Originally started with cracked version when NW just came out, played a lot of pubs and so was recruited in one of the first clans at that time BlackWolves or something like that lmao. Then we had a lot of switching with teammates, by making our own regiments and shit since the community was growing. In late 2012, 41stSBR people (which were considered as strongest Russian regiment on license version for many years) came on a cracked version to have fun and rekt noobs (us), it that happened, that all of them were super good in melee, in 1v1, and in shooting so they were actually farming every regiment apart from VL (Ankord's regiment). Cause of them, I got to know that there was something like a license version for which I should pay and it had a different master-server (lol). And so in 2013, many biggest regiments (with 20-30~ attendance) from cracked version moved to license version (Saints, 30th, 42nd, VL), and one of our regiment guys (I was in 42nd I believe) gave me a key of NW, so when he's not there I could play it (looool), by playing sometimes on a groupfighting server, Beorning contacted me to join Team RUS-UA for upcoming NWEC, then Shos or Xomas added me to join 41stSBR. I played one or half of a year for 41stSBR and then had a lot of breaks and was coming back only for National Cups, Beorning was messaging me each year anyway, there were some years which I didn't play even a match but was in a roster I believe. In 2016 I came back fully to a game, HooK (he was in 41stSBR and in early national teams with me) contacted me on Groupfighting Server and proposed to join my first ever groupfighting team FruitNinjas, then Miloradovich (Alice) which was in FruitNinjas forced me to play for 17thJR and so on I keep playing in this community with little breaks. So basically the first-ever regiment on license version for me was 41stSBR (inside Russian community), 17thJR (eu community), and the first-ever people which contributed me to a community were Shos, Xomas, HooK, Miloradovich and Beorning.
