Hey Guys. Being PvPers and all I found a game I feel is rather similar to RoE that I feel many of you may find appealing. Apohawk turned me on to it. It is called Mount and Blade: Warband. It has a really fun Single Player game, but more importantly it has some very fun Multiplayer action.
You are basically a medieval knight taking part in extremely realistic medieval combat. You can be an Archer, X-bow user, use Thrown weapons or do melee and can do any combination of these you would want. The PvP reminds me of RoE in the fact that it is a free-for-all (think of those large 10 vs 10 PvP fights) and you die very quickly if you get hit by some solid blows. Head shots are quite deadly for example.
The game is constantly being modded by the community as it is open source. I am playing a mod called cRPG which allows for Multiplayer player development from a peasant to a knight in shining armor.
Anyways, I just think it might be a lot of fun for some of you old Pirate folk (Grayson would love the X-bow action!). Hope to perhaps find some of you there?

I played the old single player M&B, great game. One of the best i ever played! The char development is great and it depends a lot on your gaming skill, aiming from the horseback is tricky when you start and FUN once you know how to do it. And shields work like they should do, fights/weapons are perfect balanced.
Havent tried the multiplayer warband, guess I should get that asap.

Hope you do, my name online is Kittenpaw. I tend to stick to the Seige servers, mainly the GK seige server, since it is a North American server. Also been doing cRPG mod a lot, again on the North American server.
