2nd "Georgian" Brigade

Lead by real Georgians!

About us
We are a more serious regiment when it comes to activity and trainings. You have probably seen training videos for other regiments where people are dancing in unison, or having mass fist fights. This is not one of them. At our training we train formations, discipline and combat skills. In order to remain an active member of this regiment you are required to make it to at least one training per week under normal circumstances so that you actually learn something and keep your skills honed.

Our interest is in being the most professional regiment around and thanks to the skills and experience of our officers this is definitely possible. If you are able to act in a mature manner during trainings and events, if you ACTUALLY want to learn how to fight with the best of them, and if you like the idea of a disciplined and organized fighting unit, then you have found the correct regiment!

Ranks of the Regiment
Colonel (COL):He is in charge of the entire Regiment. The god who giveth us our supper and alloweth us life...etc.
Lieutenant Colonel (LTCOL): Lieutenant Colonels are expected to be able to use the regimental formations with ease and effectiveness, and without error.
Ensign (ENS): Officer in training, we falls in as a ranker when he is not needed but when he is needed as second in command, then he will do so.
Sergeant Major (SGM): Sergeant major is a non-commissioned rank, and is the most superior none commissioned officer, and in our ranking system.
Sergeant (SGT): Sergeants are the elite troops of the regiment. Mistake is not part of their vocabulary. This is the highest non-officer rank.
Corporal (CPL): Corporals have advanced their melee skills to an elite status. They hardly ever miss-block, they can chamber in normal combat situations, they can feint attack effectively.
Private (PVT): A Privates is expected to be able to follow our regimental rules and show good discipline. This includes showing up to all training and events OR tell an officer they will not show up.
Recruit (RCT): Recruits are in a trial period. This is when both the Recruit himself and the regiment can see whether or not they like one another.
Supernumerarie (SPN): These are, members of which are in a way inactive, they do not need to say if they will show up to training, and will remain in this rank until further notice from them. They can show up to reinforce us during events or random play, but better expect to be treated as a recruits for the time they remain this rank.

-In the case of two members holding the same rank, seniority determines who is in charge. Seniority will be shown on the roster, whoever is higher up has seniority.​

How ranks apply
-First officer: The highest ranking officer present is the First Officer. He is in charge of giving orders and ensuring that the lower ranks do their jobs correctly.

-Second officer: The second highest ranking officer present is the Second Officer. He is to stay alive and notify the First officer of any enemy movements. He will take over if the First officer is killed or in anyway unable to lead.

-First Sergeant: He is in charge of keeping the discipline and may use physical force to keep it! (punching, kicking, stabbing, killing etc.) Fear the second officer!

-Second Sergeant: He is to take the First Sergeants position if he is unable to continue his job.

-Other officers: All other officers present, sergeant and higher, are NOT allowed to use physical force to keep discipline, but should vocally tell players when they are doing something wrong and help the First Sergeant to catch soldiers who are doing something stupid or being undisciplined.

So what DO we expect from our members?
1. You must obviously be willing to use Teamspeak in order to hear orders and be a real part of the group.
2. You must be able to attend at least one training per week under normal circumstances.
3. When not attending trainings or events you are required to set your status to not attending on our website calender. (How this works will be made clear enough and takes only a few seconds)
4. During line battles and training you must be able to keep relatively quiet.

What do we give to new members?
1. Training in range, melee, and formations.
2. A group of people ready to join onto random games, or a mod on mount&blade warband with you.
3. A group of officers, that are willing to hear you out on what you have to say, and are experienced in leading people. (Over 3 years of leading regiments on mount&musket, and Napoleonic Wars.
4. The ability to do line battles, and the sort.​

The Rules
-Be kind! Don't descriminate against or insult others. We are here to have a good time and we pride ourselves on being an international regiment. Open your mind and learn something!

-Do not cheat or do annoying things on the server. Examples: Fake surrender, running away as the last man alive on your team, arguing with people in the game chat. As a member of this regiment your actions reflect on us, don't be an idiot, we will destroy you.

-We use Teamspeak, we are a close regiment and we expect our members to be on Teamspeak with us when playing mods with us. Most of us are on Teamspeak when playing other games as well.

-Stay informed! We expect our members to check this forum regularly.
The Discipline Standards
-Soldiers who do not meet our disciplinary standards will be removed from the regiment. This is our number one requirement for members. If you are given a direct order that goes against this list that is the only time it is ok.

-Believe it or not, kicking, punching, stabbing, or killing team members, in training, or on a public server is bad for discipline. I shouldn't have to say this, if you think this is ok, leave the regiment and save us all some time. The first and second officers are the exception to this rule in order to better enforce discipline as stated above.

-Showing up at trainings is important. If you are not going to show up to an official training you have to inform us about it.

-Following orders without question or complaint. We know your all military geniuses and that your ideas are fool-proof, but your suggestions have no place on the battlefield unless you ask respectfully and very rarely. Too many people having better ideas and second guessing command in battle is obviously not good. Feel free to make suggestions on this forum or via personal messages all you want.

-Being respectful and kind to your fellow members is important. We are not here to argue and insult one another in our free time. Being an ass to people will not get you far in this regiment, or allow you to stay in it for that matter.

-It is important to keep talking on Teamspeak to a minimum during Trainings and Events. People want to hear the orders clearly and leave the training/event without a headache. Be smart about your use of Teamspeak during these times.

-Our regiment is international, we have lots of members from around the world. As such we use English to communicate with each other both on our taleworlds forum and on Teamspeak. If you want to speak otherwise please use steam or use a private message on taleworlds. We are a friendly regiment, try your english, nobody will be mean to you.

Organization
-Names should follow this structure, both on Teamspeak and in game: 7thGA_Name_RANK

-All Recruits and higher must use the Regiments banner (see below):

Well ****e.

You're aware that the South was the more educated part of the nation in the 1860s, right?

Good luck regardless, you've chosen a damn fine regiment.

"My God, boys, they have got me, but never give up the field." - Brigadier General (Colonel at the time) Francis S. Bartow, whilst at the head of the 7th Georgia Volunteer Infantry; his last words.

What does that mean? There was never a georgian regiment.. just with the name Georgia :wink:
 
Depending on what book your reading it shows up in many various forms:

7th Georgia Infantry
7th Georgia Volunteer Infantry
7th Georgian Infantry Regiment
7th Regiment Infantry Georgia
7th Regiment Georgia Volunteer infantry
7th Regiment Georgia Infantry
7th Georgian Volunteers

So I wouldn't worry bout that.

Unfortunately we aren't the 7th US infantry regiment during the Civil War. Although that regiment was formed in 1812 in Georgia and Tennessee, it was reformed in Ohio during the Civil war and fought for the North. Seems they fought against some Texans at Mesilla in 1861 as part of the union side. http://civilwarintheeast.com/USA/US/US07.php
Seems according to that anyways, that the 8th infantry regiment from 1812 is todays 7th. Though thats not the more common opinion.

Anyways concerning the 7th Georgia Infantry:

Something interesting is that the well known quote: “There is Jackson standing like a stone wall.” was made by Colonel Bee who was commanding the 7th Georgia Infantry at the time.

Alright, well I am at least happy the regiment was a very much Georgian one. Cottonbalers was catchy but we will have to change the name.  :roll:
Anyway, thanks for the info about the regiment. See you on the battlefield Vulkaan, look forward to killing together again, like we did yesterday!  :wink:

Yes, I know that stuff and this is the reason why I choosed the 7th Georgia as a new infantry class in the next patch.
But that 7th GeorgiaN still hurts my eyes, but its the decision of the unit leader.

Ingame it will be called 7th Georgia Volunteer Infantry.

No.

The 7th Georgia Volunteer Infantry was under the command of Colonel Lucius Jeremiah Gartrell, the man who originally raised the regiment.

Brigadier General Bee commanded the Third Brigade of the Army of the Shenandoah, whilst the Seventh Georgia was in the Second, under the command of a Colonel Francis S. Bartow, who is a much more heroic figure in my eyes. He died leading the 7th down the barrels of Sherman's battery, and had lost his horse before then, whilst the 8th was standing against six to ten enemy regiments.

If its the 7th Georgia Volunteer Infantry in game then I suppose it should be called the same here.

By the way, I didn't go off on all that info on the 7th to try and be a smart ass or explain anything to you, I'm just in this regiment and was handing some links and my findings to Andreas is all. :wink: :grin:
Georgian is just the correct way to say it out loud. You wouldn't call it the 7th Germany Regiment after all, but the 7th German Regiment instead. Although on paper and lists etc they do tend to write things strangely. :roll:
