Reporting for Duty!

[William F. Randolph]

Hand me a rifle and some cartridges sir!

[spe801]

I'm in. If there's enough interest in the 11th Mississippi I wouldn't mind trying to start a University Grays unit (Co. A). Lafayette County would be well represented.

[Arkansan]

You are welcome to join us. We are all currently apart of a regiment on NaS and it would be nice to see some new faces for WoR!

[Sorta]

Sign me up

[Patrick Kurtz]

Are you a part of this unit as reenacting? Because I am joining soon :)

[Almanza P. Baker]

No sir we are not but have perused their site as you can tell.
Best of luck and have fun!

[spe801]

Something cool that I have is a history of the unit that was written by a veterans and was distributed to the people that attended one of their reunions in the early 1900's. I can't remember the exact year of the reunion and I'm not home right now but I can post stuff from it later if anyone is interested.

[Almanza P. Baker]

Definitely interested in that.

[Arkansan]

Wow, that sounds pretty neat!

Unfortunately it's in pretty bad shape and falling apart on me. I have one on the University Greys as well that is in better shape.

[William F. Randolph]

Damn thats cool

[Bravescot]

That's seriously cool!

[WillyMcBride]

William McBride:

A Canadian trapped within the confines of the American south after visiting his brother for a year in 1860. He tried multiple times to cross over to the north in 1861 - but found it rather difficult because of the growing hostility between the North and South. After weeks of struggling to survive, and with little money left in his coin purse - William was approached by his brother, and was asked to sign up and fight for the south. Seeing no other option that would bring him north, William accepted.

Now he stands in line for recruitment of the 11th Mississippi - will you take him, and bring him one step closer to returning to his home country?

(Hello all! I would like to sign up!)

Don't think they are using any company flags.

I thought in this people usually played on two regiments
Since that way you could participate in two sides. I'd like to stay with both if possible.

[LocJope]

Oh my god, Soldier, is that you?

[LocJope]

I would very much like to join, if possible. Don't hurt me, please.

[Almanza P. Baker]

Patrick Kurtz not sure how the two company enlistment is going to work. My thoughts are that belonging to one is probably that way to do it. Let me know what you decide.

[Almanza P. Baker]

LocJope we would be pleased to have you! Please contact me on Steam.

[Fisty Richards]

Welcome to the company Richards!

See you out there too neighbor ;)

[Reznikov12]

what if someone doesn't have the 11th Mississippi uniform in the brigadier general pledge?

[William F. Randolph]

There is a lower quality 11th MS uniform ingame to use, the one that you get in the pledge just looks nicer :)

[DarkHash]

hello

[DarkHash]

omfg IM IN THERE

[Arkansan]

If you donate Brigadier-General, you will get the 11th Mississippi Infantry Co. A "University Greys" Uniform.

I'm afraid this is incorrect. The Lamar Rifles wore the classic uniform more than any other company I have been able to find. The University Greys were mainly that, grey. There are members of many different Mississippi companies and regiments with the uniform or a variant of the uniform. This is because early in the war, the State of Mississippi had guidelines for a uniform consisting of the red trim and 8 chest bars for infantry. (Instead of the blue.) The soldiers who's families could afford the nice uniform had it.

Here is a link to some of my research, the Co. G "Lamar Rifles" in all their glory!

[William F. Randolph]

That's a nice pic of company G you got there :D

[Arkansan]

If you'd like to know the history of where the Mississippi uniform in the kickstarter reward comes from, read this. It hits the nail on the head.
http://www.angelfire.com/ms2/UniversityGreys/Uniform_summary.html


As for why Co G. Lamar Rifles had so many of these sexy uniforms, it had to do with them being a local militia, preparing for the looming war since December of 1860.

A guy and I are in the brainstorming stages of starting a Co. A unit. There is one up north but of course it's too far away. Let me know if interested. It'll be based out of Brandon.

So the question is will those that did not donate brig gen and above get a uniform that is similar to the one that us higher tiers pledged?

[Arkansan]

So the question is will those that did not donate brig gen and above get a uniform that is similar to the one that us higher tiers pledged?

I'm not sure how the devs will work around that. It is the sexy uniform they were known for, but I doubt many during the battle wore it.
They could just have all the 11thMS units look similar to this-
3128

Or the devs could just make them look worn out and patchy from use. You will notice other units receiving some nice uniforms (as shown below), so I'm just not sure how they'll make the 11th Mississippi uniform. I do think it would be nice to have uniforms for the different regiments look more unique as to more easily identify units on the field.

Question: how will you represent your unit if the skin in game that is associated with it is essentially a 200 dollar item? haha.\

Read above: void

Welcome Proskauer!

And yeah its already been stated we don't yet know how the 11thMS uniform will be represented yet

[michaelsmithern]

Question: how will you represent your unit if the skin in game that is associated with it is essentially a 200 dollar item? haha.\

Read above: void

they could simply play as the 2ndMS as they look similar, while those who did pay for the brig gen pledge, can go as the 11thMS.
