The 2ème consists of the XI Corps d'Armee's most dedicated players, as it has extremely little tolerance for misconduct, and is designed for players looking for a fun yet sophisticated and slightly strict experience. This regiment is intended for players who are either experienced with the game or new players who are looking for a well-drilled group. It focuses primarily on effectively using its musket volleys and the battlefield to shape the tides of combat, as well as effectively fighting in melee. Lead by Capitaine Audiate, the 2eSuisse is a relatively strict regiment with a lenient and flexible schedule. It is often to be expected that members of the 2eSuisse can find battles and skill trainings with the 64e, and vice versa. Overall, the 2eSuisse will provide a very fun and semi-strict experience for all players.During the French Revolutionary Wars, French armies enveloped Switzerland during their battles against Austria. In 1798 Switzerland was completely overrun by the French who turned it into the united Helvetic Republic, effectively abolishing the cantons. Having been imposed by a foreign power, and relying on French troops to survive, the Helvetic Republic was highly unpopular and encountered severe economic and political problems and uprisings. Its new constitution followed the political philosophy of the French Revolution whereas the Swiss resistance constitution reflected a wider European discontent with the French Revolution and conflicting Swiss notions of liberty.
In 1803, Napoleon's Act of Mediation partially restored the sovereignty of the cantons, and the former tributary and allied territories of Aargau, Thurgau, Grisons, St. Gallen, Vaud and Ticino became cantons with equal rights.
With Switzerland under French control, naturally, French-Swiss regiments were risen to greater the Grande Armée. The Swiss Regiments in French service were among the best troops in Europe. The Swiss were long associated with France, from the Swiss Guard of the old Royalist regime. Napoleon created his first Swiss unit in July 1805, followed by three more infantry regiments in October 1806. The Swiss regiments of the Grand Army served in the 'Red Division' where all four regiments won great distinction in Russia; at the Berezina they had to hold the line to enable the crossing to be made, repeatedly charging with the bayonet when their ammunition ran out. They held the line and saved their Eagles but casualties were extreme, 80% of their number were left on the field of battle. The 3rd regiment arrived at Vilna with only sixty men. They had held together right to the end.
The Swiss Corps wore French uniform of the traditional red color. Company distinctions were the same as the French line infantry with the exception of the Grenadier companies whose epaulettes were white.
