About Us


The 1st Royal Marines were established on the 20th of October, 2015 and has had multiple resets over the course of time. We've gone by the 1st Royal Marines on Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars, The Knights Templar on Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord and now the USMC/1stRM for Battle Cry of Freedom. The regiment is known more for its activity and service within the public community of Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars notably the "1stRM Event", which took place every Tuesday and Friday from 3/23/16 - 1/13/17. As for our competitive record we held a modest number of 1vs1 victories but in general we were casual and by no means a tier one regiment. We have a wide interest in games but typically favor historical oriented ones. We are a pretty welcoming group but would like to keep the recruitment of new members around the age of 18 and up. (Exceptions can be made to this but we will take it on a case by case basis.)

When we can we have events usually from 7-8pm (US Central Time).

History


On 5 April 1755, His Majesty's Marine Forces, fifty Companies in three Divisions, headquartered at Chatham, Portsmouth, and Plymouth, were formed by Order of Council under Admiralty control. Initially all field officers were Royal Navy officers as the Royal Navy felt that the ranks of Marine field officers were largely honorary. This meant that the furthest a Marine officer could advance was to Lieutenant Colonel. It was not until 1771 that the first Marine was promoted to Colonel. This attitude persisted well into the 1800s. During the rest of the 18th century, they served in numerous landings all over the world, the most famous being the landing at Bellisle on the Brittany coast in 1761. They also served in the American War of Independence, being particularly courageous in the Battle of Bunker Hill led by Major John Pitcairn.

In 1802, largely at the instigation of Admiral the Earl St. Vincent, they were titled the Royal Marines by King George III. The Royal Marines Artillery (RMA) was formed as a separate unit in 1804 to man the artillery in bomb ketches. These had been manned by the Army's Royal Regiment of Artillery, but a lawsuit by a Royal Artillery officer resulted in a court decision that Army officers were not subject to Naval orders. As RMA uniforms were the blue of the Royal Regiment of Artillery they were nicknamed the "Blue Marines" and the Infantry element, who wore the scarlet uniforms of the British infantry, became known as the "Red Marines", often given the semi-derogatory nickname "Lobsters" by sailors.

During the Napoleonic Wars the Royal Marines participated in every notable naval battle on board the Royal Navy's ships and also took part in multiple amphibious actions. Marines had a dual function aboard ships of the Royal Navy in this period; routinely, they ensured the security of the ship's officers and supported their maintenance of discipline in the ship's crew, and in battle, they engaged the enemy's crews, whether firing from positions on their own ship, or fighting in boarding actions.
