69th "South Lincolnshire" Regiment of Foot

69th South Lincolnshire Community History

The Community all started on October 25th, 2015 in a mod for Mount and Blade Warband called North and South. We played North and South for about a month then switched to the Napoleonic Wars dlc as the 69th South Lincolnshire. We stayed in the Napoleonic Wars for around 6 months and hosted an event called the 69th South Lincolnshire Regimental Siege, which at its peak had 200 players. After playing the game itself for 3 years most of the NCO's and CO's were tired of Mount and Blade. The community then moved to Arma for a few years. We are no longer playing NW but have moved on to Bannerlord.

Regimental History 1758 - 1881


The formation of the regiment was prompted by the expansion of the army as a result of the commencement of the Seven Years' War. On 25 August 1756 it was ordered that a number of existing regiments should raise a second battalion, among those chosen was the 24th Regiment of Foot. The 2nd Battalion of the 24th Regiment of Foot was formed on 10 December 1756 and renumbered as the 69th Regiment of Foot on 21 April 1758. The regiment took part in the Raid on St Malo in June 1758 and the formed part of a force which successfully captured Belle Île in spring 1761. It embarked for the West Indies later that year and took part in the Invasion of Martinique in January 1762 before returning home in 1763. The regiment returned to the West Indies in November 1781 and took part in the Battle of Saint Kitts in January 1782 and, while serving as marines, at the Battle of the Saintes in April 1782. In August 1782 the regiment took a county title as the 69th (South Lincolnshire) Regiment of Foot. The regiment returned home in 1785.

Detachments from the regiment embarked as marines in early 1793 and was in combat on the third-rate HMS Leviathan at the capture of Toulon in December 1793, the attack on the Tour de Mortella in February 1794 and at the Glorious First of June in June 1794. It transferred to the third-rate HMS Agamemnon and served under Lord Nelson at the Battle of Genoa in March 1795, and then, after Nelson's transfer into the third-rate Captain in June 1796, with him at the Battle of Cape St Vincent in February 1797. At Cape St Vincent, Matthew Stevens, a soldier from the regiment, was the first to board the Spanish ship San Nicolas.

The main part of the regiment returned to the West Indies in 1796 and saw action at Santo Domingo. After returning home in 1798, the regiment took part in the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland in August 1799. It moved to Jamaica in July 1800 and returned home again in June 1802.

A second battalion was raised in 1803. The 1st battalion embarked for India in 1805 and helped to suppress the Vellore mutiny in July 1806 and the Travancore Rebellion in spring 1809. It went on to see action during the Invasion of Île Bonaparte in July 1811, the Invasion of Isle de France in December 1810 and the Invasion of Java in August 1811.

Meanwhile the 2nd battalion embarked for Holland in 1813 and took part in the Siege of Bergen op Zoom in March 1814. It served at the Battle of Quatre Bras and the Battle of Waterloo. At Waterloo the King's Colour was captured by the enemy and Lieutenant-Colonel Charles Morice, commanding officer of the battalion was killed in a French cavalry charge. The two battalions amalgamated again in 1816.

Good Luck
Can I just say that I’m really impressed with the cav community, 10x more mature than the inf community and a lot less tolerant of the cancerous players

All my life I’ve been fearful of defeat. But now that it has come it’s not near as terrible as I’d expected. The sun still shines, water still tastes good…glory is all well and good but life is enough, nay?
