Got this in the sale, blummin' heck it's a damn good game. Combat can get absolutely frantic at times, I've never known adrenaline rushes like those I get when desperately duelling someone, trying to get past all their blocks while also stopping my head being lopped off. Still no good in situations where I get outnumbered, but then again, I'll bet a lot of people aren't either.
EDIT: Really need to get into the habit of aiming blocks towards the business end of your enemies weapon though, rather than just face your enemy and blocking.
EDIT2: I tend to play as the Vanguard class, longarms can be absolutely brutal. Anyone wants to play with me, Steam profile link is in my sig.

I thought exactly the opposite myself still each to their own
I may have to try Roses again, have there been any major updates recently?

I'd rather play Chivalry and M&B Warband over WotR personally.

Have you played Team Objective? That's great fun and takes time and planning

That's all I play
I think Chivalry is the CoD of medieval Warfare (in a good way) where Mount & Blade is the Battlefield. I didn'think WotR was as good gameplay wise to M&B so see no reason to play it other than the improvement in graphics.

I added you to steam (Mr Knifey) so maybe we could meet up for a few games?! I enjoy it a lot, the bugs are annoying but don't bother me. The only really bad gripe is the server browser.. Needs fixing FAST
War of the Roses = longer duels, better archery mechanics, cavalry, perks, better customisable classes.
Chivalry = run up to enemy, mouse wheel down, chop limb off or get limb chopped off in 1 hit, rinse and repeat ..

You are leaving out the best bit, how brutal and visceral it is. It feels like there is real weight to the attacks. I'm not knocking WotR, just I didn't think it was an improvement over M&B.
Well I bought this for £7.75 yesterday and its quite fun but does feel very simple.
Once I see WotR for under a tenner ill get that too.
At first I thought the same thing. I thought this is just like playing a cs knife round! Then I go into it a bit more and watched some videos on advanced tactics and realised how much more indepth the game play mechanics are.
This is probably one of the best videos I have watched - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llnRxtazljg&list=UUMnp3NA5Xfysq2LWY9jtgpA&index=13

What class were you? If your running away, the person behind can "lock on" and gets a speed increase to chase you. If your a knight, movements are slow as your carrying extra weight and bigger weapons..

Simple yet strangely addictive, fun game once you get hang of it.
