KIs the 2nd Maine wrong lol? Because that photo looks like a freekin southerner...

Ehhm... no?!

The mod is called "First Manassas". Many union regiments (about 25 %) used grey as their main uniform color in 1861, nearly all New York regiments for example.
While lot of southern regiments used their pre-war blue uniform.

So its not wrong at all.

Thats the regular New York volunteer in 1861:

get rekt

Ireland is the new/old "im not good enough to join the gb team". Look, there were 2-3 irish players and one of them left because it's full of brits. #GiveIrelandBackToTheIrish 

Ye, only players of ireland should be allowed to join them because it is a tournament of souvereign nations (that's why no wales) an NI belongs to the UK.

I concur

I have a suggestion for the EU-Part of the Event.

Can you make the EU-Part at 20 gmt instead of 21 gmt? I think this time could be better for EU players.

That wouldnt really work as many EU players also have NW events from 7gmt-8gmt and there would be no time to get people on ts, sign up on ts etc.

Brief History

In the spring of 1862, a call was made by the Federal government for more troops. The Civil War had been in progress for more than a year, and the 116th Pennsylvania, recruited principally from Philadelphia, was one of the regiments then authorized. Tipperary born Dennis Heenan, a man of years of prewar militia experience who had also served as Lt. Col. of the Irish 24th Pennsylvania Militia in the early months of the war, was chosen as Colonel. Though a young man in his early twenties, Antrim native St. Clair A. Mulholland, also of militia experience and described as an "excellent drill instructor," had raised two companies for the regiment and was appointed Lt. Colonel. George H. Bardwell was selected as Major.
Toward the end of August of 1862, the One-sixteenth mustered approximately seven hundred men. Although still under-strength, the regiment was ordered, due to General Banks' defeat and hasty retreat down the Shenandoah Valley, to move to Washington without delay. For the next month the regiment was shuffled back and forth between Maryland, Washington and northern Virginia, engaged in drill, fatigue, guard and picket duties. The regiment was then ordered to report to Harper's Ferry, Virginia, and on October 10th, joined Brig. General Thomas F. Meagher's famed Irish Brigade.
The regiment's first engagements, Charlestown and Snicker's Gap, would be minor, producing no serious injuries or fatalities, and not in any way preparing the the men for their first taste of real war--the futile and tragic assault on Marye's Heights at the battle of Fredericksburg, Virginia, on December 13, 1862. At the close of the battle, most of the One-sixteenth's field and company officers were killed or wounded, with severe losses in the ranks. The new regiment never wavered and fought like veterans, establishing the reputation for courage and discipline that that would be their hallmark throughout the war.
After Fredericksburg the decimated One-sixteenth was consolidated into a battalion of four companies, Mulholland accepting a demotion to major to remain in command. The unit bravely fought through the remaining battles of 1863 as a battalion, cited for gallantry for recovering the guns of the 5th Maine Battery at Chancellorsville, an action that earned Col. Mulholland the Medal of Honor.

Engagements

-Battle of Fredricksburg, Va. 1862
-Chancellorsville, Va. 1863
-Gettysburg, Pa. 1863
-Petersburg, Va. 1864
-Battle of Fair Oaks, Va. 1864
-Appomattox, Va. 1865

This regiment was formed on the 4th of May 2015, I only decided to make the forum thread recently.
