How many players can join one Redcoats.io match?
Redcoats.io supports up to 1,000 simultaneous players on a single 3D battlefield, and it runs directly in your browser despite that scale. Battles span open fields, forts and coastal waters, with infantry lines, cavalry charges and artillery fire all sharing the same map.
What classes can you play in Redcoats.io?
Redcoats.io offers four classes: the Musketeer with a flintlock and bayonet, the mounted Cavalryman for flanking, the Cannoneer operating field artillery, and the Sailor who crews multi-gun warships. Each covers a different battlefield role, so the map reads differently from each seat.
Why does combat in Redcoats.io feel slower than other shooters?
Redcoats.io uses period-accurate flintlock muskets rather than automatics, so every shot needs deliberate aim and every long reload needs safe positioning behind cover. That pace rewards coordinated volleys over blind charges, and with no health regeneration each wound forces cautious play until you respawn.
How do you use horses, cannons and ships in Redcoats.io?
Walk up to a horse, cannon, ship or the ship's wheel in Redcoats.io and press F to mount or operate it, then press F again to dismount or step away. Warships need coordinated crews, with one sailor steering while others man the cannons.
