Teams/Factions

As of August 19, 2024, there are only twelve nations in the game. The teams are all real-life countries which were belligerents in the Napoleonic Wars. Robloxians can choose their team in the team selection menu before the start of a match. Each map only has two team options depending on the location. Some countries involved in the real life war were not included; these countries are the Kingdom of Ro-Italy, the Kingdom of Roples, and the Kingdom of Ro-Portugal.

Classes

Since the game is based around the Napoleonic Wars, the main weapons are muskets, rifles, and swords/sabres. It also features different classes.

The infantry class has line infantry, which is equipped with a musket with a bayonet attachment and either a sword or sabre. Line infantry includes rankers (normal soldiers), officers (less powerfully equipped soldiers that buff nearby teammates), sappers (builders), fifers (fife players), drummers (drum players), color (flag) bearers, and bagpipers (bagpipe players) if on the Bloxia team.

The skirmisher class has either light infantry or riflemen, but it is usually both. Light infantry rankers are equipped with a musket without a bayonet, and riflemen are equipped with a carbine rifle. The light infantry musket reloads faster than the normal musket. The light musket also has better accuracy. Both classes also include officers and buglers (Bugle players).

The militia class, which only certain teams have, has either line infantry, light Infantry, or riflemen. Ro-Poland, Ro Spain, and Tovokia, however, have the partisan class. Militia light infantry and riflemen do not have buglers. Tovokian light infantry also has pikemen. Partisans are equipped with two random weapons.

The cavalry class, which all teams have, are soldiers that fight on horseback. It includes hussars, lancers, and dragoons. Hussar rankers are equipped with either a sabre or a sword depending on the country. Lancer rankers are equipped with either a sword or a sabre and a lance. Great Bloxia does not have lancers. Dragoon Rankers are equipped with either a sword or a sabre, and when off horseback, a musketoon (carbine musket). All three classes also include officers and bugglers. Cavalry officers do not have pistols or spyglasses.

Hussars have the fastest horses, while lancers and dragoons have the same horse but are slower than hussars. When a lancer is on a hussar horse, its lance can one shot anyone when going at full speed.

The artillery class, which all teams have, mans cannons. Rankers are equipped with swords/sabres and rammers, which give them the ability to reload cannons. Officers have the default officer equipment, and cannot reload cannons. Both rankers and officers can pick up round shots and canister shots and fire the cannon.
