What is the 29th? Clan History​

                                                                                                                                                                     


The 29th Brigade has over 3 years linebattling experience. The origins of the Brigade started as the 29th Worcestershire Regiment of Foot in the game “Battlegrounds 2”, partly formed by the current Lord and Patron of the Brigade, Bravo. A large number of players from the Battlegrounds clan have since moved over to Mount & Blade: Napoleonic Wars and we have pulled them back together to form the 29th Brigade. The Brigade is based around the 29th Worcestershire Regiment of Foot as the bulk of our infantry with attachment companies of Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery.

We are a Brigade that prides itself on strong discipline and teamwork more than individual skill to overcome the enemy, whilst maintaining a relaxed, friendly and sociable environment. We train each week and will attend 2-3 events per week.

The Brigade Consists of 4 main elements; Headquarters, the 29th Worcestershire Regiment of Foot, Artillery Company and a Cavalry Company.  The Regiment of Foot can be broken down into 3 smaller companies; Grenadier Company, Line Company and a Light Company.

[size=14pt]History of the 29th​

​

The 29th Brigade is an expansion of the 29th Worcestershire Regiment of foot. The Worcestershire Regiment dates back to 1694 when Colonel Thomas Farrington, an officer of the Coldstream Guards raised a new regiment in London. It was then the custom for Regiments to be named after their Colonels, and this new Regiment was named Farrington’s Regiment of Foot. This method of naming regiments led to confusion, as regiments were re-named with each Colonel, and it was possible for more than one Colonel, and therefore more than one regiment, to have the same name. Until 1751, the Regiment had eight different Colonels, and therefore eight different names. In 1751 regiments were given numbers, and the Regiment was numbered 29.

In 1768 the 29th along with the 14th Regiment of Foot were sent to Boston, Massachusetts, where on the evening of 5 March 1770, men of the 29th Grenadier Company under the command of Captain Thomas Preston took part in the Boston Massacre. Five colonists died during the riot in front of the Boston customs house. Due to the incident, the regiment earned the nickname the Vein Openers for drawing first blood in the American Revolution.

I wish you the best of luck sir! May you do well in NW.

 

[Junky]

Thank you very much, we look forward to seeing you on the battlefield

As do I =)

**NOTE**
We are aware there is already a 29th Worcestershire Regiment of Foot in the Napoleonic Wars community. HOWEVER, as this Brigade, and sub-division of the same name has been set up with FULL backing of ALL founders of the original 29th from Battlegrounds 2 and consists of a large number of original members, we entirely reject their claim to the entitlement to bear the name of the 29th Worcestershire Regiment of Foot. The founder of the unit known only as “29th Worcestershire Regiment of Foot” was an ex private of the battlegrounds 2 clan and has no support of ANY other original 29th member. That unit has nothing to do with the “29th Brigade” and we will have no interaction with that Regiment of any sort.[/font]

They made the regiment before you. Rightfully had the name. The Regiment has been around for 5 or so months.

However as long as your tags are different then your good.

 

[Caulaincourt]

Good luck !

 

[Lucckt]

@Millander, 1 private from the 29th Regiment in Battlegrounds set up the regiment in NW without consent from any members of the 29th. He "stole" the name and mocked us (the original 29th from which he came) with it. Obviously it is fair to say he had the name in NW first, and if thats your measure to say they should use it then, yes they should. But the fact a private from a regiment of the same name deserted and made it on NW without anyone saying he could I find is completely disrespectful. Yes it shouldn't be a problem as we are the 29th Brigade, and not regiment, but it is the history of all of the members of the Brigade to have played in the Regiment, that was nothing to do with the regiment that was "first" on NW. It is more a matter of honour than of owning the name.

So a member cant leave and make a clan in a different game?

But the fact a private from a regiment of the same name deserted and made it on NW without anyone saying he could I find is completely disrespectful.

I wouldn't call leaving a clan deserting. A Long with if he isnt in your clan why cant he make a clan for a different game when you at the time had no ententions of making a unit for it at the time?

 

[Lucckt]

I agree, its ok to make another clan in another game or even the same game, but to use the SAME name as the clan he was just in? Really? It wasn't so much the fact he used the name in NW but more that he used it to laugh in our face. We would have no problem if he was co-operative and understood that members of the original unit from Battlegrounds were against it, and we did ask him to change the name. Every member of the 29th community from Battlegrounds where he came from does not recognise his unit. It's the same as say, Microsoft starting in America, and then an employee goes to Europe and makes a company of exactly the same doing the same thing, despite being told not to, it's just not right. If it was someone who had no association with the original BG unit there would be no problem, more an unfortunate coincident, but it is no coincidence and it's disrespectful to all the current and former members of the clan he came from to bear the name, even if it's not "illegal".

 

[Commander Millander]

SAME name as the clan he was just in? Really? It wasn't so much the fact he used the name in NW but more that he used it to laugh in our face.

I Highly doubt he did this to laugh in your face. Nor do I doubt your community was enraged when he started in Mount and Musket.

Every member of the 29th community from Battlegrounds where he came from does not recognise his unit.

Im sure we have established the fact that you dont like this. However the NA community has "recognized" this regiment because it has been a large mature and friendly unit for many months. I find it strange that you are arguing for a name dispute some 6 months after the 29th was made.

Your dis provell does not overwrite that their is already a existing established regiment. A leader's past experiences in another game does not matter.

 

[Lucckt]

No, he did not do it to laugh at us. But he laughed at us after he did it. Again I will state I have no problem whatsoever with his regiment or the number of players in it, how long it has been around and as a regiment they are entitled to be together. However, to take the name of the regiment he was previously in is a totally disrespectful move, especially when he learned about how to lead a clan, all the formations and drills from that clan, he was also setting up the NW regiment whilst still in the BG regiment (behind everyone in that regiments back). If you and your Regiment want to recognise a player and regiment like that, then I respect your decision, although I will have to remain against it. I look forward to seeing what other Regiments think of the situation.

 

[Gunny]

Good luck, and have fun

 

[Lucckt]

Thank You, we look forward to meeting Regiments and playing with the NW community

 

[Deofuta]

As long as the tags are different, and names are dissimilar, both groups can stay as they are. 29th Brigade, as you are the latest entry to NW, it is on you to create a tag different than that of the already established 29th.

Thanks, and good luck!

 

[koach2]

Good to see ye in Napoleonic Wars, 29th. I wish ye good luck.

-Your biggest BG2 friend and enemy, Kochi, 47th Lancashire.

 

[Hugonaut]

Whoa, what?!? The NW 29th has been around for 7 months now. duke really?! I left BG then started this regiment like 4-5 MONTHS later. I had NO intention of making a regiment while in BG 29th. Get your facts straight before you make preposterous claims.
The 29th in BG 2 does NOT bear entitlement to the name "29th Worcestershire Regiment of foot" in every single platform, Just because it was the first in BG2. Even if I had not been in the 29th (For BG2) I would still bear the right to make a 29th Worcestershire Regiment of foot in this platform; simply because it has not been taken yet. The 29th Worcestershire Regiment of foot here, is not in a 'branch' off BG2, and we do not in any way recognize a connection.

Here is the Play by Play.

I Joined the 29th at the end of my Jr year in HS. (2.5 years ago) While i was a insanely active player in the BG community due to a convenient Sunday and Wednesday  off work.
During this time i found a game called Mount and musket. played with the 16th Kampfgruppe for about 4 months or more.
while i was still in the 16th and the 29th (during that time there was no rule for double clanning (Even if so, It was in another platform)) I was offered a full time job as a meat cutter.
I took it and gave up my Wed and Sundays off. I then became very inactive in the 29th.
As this was happening; In MM i was helping Crawford of the 21st PA make a regiment. I was a Capt. he then collapsed the regiment when I was in NY, and I had no idea about what happened until I came back about 2 weeks later.
I then took it upon myself to regroup  the members and tried to merge us with some other regiment. I then ended up merging with the 60th rifles. I became a Lt. there for about 2 months later left because I hated the HM army I then took a big long break. from all sorts of line battling.

7 months ago Hasan(Maximillian) and I made the 29th with the intent on making a good, disciplined, and respected regiment. That's the story. (time frames may be slightly incorrect for I do not mark these events on my life calendar)

You have come from the 29th in a dying mod. We are the 29th who advanced and got a grip hold on the 29th name for NW (and have created a quite respectable reputation)

Even Crippled fetus your leader knew there was already a 29th and didn't bother with it. how does that make you look?
I had so much respect for you guys. so damn much. and just a quick glance at your post and *gone*

 

[Rocknok2]

I look forward to seeing that both the 29th Brigade, and the 29th Worcestershire Regiment of foot can grow to become good friends, instead of adversaries.

The 29th Worcestershire of Foot was formed based on the legacy of the BG2 29th. When Hugonaut and I formed the regiment it was not about mocking, or insulting the BG2 29th. As a matter of fact, Hugonaut used to broast about the professionalism, and the quality of play that the 29th in BG2 had to offer, and how we could create something similar in the Mount & Musket (And I am proud to say, that we have)

I fear one thing for this thread, which I do not want. There's no need for arguments on a regimental recruitment thread. I'd suggest keeping it clean, and we can discuss all the issues over team speak, so we may become friends as opposed to silent enemies.

Best of luck. Hasan.

 

[Lucckt]

Obviously both units feel that the name is theirs. I have had to concede the name "regiment" and use brigade as not to confuse people (albeit a small difference). In our community there is a fair amount of bad feeling towards you personally Soviet Sat for using the name. Again, I am sorry that some of my facts might not be perfectly on the mark, I wasn't a high up at that time so I don't have first hand experience of the issue and I'm going off reading forum threads from the time when you resigned and what other members are saying. This is an issue that clearly we both want and need to resolve, the "aggressive" nature of my posts has been because the BG 29th wants strong action. However, I personally am more open to talks, not for integration or renaming anyone, but there must be another solution so that your already established unit can exist alongside the Historic 29th. After all, you are a mostly US clan and we are EU, so the chances of both of us doing anything together are pretty slim anyway. It would be good to have a command meeting about this at some point with your and our senior officers.

 

[Commander Millander]

Oh the sweet smell of NW wasteland justice. THREE DAWG!

 

[T.Irish]

Hey junky best of luck, are you guys still active in bg?
