| Welcome to the 17e Régiment d'Infanterie de Ligne We are a community and NW (Napoleonic Wars) based regiment, as a community we do more that just go on NW for linebattles, we play other video games outside of Mount and Blade and spend alot of our time hanging out in teamspeak.
There is a long story pertaining to the existance of the 17e however before we were the 17e our first name was 1stFKI (1. Lutzow's Freikorp Infanterie
Bataillon) and then the 4th "King's Own" Regiment of Foot. The Regiment was founded by Dodge, Jabknife and Nutkilla who were friends that had met in their previous regiment, the 12e. Over time with hard work and careful management we grew and prospered however in the 1stFKI our administration was far different from what it is now, in the 1stFKI organisation was little and trolls were the main body of the regiment, after 2 months the regiment was renamed when the trolls were kicked out and a new system was set up, the whole point of renaming was there was a need to make sure that others thought of this as a fresh start for the better of the regiment. To this day we continue to grow stronger, bigger and disciplined to ensure that while we play NW we are respectable.
