♣151e Regiment d'Infanterie de Ligne [NA/EU-Recruiting]♣

[Colonel Howe]

March of the 151e

Spoiler

The entire flag of France
They've sworn that none will pass.
[Refrain]
It's the one hundred and fifty-one
Which is never afraid of anything
On the signal it throws itself forward
Our fine regiment
Drums, horns sound off
Join the canons
Make the bronze hearts resonate
Of the one hundred and fifty-one.
And the vets face the gunfire
Magnificent, braving death
Have proved well in a myriad of battles
To the enemy that none will pass.
[Refrain]

Sons forged in victory
We know in future battles
To offer our chests to glory
Repeating, none will pass.
[Last Refrain]

Listen to this while scrolling (it's not French or WWI-esque but it's a great song of camaraderie!)

Regimental Philosophy/Rules (Very Important)

Spoiler

As a longtime regimental leader in NW, NaS and for awhile in B&I, I have come across multiple kinds of people and personalities and leading structures. At the end of the day, this is a game and we plan to enjoy it and have fun. PTS will be upheld lightly provided that the system is not abused. If we're not in combat, feel free to talk and joke at a regular level but when in combat, reduce it so people can hear orders. What I, and I can agree what 98% of people, want is to avoid regimental drama. We want to avoid backstabbing, breaking off, big debates, talk power, power hungry assholes, obsessing over promotions and sore losers. So, don't be an asshole. If your obsessed with virtual gratification, winning and strictness, then this is not the place for you. We want a laid back, fun experience that even if we lose, everyone leaves feeling happy. In making post-battle promotional and structural decisions, we act as a democracy. Everyone is allowed to voice their opinions and cast their votes provided that they attend the meeting. If you don't attend the meeting, don't get mad when a decision you don't like is implemented. I am very open to suggestions in battle on how to act as long as they are delivered in a calm manner. That's really it. So don't be an asshole and have fun!

*Note: We understand, like any sensible human being, that you have a life and wil be absent from time to time. We respect that and try to work around it. The same respect and flexibility is expected with our officers who also have lives.
