Introduction

The 59th Regiment of Foot community was founded in October 2013, We are one of the largest and most diverse regiments and communities in the game with three companies with a range of roles and skills. We are a British Line Infantry, Rifleman and Cavalry Regiment. Although being British we are pleased to continue accepting recruits from over 20 countries. Our aim is to create a regiment that will provide a professional but enjoyable Napoleonic Wars experience for all kinds of players whilst still retaining the ability to triumph over our enemies through discipline, skill and determination. Whilst we aim to be a well disciplined regiment, this should not interfere with us having fun. A high level of discipline will lead to improved trainings which in turn will lead to more enjoyable line battles through an increase of performance and skill in the field.

In the eyes of history

Formed in 1755 in response to the threat of renewed war with France, the 59th from the start saw great service, fighting in its first war (the Seven Years War) in that very same year under the rank of the 61st Regiment of Foot, they were later re-ranked to the 59th Regiment of Foot following the disbandment of the 50th and 51st regiments in 1756. Shortly after its formation, the regiment moved from England to Ireland where it would perform garrison duty until 1763 when it would set sail for Nova Scotia (Canada province) until 1772 when they stationed in Boston, Massachusetts. The 59th were in Boston during the start of the American War of Independence and fought bravely despite suffering severe casualties. The remains of the regiment returned to England in 1776 to reform until 1782 when in the closing stages of the Anglo Spanish War, the 59th were assigned to Gibraltar and remained there for ten years. In 1782 the regiment would once again see an update to its name, this time as a result of county designation which caused the 59th to be known as the 2nd Nottinghamshire. Although being a well travelled and experienced regiment already the 59th still had one final major war to play a part in. The 59th once again returned to Spain in 1808 and in 1809 took part in the Battle of Corunna a key tactical victory which allowed the evacuation of British forces from the Iberian peninsula. After returning home to England the 59th were dispatched once more to the Netherlands mid 1809 to aid the fruitless Walcheren Campaign. The 59th would then return to England and Ireland until 1812 setting sail one last time for Spain taking part in 5 key battles, the Battle of Vittoria, the Siege of San Sebastian, the Battle of the Bidassoa, the Battle of Nivelle and the Battle of the Nive. The 59th (2nd Nottinghamshire) Regiment of Foot would see out the remainder of the Napoleonic Wars based in Ireland until arriving at Waterloo in 1815, however they did not partake in the hostilities
