Regimental Information
Spoiler
Our regiment focuses on accurately representing the British army during the early 19th century. Our common goal is to use their discipline, formations, and tactics, whilst applying them in battle and in training.
Whilst other regiments may focus purely on combat, or on forming historical formations, a soldier from the 20th regiment knows how and when to apply each in battle.
If you are looking for an authentic regiment in which discipline, structure, and organization are unified, the East Devonshire's 20th might be the right regiment for you.

The 20th Foot at the Battle of Inkerman, by David Rowlands
The 20th Regiment of Foot was designated the East Devonshire Regiment in 1782. The 2nd Battalion was raised in 1858. During the Napoleonic Wars the 20th Foot fought in several early campaigns before serving with distinction in the Peninsular War, their performance was particularly noted at the Battle of Vittoria where they formed part of the "backbone" of the Duke of Wellington's forces. During the Crimean War, in 1854, they took part in the two major battles of Alma and Inkerman.
