6th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry Regiment [NA]

[Andee]

Gluk can suck my toes

The 6th Wisconsin was raised at Madison, Wisconsin, and mustered into Federal service July 16, 1861 for a term of three years. It saw severe fighting in the 1862 Northern Virginia Campaign, fighting at Brawner's Farm during the early part of the Second Battle of Bull Run. During the subsequent Maryland Campaign, the 6th attacked Turner's Gap in the Battle of South Mountain, and then suffered considerable casualties battling Hood's Texas Brigade in the D.R. Miller cornfield at Antietam.
During the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg on July 1, 1863, Lt. Col. Rufus R. Dawes led a counterattack on Joseph R. Davis's Confederate brigade of Mississippians, many of which were sheltered in an unfinished railroad cut west of town. The 6th forced the surrender of over 200 enemy soldiers. The regiment later served that year in the Bristoe and Mine Run Campaigns.
The regiment participated in the Grand Review of the Armies on May 23, 1865, and then mustered out at Louisville, Kentucky on July 2, 1865. The 6th Wisconsin Infantry initially mustered 1029 men and later recruited an additional 601 men, for a total of 1,630 men. The regiment lost 16 officers and 228 enlisted men killed in action or who later died of their wounds, plus another 1 officer and 112 enlisted men who died of disease, for a total of 357 fatalities

I understand that people are enthousiastic to create a lot of regiments but it's a problem if they had "reserved" a regiment, even if they're not enough active. Maybe he's waiting the release without being here, maybe he's inactive. Maybe you should send him a mp to have more details before, to avoid an useless drama.

I don't know if he's a troll or not, but maybe if Andree send him a mp and have no answer for a certain time, we might consider that he's absolutely inactive ? Nevertheless, I agree with you about the fact that someone wants to "reserve" a whole brigade without being active.

he may be waiting release of the game

I had this regiment reserved since 2015 for bcof. The mods purged the regiment board, I didn't see it, and Gluk reserved the entire iron brigade. With the recent BCoF alpha tests I remade my thread but immediately decided against it.

I don't give a shit whether hes active or not. If hes going to reserve an entire brigade for his 6 members, I'm not going to give it any legitimacy nor should anyone else.

It's not about "giving a shit or not", it's about the way of doing things. As I have said, I understand what you explain, but it's not highly costly to send a mp to explain him your situation. Avoiding an useless drama would be nice.... to avoid a shitty reputation for BCOF new community.......

Lol, if you only focus on how many post I have written, it will not help you to analyse if I'm active or not ^^ Maybe I'm not really so active on FSE and I don't spam on every threads but I may be very active during events with my corps on NW with another RP name ? 

i don't want to be "the white knight" lol, but I must be too old to being precautious.... ^^
