteas of your typical shooters where people want to run off in their own...this is sick and has salivating as to the action that will unfold...great group of people that are playing here...👏👏👏

1:35 "defeating confederates and passing by a lot of dead bodies." Well, they don't call it "bloody lane" for no reason

It's cool to see those big groups firing volleys, but the use of small groups of sharpshooters and dividing your force to draw fire is just good strategy. If you cant counter effective strategy and are to rigid to adapt you don't deserve to win.

If there being historically accurate than sharpshooter should be allowed considering the fact that the civil war is the war that term came from

I'm a Reenactor, and I love this channel's war of rights content. I show all my friends your videos.

15:11 THAT is a bad idea but it makes ennemy scared by all those good lines advancing... Thanks to British and Napoleon for all those good tactics!

I love how they got the map accurately, im not far from Anteitam battlefield and I like the historic with the time when that area was a massive tide shift in the war.

They used skirmishers irl so I honestly don’t think it’s a problem in the game. There goal was to take out the leadership and support the main line ( I don’t have the game yet but I can’t wait ) definatly looking forward to skirmishing

*guy runs through hall and runs through door* Guy: My friend I have gotten word that general Cody has uploaded a war of rights video!! Me:.................my taxes could wait.

Watching your videos convinced me to get War of Rights, now I'm one of the soldiers in the videos! Thanks for another great video!

It's been three years, but this video makes me happy. 😁

10:58 "Yeeeee~~~~haw!!!" God I'm flipping

18:56 and 19:58 Looks like a movie, amazing)

I've been watching your WoR videos for like...two or three years? I think...and this is my favorite video out of all of them. So epic.

General Cody this a fantastic video and others you've made are just as good keep it up Hurrah For the Union!!

Being in the middle of a line of soldiers in the middle of a line battle is the worst!

In the future of this game I'd love to see large 1,000 player battles with no-respawn rules. Would make for great immersive experience.

13:49 that guy had the best charge noise!!! LULULULU

Omg, that charge at 9:30 and subsequent confederate counterattack at 11:00 was breathtaking, watched it like a football match. Nice commenting btw

This dude just appeared in my recommended and I love his videos already. Hey Cody! Love the channel! Keep going man.

20:13 😂😂 cody backed up when he knew they were charging too.

Yanks finally had a good leadership, but rebs still on the top! 8th Florida cant wait to participate

The confederate sharpshooters seem like a perfectly valid tactic to create time for the lines to build themselves back up. they were certainly effective in making the union line push back into the road

This game looks fun! I’m going to have to make a pledge and play it!

This video was very enjoyable, General Cody. Well done, perfect commentary, perfect camera work. This video made me buy the game and join a company.

Imagine using this as a Civil War documentary....

8:54 they basically all assemble bayonets in unison, might be the coolest shot I've seen from any multiplayer game ever, it's so simple but they timed that perfectly

7:32 "I don't have money to retire"

Officer: "charge" Me : "charge deez nutz"

I think it's funny how the north got upset there were 6 guys picking them off like they ain't playing fair. it's war and strategically a smart move

The Unions Volleys were Top Notch but their skirmishes were TRAAAAAAASH.

Wish I would remember to buy this damn guy, love this game.

Why is this so entertaining

Always love being part of these battles

The people that play this game are hilarious

I love those Volleys.

I kinda hate how ineffective charges are. While you’re running towards the enemy. They’ve already gotten of a volley and put on their bayonet

Are we not going to talk about that Nano was recording and playing at the same time where cody was recording

Damn this is so brutal ! Nice wideo ;)

Awesome set of videos from this weekend, thanks :D I contemplated joining in this weekend but instead spent some time on the smaller 40-80 man sessions (wish I had recorded, we had a lot of fun) so I could get to know the game instead. Hope to join the fun next weekend if practicable.

That was a well times counter charge. I must say though that while some hate skirmishers (never played the game or know how these things work) it is quite real as it does aggravate an enemy and draw them into a big mistake as was the Union charge. Almost all battles start with skirmishers poking at the enemy until the main body arrives and then the sheer volume of fire does them in. Gotta love that Union officer calling those skirmishers at the cannons "cheeky bastards" though. HAHAAHHA! Confederates at the end though did a good job choosing ground, put them in the perfect position but again... That barrage would have better been served by "firing by rank." If they had done that... Ouch, it would have been reminiscent of some very real shootouts where regiments caught others on the move and by the flank. Happened many times and was ruthless be it in the west or the east.

This reminds me of the regiment battles in Mount and Blade Napoleonic Wars

I surprise one side doesn’t do what I call chainsaw formation, front line (1st and only) fires - then kneels to load, rear line moves past and fires - kneels and loads - repeat, not only are you fire volley after volley and fast fire, you’re also moving forward (or in reverse if need be)

That opening volley of fire!!!!!!

This isn't a game its an advanced simulator for re-enactors. Look if you make a public server, it will be full of YOLO's, guys getting lost, shooting all over the place, stabbing and clubbing their own side. This will be Clans and organised groups only, great for them, general gamers won't get involved...it'll be like DCS or other specialist low player count but dedicated community.

The whistles at the end. Lol.

The British officer showing how its done. 🧐

In my opinion, we need to wait for those cavalry units to be available for killing skirmishes and being weak to charge on lines. In that manner players tend to join the lines rather then be alone. Gives a good reason for it.

SPECTATOR LINE BATTLE! its gunna be a good day, tater. 10:21 lmao

An interesting idea would be to use 17th century swedish tactics. Moving in close with bayonets, firing a volley, and then charging.

Actually Sharpshooters not in formation was a specialty of the Confeds, so if anything it doesn't make the game less fun but more accurate.

this is fucking awesome dude. I really need a pc for this game. I have dreamed of games being made like this.

I didn’t see Jeff Daniels on the Union side.

"How could this go wrong?" - If I heard that, I'd likely desert!

dobrą taktyką jest zajmowanie terenu linią .Pierwszy rząd strzela drugi ładuje. i potem wymiana 4 kroki do przodu i znowu pierwszy strzela drugi ładuje potem zamiana . Daje to pełną ciągłość ognia :).

17:05 Soldier5261 in the chat lmfaoo

Do the flags give any sort of buff like reload speed or something? Great video btw.

Imagine a late sengoku period mod for this game that included samurai, ashigura, and what not... it would incredible

12:29 if the Union had inched up to the wall once at edge of cornfield concealment and stayed behind the wall they would have had solid cover from the wall, concealment cover of camouflage from shadows in front/on them and behind them, the background of the corn, plus the bushes in front of them. Being lower on this hill is not good but can work, the general orders need to be given "Fire at the height of a man in direction of volleys if you do not have an accurate aimed visible target" This will ensure no man in the line is firing over the enemy heads which can happen much easier will bullets already traveling at upward angle. The confederates had up to their thighs at least covered by the hill.

Bayonet Charges seem to be very popular in war of rights

10:20 rip random union guy

I really hate how that one guy was complaining about sharpshooters when it just makes it that much more immersive when you think about, especially when they were employed by both union and confederate armies

The conf got some serious melee skill

I wonder why the union line chose to charge skirmishers, while leaving their flank open to fire from a larger-than-skirmisher-sized force... xD

9:37 Dudes were like "Union Forever"....

Ayyy once again im in the video! :D Nice Vid! 9:06 OMG ME ON THE RIGHT HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY BAYONETTE XD so embarassing

Orchard. It's called an orchard. Tree garden is... acceptable though

you are the best

I find the old napoleonic warband line battles much more intense... the amount of reinforcements allows for too many futile charges and constant action, sacrificing the importance of strategy, almost like a COD version of the original idea.

You need to add some rebel yells.

DUDE BE IN A CHARGE VIDEO LIKE THIS ONE

God bless those solider for America

ok mr crabs

Tree gardens are called groves

a very grand charge indeed

If there is one game that needs a higher player count, it's this one. Needs to have multiple regiments for it to truely feel like the civil war, so one unit can pull back while another flanks, etc.

Orchard it’s called.

Conclusion : best attack is the great defence, stay where you are, let them run into you, kill them when they near

'we are falling back because there are sharpshooters out there, picking us off' 'if you are watching this, don't do this, not a good idea' I don't get it. They made the enemy fall back as their side was getting annihilated and that is somehow not a good idea?

Love the vid. If you think about the way the used to fight back then, its really kind of silly isnt it? Form lines and take turns shooting eachother

What's wrong with the sharpshooters? I've never played the game so I don't know how it effects the gameplay.

As always, a great video and sweet camera work! Pardon my ignorance, but why are skirmishers and light infantry behaviour prohibited during the events? I feel that a small contingent of skirmishers would not only spice things up, it would force one side or the other to adapt (ideally both), but then again, I realize that skirmishers are a huge morale loss when they inevitably get ground to a pulp, because the skirmishers as I've seen them in the game are just stood in one location and trying to duke it out with the main line. Anyways, keep up the good job Cody, it's always a pleasure to see you uploading something!

Ok I'm hooked!

Gip gip yraaaaaaa gip gip yraaaa

hullo good video as always also whoever disliked your vid just dab on them haters

11:47 lol

Am gonna play this game :D

Volleys are good, but slightly popcorn. If they fired in the f on fire it would be more crisp

Can’t Waite for this on Xbox

So how does the responding after death work? Do you just immediately go back to the squadron or do you have a certain time you have to wait?
