2011-2014 were considered the hay days because of the depth of regiments, not how they would stack up to 2018-19 bandwagons.
Like Murphy said we consider it the hay day because of the quality of lines and events. My favorite was always the 14e and 91st ones, mostly 14e for my regiment honestly because they had 1 cannon on a Sunday that spiced things up abit.
Nothing like taking a 91st/92nd/14e 50 man death volley. Really made my penis erect.
P.S people could actually lead back then. Yeah, I said it.
