About us
The 2tes Das Zweites Ostpreußisches Batalion is a newly formed NA Prussian line infantry battalion. We were founded by a group of friends experienced with this time period. We thrive to create a historically accurate unit, with a proper ranking system, proper training, and most of all, proper battle tactics. We are a unit that asks for your cooperation in making this unit as historically accurate as possible. 
What we are looking for
We are looking for people who are disciplined, loyal, mature, and, most importantly, will be active members of the 2tes Das Zweites Ostpreußisches Batalion.
Your level of skill will not matter. If you are already skilled at Napoleonic Wars, perfect. If not, that's fine, we will train you to become better.
