17-Leib-gvardii Finliandskii
In Finnish
17. Suomen hengenpelastaja Rykmentti
Not a lot but a bit of background:Not a lot is known of what the Finnish LifeGuard Regiment did in the Napoleonic Wars besides their fighting in Borodino. Which is literally the only instance when the Finnish LifeGuard Regiment comes up in history. Mostly because afterwards they changed into a lights regiment but that doesn't matter!
Quotes from the guard infantry at Borodino:
"The French cavalry again resumed its charges
but was repulsed by the crossfire of these 2 battalions.
The cavalry did not dare to harass our battalions ever since
and only observed us from a distance.
The French artillery, however, inflicted horrible casualties on us."
"The enemy fire destroyed our ranks, but failed to produce
any disorder among the men."
Rules are pretty basic don't troll, FOL, do anything not commanded, etc... for the most part we're a pretty relaxed reg just don't be stupid. Anyway if you're looking for a cool reg with a lot o' spirit then add BB2214 on steam!
