Land Warfare Course Web Site
This web page contains links to the materials for the CWOL Military
Academy's
couse in the land combat module, Rolling of the Drums (ROTD). To
complete the course, a cadet
must read five web pages (plus others linked to them) and correctly
answer
four online quizzes about the contents of those pages. When a players
has
completed all four quizzes, the server notifies the Academy Commandant
and the player is formally commissioned to serve as a brigade commander
in ROTD.
HOLF Players' Guild
Students at the NWOL Academy are strongly encouraged to join the HOLF Players' Guild.
HOLF is the organization that sponsors NWOL games.
Members of the Player's Guild are notified when new NWOL games begin,
and announcements related to games in progress are made on the Players'
Guild web site.
Taking the Course
If you are enrolled in the course, then you complete the course by
doing the following:
- Read the first course page, including the pages linked from it.
- Follow the link at the end of the first course page to the first
quiz,
and successfully answer all questions.
- Read, in order, the second, third, and fourth pages, follow the
links
at
the end of those pages to the second, third, and fourth quizzes, and
successfully
answer all questions.
- Read the fifth page and acknowledge receipt of your graduation
from the
course from the Commandant.
You may work through the pages in one sitting, or you can do them over
several sessions, as you prefer. The entire course will normally take
30
to 60 minutes to complete, depending on your pace and your wargaming
experience.
You should read the course pages in order, as each page assumes you
know
the contents of the one before it. However, you may submit the quizzes
in any order, though you cannot complete the course until you have
submitted
all four correctly.
