| History
The 8Lr is a line infantry regiment who aim to become one of the best English speaking regiments, we recruit anyone who can speak English and is willing to obey commands as well as being as active/semi-active as they can be. We will do multiple events a week such as 1v1's, 2v2's and training as well as some multiple-regiment linebattles in order to keep the regiment at a competitive standard. We will focus our skills into melee to be the main aspect of our regiments skill. Members of the regiment can of course use a historical name but we will not force you to use one. Also in the 8Le we will not only play NW or even only M&B:Warband, we will have a gaming community for other games such as Payday 2, CS:GO and Mercenaries.
