History:
           In 1689, Henry, Duke of Norfolk, raised a regiment on the little Roodee at Chester, in an effort to resist any attempt by James II to re-take the English throne. For the early part of its formation, the regiment was known by the name of the current Colonel-in-Chief, later becoming known as the 22nd Regiment of Foot. In the same year that it was raised, the regiment saw its first action as part of a British force sent to Ireland under the command of General Frederick Schomberg, 1st Duke of Schomberg, taking part in the siege and capture of Carrickfergus. In 1690, the 22nd fought in the Battle of Boyne, and in 1691 at the Battle of Aughrim. The regiment continued to serve as a garrison in Ireland from this point until 1695, when it was sent to the Low Countries for a short time before returning to its duties in Ireland.By 1751 the regiment had become the 22nd Foot, having previously been called after its successive colonels. In 1758 it formed part of Lord Amhest's expedition against the fortress of Louisberg in French Canada. The following year the regiment took part in General Wolfe's victory over the French at Quebec. The 22nd Foot received two battle honours for taking part in the capture of Martinique and the British expedition against Cuba during 1762. After home service the regiment was sent to America in 1775. Having embarked in advance of the rest of the regiment at the request of Colonel Gage, Lt. Col. Abercrombie arrived in Boston just before the Battle of Bunker Hill, where he was killed in action. The regiment later evacuated from Boston to Halifax and then onto the New York and New Jersey campaigns of 1776. Its Light Infantry Company participated in the Philadelphia Campaign of 1777 and later the Southern Campaigns in the 1780s, eventually surrendering with Cornwallis at Yorktown. The Battalion Company's occupied Newport Rhode Island, participating in the Battle of Rhode Island, eventually returning to New York City in 1779 and surrounding territory where the bulk of the regiment would remain until the end of the War, participating most notably at the First Battle of Springfield in early June 1780.

Will the sappers be capable of building barbed wire?

WWI used miles and mile and miles of barbed wire. Why not put it in?

We have a new formation. Since Lieutenant Dwarf is made of metal and attracts cannon balls, he has been incorporated to be 30 meters away from the main line. Lol.

I felt sorry for Dwarf, he kept getting killed by cannons constantly. Once he spawned ran like 5 feet and got hit again. Pro Tip: Stay away from Dwarf in LB's with cannons.

Two things actually:
1) We're in a Private LB with the EQFL, we find some mushrooms and act like we're eating them. We keep winning everytime we do that. *burping/farting sound in TS later comes up* Me: Did someone just fart? That's lovely... Dwarf: Those shrooms get to you.
2) Our regiment now has a new thing. Say something before putting "2013". Main one: Audiate 2013.

Walko he's just being creative. And you never know, maybe he wanted to make a Battalion and be the head of it. Napoleon was an Emperor and General. It is just a game after all. Let people be creative and do whatever they want. (Unless they're breaking the rules ).

Very succesful one as cav (I think, never used it xD) is, when you are dragoons, charge in a V-ish formation against infantry, and when you see the infantry forming square, halt the charge (the V should become more or less a line), draw muskets, and fire in the square. After you killed a lot of them with your awesomesauce volley, you charge in to take them out.

Wow that actually seems like a really great idea! Of course you will definitely need some drilling on stopping so suddenly and do it effectively as well.

I've always loved the 42nd Highlanders (Black Watch). One thing that's weird with them though, is the legs are REALLY tan and the rest of the body is pale as an Irishman!

It was 5-0, the first round was before our server went back up, and both sides agreed to putting it to the side.

Oh. Nevermind, we did even better than I thought!
