19te would be rather close I guess. They were around before the 77y at least. Not sure what their comparison is towards the IVe.

We've been around for 4 yrs. 5 mo.  EPI are probably the longest active NW regiment from the NA, being from late 2010 (so that would be 4 yrs. 11 mo. or thereabouts).  However, I believe there may be one or two older regiments.  If that is not the case, then the EPI would be the the "reigning champs".

The 1er gren always claimed to be oldest NA reg. don't know if it counts tho because they disbanded and just recently reformed.

I doubt it's accurate. Atleast, I believe it was formed by Frederickson quite some time after the 1er Gren themselves were created and considering the 1stEPI seems to have been around the same time as the 1er Gren. It would be the 1stEPI.

Is Joshly still around? (If I say the name right)
About the EPI: They're still around? I recall going to their NA linebattles years ago, with their custom map events... As well I  always loved their threads.  :P

That is a good question - I'm not sure if it does either.  Ahh well, no biggie. ;)

That's correct!  He is, albeit less active.  He left for a while and Patriot, former Oberleutnant, took over the ropes as Hauptmann.  Patriot's been in the current role for close to two years now or so.

EPI are still around, yes. They've "relinquished" ties to the EU community and haven't done as many custom events. They'll be at the army v army this evening! ;)

I'll ask the same question - how did the 18tes come about?

Formed as an Regiment in BG2 in 2009. In the end of 2010 we changed to MM.
On 2012(NW release) our final change until now.

Next change is planned...

Fair point Blue - I was never around for it, but I've been told that BG2 was a nice precursor to the MM/NW scene.

Same thing here, agreed there.

I've heard of it through mates in the first couple of regiments I was in. Who always spoke of it as we "vets" speak of MM. So it must have been a great time.

But yeah. We all miss the good old times.  :'(

Didnt realise the TRR were still kicking, then they must be the oldest without doubt.

The TRR formed in 2004 in BG1 as a sort of "training" regiment for its father regiment, the King's Royal Rifles (KRR), which formed in 2002. You can find a full timeline here: http://z7.invisionfree.com/TheRoyalRecruits/index.php?showtopic=2000&st=0

I think the 8th in NA is like 5 years old and still doing events
nah it's not true , they dont actually show any proof of that, I know that the 1stEPI is the oldest active NA regiment.
