Regiments / 64th (2nd Staffordshire) Regiment of Foot [NA]
« on: May 11, 2022, 12:24:29 am »
The 64th Regiment of Foot is the Age of Napoleon Branch of the 1st Minnesota Infantry Regiment
The 64th Regiment of Foot began as the Second Battalion of the 11th Regiment of Foot and was formed as such in 1756. King George II determined that he preferred to have single battalions and authorized the 64th Regiment of Foot into being in 1758.

The Regiment eventually was ordered to the North American Colonies and arrived in Boston in 1768. Unrest in the Colonies was on the increase through the early 1770’s and in February 1775 Lt. Col. Alexander Leslie was ordered to Salem, Mass with some of his own 64th Regiment to confiscate arms and military stores reported to be held there. During the course of events that day one Soldier from the 64th pricked a townsman in Salem thus shedding the ‘first blood’ of the American Revolution. The 64th returned to Boston and was then stationed on Castle Island (today this is known as Fort Independence on the Boston waterline but at that time an island quite far out into Boston Harbor). The 64th did not take part in the events of April 1775 at Lexington or Concord. It was not part of the action on Breed’s (Bunker’s) Hill. The 64th Regiment was one of the last to leave Boston when the city was evacuated.

The Regiment then went to Halifax, Nova Scotia but would return to be part of the New York Garrison.

In the 64th Regiment of Foot the Company was commanded during the first part of the American Revolution by Captain Thomas Armstrong. Captain Armstrong would leave the Company and Regiment in 1778 to become Major in the 17th Regiment of Foot. The Company was then commanded for the balance of the war by Captain William Snow.

Detached to serve with the Second Battalion of Light Infantry the Company saw numerous engagements, Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth, Paoli, Old Tappan and others. It is difficult to establish whether the Company surrendered at Yorktown in 1781. While there is some evidence which suggests it may very well have, there is just as much evidence which seemed to place it back in the New York City area at the time. The Company participated in numerous battles as part of the Second Battalion of Light Infantry and saw heavy action throughout the New York and Pennsylvania campaigns. There is some evidence which suggests it may have been involved in various engagements in the New York City and Westchester County area’s during the last stages of the war. The recreated Light Company is fortunate to have the muster rolls of it which were taken from December 1774 through war’s end and thus can track individuals in it to some degree. We are also fortunate that among the George Washington papers was found the Orderly Book for the Company for the period which includes the battle of Brandywine as well as the action at Paoli Tavern.

With this group we wish to encourage a healthy community void of drama which is our practice due to the older age of our main player base.

We shall be training in both historical and practical methods to provide our group a sense of professionalism so every man knows his duties during events.

We will provide a competitive aspect to our gameplay. Be that accuracy through musketry or the use of bayonets.

Having fun(the whole reason we play video games to begin with)


As the game makes progress we plan on having option for all varieties of forces for our members to be able to move through so they're not stuck in one branch and can learn different way to play.

Infantry

Sharpshooters

Cavalry


Artillery


Throughout the 1st Minnesota we shall have a variety of historical ranks a player can achieve through experience and merit.

New players will almost always start off as a Recruit which will be a probationary period until deemed fit for service and promoted to Private.

Regiments / Braunschweigisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 92
« on: July 20, 2016, 07:20:29 pm »

The Brunswicker Ducal Korp or "Herzoglich Braunschweigisches Korps" in its native german tongue were a military unit in the Napoleonic Wars.
Most units of the corps wore black uniforms, leading to the "black" nicknames of the unit. The Brunswickers wore a silvered skull badge on their hats "Totenkopf". The Brunswickers were awarded various nicknames by their contemporaries, including the Black Crows, the Black Legion and the Black Horde. However, although the uniforms of the individual units that comprised the corps were, as the names suggest, predominantly black, they varied in their details. Their title originated from Duke Frederick William of Brunswick-Lüneburg.
In 1806 the Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg, Charles William Ferdinand, was fatally wounded during the Prussian defeat at the Battle of Jena-Auerstedt. Following Prussia's defeat and the collapse of the Fourth Coalition against Napoleon, his duchy remained under French control. Rather than permit the Duke's heir, Frederick William, to succeed to his father's title, Napoleon seized the duchy and, in 1807, incorporated it into his newly created model Kingdom of Westphalia ruled by his brother Jérôme. Two years later in 1809 the Fifth Coalition against Napoleon was formed between the Austrian Empire and the United Kingdom. The dispossessed Frederick William, who had been a strenuous critic of French domination in Germany, seized this opportunity to seek Austrian help to raise an armed force. To finance this venture he mortgaged his principality in Oels. In its initial incarnation (dated to 25 July 1809), the 2300-strong 'free' corps consisted of two battalions of infantry, one Jäger battalion, a company of sharpshooters, and a mixed cavalry contingent including Hussars and Uhlans.

 single infantry regiment and the hussars were maintained by the Duchy of Brunswick after the end of the Napoleonic War. In 1830, the uniform colour was changed to blue, but reverted to black in 1850. The Brunswick units were integrated into the Prussian Army in 1866 with the titles: Braunschweigisches Infanterie-Regiment Nr.92 and Braunschweigisches Husaren Regiment Nr.17 following the Prussian regimental numbering sequence. Both units kept the skull with the crossed bones on their helmets and caps and carried the battle honours "Peninsula-Sicily-Waterloo" until the end of World War I in 1918, when they were disbanded. At that time, a collection of artefacts and uniforms from the Napoleonic era were presented by the officers of the corps to the Braunschweigisches Landesmuseum, where they can be seen today.

The historic black of the Brunswick Corps was retained by the Husaren Regiment Nr.17 in full dress parade uniform until the outbreak of war in August 1914. The Brunswick Infanterie-Regiment Nr.92 however adopted the dark blue tunic of the Prussian line infantry.

The regiment was in 1870 by Colonel Henry Haberland with his adjutant second lieutenant commanded by Otto. It was divided into the First and Second. Battalion (Btl.) And the Fusilier -Leib Battalion. The individual battalions consisted of four companies . The I. Btl. Was under Major von Erichsen that II. Btl. Major Rittmeyer and body Battalion Major von Munchausen. There were only twelve Brunswick officers who were used as a lieutenant, while the remaining 36 officers' positions of reserve officers or reserve NCOs were completed. [5]

On July 16, 1870 reached at 4am the mobilization order , the district headquarters in the city of Braunschweig . On July 27, was in Blankenburg a field service held before the companies of the Leib Battalion towards Halberstadt marched off. For the rest of the regiment a service in Braunschweig was held in front of the infantry barracks in the presence of Duke Wilhelm. [6]

The battalions were on 27 July with the train to Bingerbrück transported from where they Kreuznach by the Palatinate up to Sarreguemines marched. The border with France they had in August 8 Fraunberg crosses. The infantry fought on August 16 when Mars-la-Tour , two days later at Gravelotte and St. Privat and made ​​from 19 August to 27 October the encirclement and siege of Metz with. During this time, the soldiers were called gifts of love from his native Braunschweig. These donations were by rail or post up to Courcelles transported and by the Baron von Cramm forwarded to the soldiers. Through three transports from Braunschweig and from Blankenburg troops blankets and shirts, abdominal belts, socks and tobacco received. From this example, each battalion received on September 5, 1870 around 23,000 cigars. [7] At the siege battles included in Bellevue , Orléans and Le Mans on. While the bulk of the regiment was withdrawn from further fighting, came the III. Battalion still in Chauffour, Chassillé and Saint-Jean-sur-Erve used.

After the return of the troops in the Alsace-Lorraine on 20 March 1871, the regiment was part of the Association of the newly established 15th Army Corps whose General Command in Strasbourg was. The regiment was formed with the 7th Brandenburg Infantry Regiment no. 60, the 60th Infantry Brigade Saarburg the 30th Division Metz . The command of the 15th Army Corps had General of Fransecky . Commander of the 30th Division was Major General von Sandrart and commander of the 60th Infantry Brigade Brigadier of Lehmann .

I'm aware that this bug has been stated before but i'm wondering if it will be fixed. As many of you know the character customization is buggy as hell. Sliders are all screwy and the facial hair is really buggy(can't even use some styles of beards without it reverting to another type).

Union / 1st Minnesota Volunteer Infantry
« on: April 13, 2015, 11:52:45 pm »
Time to give such a historic regiment new light in the community, since all the older ones have disbanded or are inactive.



The First Minnesota Infantry Regiment was one of the first units organized after President Lincoln's call for 75,000 troops in April, 1861. The regiment quickly filled with enthusiastic men from all parts of Minnesota and was one of the few regiments that received training by a qualified officer. Colonel Gorman was a demanding but competent taskmaster and by July, 1861 the regiment had been sent east and fought with distinction at the battle of Bull Run under Colonel Gorman's leadership. The regiment participated in all the major campaigns of the Army of the Potomac through the fall of 1863 and a portion of the command called the First Battalion was present at Appomattox, the final battle of the war. The regiment had 11 companies from larger cities and areas of the time.

The First Minnesota performed one of the most critical actions of the battle during Longstreet’s Assault of July 2nd. Sickles’ Corps was falling back in disarray and Longstreet’s men were advancing to penetrate the center of the Union line, which had been dangerously thinned to prop up other sectors. General Hancock rode up to the 1st Minnesota, the only organized Union troops at hand, pointed at the advancing Confederates, and ordered them to “Take those colors!” Their sacrificial charge against overwhelming odds halted the Confederate advance and bought time for the Union line to reform, forcing Lee into one last desperate gamble with Pickett’s Charge the next day. The survivors of the 1st Minnesota played a role in repulsing that charge as well.

Regiments / 64th (2nd Staffordshire) Regiment of Foot [recruiting][NA]
« on: February 03, 2015, 04:53:44 am »
64th (2nd Staffordshire) Regiment of Foot


The 64th Regiment of Foot began as the Second Battalion of the 11th Regiment of Foot and was formed as such in 1756. King George II determined that he preferred to have single battalions and authorized the 64th Regiment of Foot into being in 1758.

The Regiment eventually was ordered to the North American Colonies and arrived in Boston in 1768. Unrest in the Colonies was on the increase through the early 1770’s and in February 1775 Lt. Col. Alexander Leslie was ordered to Salem, Mass with some of his own 64th Regiment to confiscate arms and military stores reported to be held there. During the course of events that day one Soldier from the 64th pricked a townsman in Salem thus shedding the ‘first blood’ of the American Revolution. The 64th returned to Boston and was then stationed on Castle Island (today this is known as Fort Independence on the Boston waterline but at that time an island quite far out into Boston Harbor). The 64th did not take part in the events of April 1775 at Lexington or Concord. It was not part of the action on Breed’s (Bunker’s) Hill. The 64th Regiment was one of the last to leave Boston when the city was evacuated.

The Regiment then went to Halifax, Nova Scotia but would return to be part of the New York Garrison.

In the 64th Regiment of Foot the Company was commanded during the first part of the American Revolution by Captain Thomas Armstrong. Captain Armstrong would leave the Company and Regiment in 1778 to become Major in the 17th Regiment of Foot. The Company was then commanded for the balance of the war by Captain William Snow.

Detached to serve with the Second Battalion of Light Infantry the Company saw numerous engagements, Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth, Paoli, Old Tappan and others. It is difficult to establish whether the Company surrendered at Yorktown in 1781. While there is some evidence which suggests it may very well have, there is just as much evidence which seemed to place it back in the New York City area at the time. The Company participated in numerous battles as part of the Second Battalion of Light Infantry and saw heavy action throughout the New York and Pennsylvania campaigns. There is some evidence which suggests it may have been involved in various engagements in the New York City and Westchester County area’s during the last stages of the war. The recreated Light Company is fortunate to have the muster rolls of it which were taken from December 1774 through war’s end and thus can track individuals in it to some degree. We are also fortunate that among the George Washington papers was found the Orderly Book for the Company for the period which includes the battle of Brandywine as well as the action at Paoli Tavern.

Modifications / British Grenadier Guards 1700's [skin request]
« on: January 20, 2015, 09:17:17 am »
It would be greatly appreciated if this request would be completed, I have seen similar skins but none have been completed or the download link has not been provided. The unit in which I would like this to replace would be the 2nd Coldstream foot guards. If you are up to this project please contact me. (My company is considered "the grenadiers"(best fighters) in the regiment so I feel the skin would make them feel like grenadier elites and add some much needed variety to the units)  ;D

Regiments / 96th Northshire Light Infantry
« on: September 15, 2014, 06:48:50 am »
Introduction

Hello my fellow warriors, I would like to present the 96th Northshire Light Infantry. I personally wish to have a regiment that is disciplined during Linebattle events and fun to be around our TeamSpeak afterwards once we have finished our event that we've partook in. In due time I wish to be operating rather efficiently from my previous experiences in the 29th Worchestershire as a Seargent and the 57th as a Captain. If we are able to operate as one cohesive unit (expanding to numerous companies as we expand) we shall become a force to reckon with. As the 96th Northshire is a creation of my mind there is no regimental history to be given.
