The 55th Regiment of foot is second to none. Our mission goals and beliefs are clear. We are to become the best regiment in the European community. Every single month we are focused on improving our ability to groupfight and utilize teamwork to create an extremely dominant advantage over our teams so that we are successful. Training and dedication to the game is an integral part of the 55th. Also we have tons of fun, the people in this regiment provide plenty of laughs throughout the day. We are very clear who we are and because of that it gives us an advantage over every single other regiment. | Within the game we are serious, disciplined and deadly. Outside of the game we have fun, we laugh and we enjoy life with each other. Especially during the time of the coronavirus with everybody inside, this regiment provides a compelling story to enjoy in the meantime. We do not accept players who are not excited about this game. We do not accept players who are not committed on seeing this regiment grow and become the best that it can possibly become. This regiment is not for the weak minded, this regiment is for people who want to be the best. |
AMERICAN REVOLUTIONARY WAR & NAPOLEONIC WARS 1776 - 1814 The regiment returned to North America for the American Revolutionary War. The regiment fought at the Battle of Long Island in August 1776 and the Battle of Princeton in January 1777. It went on to take part in the Philadelphia campaign and saw action at the Battle of Brandywine in September 1777, the Battle of Paoli later that month and the Battle of Germantown in October 1777. The regiment was transferred to the West Indies in November 1778 and saw action at the Battle of St. Lucia in December 1778. Most of the regiment were captured at the siege of Brimstone Hill in February 1782 during the French invasion of Saint Kitts. The regiment adopted a county designation as the 55th (the Westmorland) Regiment of Foot in August 1782. In 1793 the regiment embarked for Flanders for service in the French Revolutionary Wars and saw action at the siege of Ypres in June 1794. It then moved to the West Indies and took part in the attack on Martinique in February 1794, on Saint Lucia in April 1794 and on Guadeloupe later that month as well as the capture of Saint Lucia in May 1796. It also helped suppress an insurrection by caribs on Saint Vincent in June 1796. After returning to England in 1797 the regiment landed at Ostend in 1798 for service in the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland. It saw action at the Battle of Bergen in September 1799 and the Battle of Alkmaar in October 1799. After returning home in 1800 the regiment was deployed to the West Indies again in 1800 and went to the aid of Britain's new found Spanish allies during the Spanish reconquest of Santo Domingo in July 1809. The regiment returned home in 1812 and, having been sent to Holland in 1813, took part in the siege of Bergen op Zoom in March 1814 |
VICTORIAN ERA 1819 - 1864 The regiment sailed for the Cape of Good Hope in 1819 and saw action in the Fifth Xhosa War. It also served in the Coorg War in 1834. In 1841 the regiment was deployed to China for service in the First Opium War. It was selected as part of the expeditionary force that moved north from Hong Kong and participated in the Battle of Amoy in August 1841. The regiment was the first to land when British forces disembarked from boats at the Capture of Chusan in October 1841. It landed on a beach and then assaulted an enemy strong point called Guards Hill, where it ascended under heavy fire but eventually took the hill. It then proceeded to take the heights overlooking Tinghai and then immediately descended and placed its regimental colours on the walls of the city. After the battle, a detachment of the 55th and 18th Regiment of Foot were left to garrison the city. On 10 October 1841 the 55th again was part of the force that engaged Qing troops at the Battle of Chinhai: the regiment was left to garrison the city after the battle and remained there for the remainder of the year. In 1842, the regiment saw action at Chapu in May, and Chinkiang in July. It then garrisoned Chinkiang until the Treaty of Nanking was signed. Part of the regiment remained in Hong Kong after the war. For its service during the war it was allowed the addition of a dragon badge superscribed "China" on its regimental colour. The regiment saw active service in Turkey and Russia during the Crimean War. The regiment saw action at the Battle of Alma in September 1854, the Battle of Inkerman in November 1854 and the siege of Sevastopol in winter 1854. After returning home in 1857 it was deployed to India in 1863 and saw action during the Bhutan War in 1864. |
DECONSTRUCTION Mount and blade is a series of skills that all form one overarching skill. Your ability to perform. In the regiment we train beginners to pros using effective strategies. First we teach the fundamentals of blocking, chambering, blockchambering, footwork, force glancing, and holds. STAKES We have the audacious goal of becoming the best EU. We will make a fundamental mark on the community and this regiment will create many high level players in a short period of time. If this sounds like fun, join through adding any of our CO's and NCO's on steam. | SEQUENCING People never truly are taught warband they can only be encouraged and guided. However the path to becoming the best is laid out simply. First master the game by practicing it in pieces rather than the whole system. The Officers will give you suggestions on how to improve. SELECTION Out of all the things you can learn to become the most effective player in the regiment you must have two things in mind.Teamplay is the core and foundation of all we do. We live and die by our weakest player. |
