The 23rd NYVIR is one of the only Zouave Union Regiments to muster in War of Rights. We look forward to fighting along side our brothers in (TNA) The Northern Aggression and all other reasonable groups. We aim to create a fun environment to be in when not in game; but a serious, winning oriented regiment when in events/public matches. We intend to work with the community to help it grow on both fighting sides and help foster a welcoming environment for new players and old alike. We will strive for excellence on the field but will not try in any means to be politically correct in the down time, this is a video game people play for fun. Hope to see you on the field!
With the addition of Artillery into the game we have added an attached battery the 1st NY Battery L; Reynolds Battery Light Artillery.
