The 43e Régiment Volume 1

(B) Sgt. CatchingRockSergeant Dec 09, 2025 · 3 min read

Yesterday was my first battle with the regiment. I didn't know what to expect being new to the game. The experience was interesting. My commanding officer was @Reverend. tyedye X who turned out to be a junior officer. I think he did well. But I still died a lot. I almost survived the first match. But when I fell in battle, someone in our group chat decided to use the bathroom in group chat. I'm not sure it was on a dare, but he just decided to leave his mic on while going to the bathroom. I couldn't help but notice he didn't wash his hands after! "I didn't piss on my hands so I don't have to wash them," said the unknown soldier. It's not a terrible thing to do when it's all men. Unfortunately, we had squeaky in our group. @Squeaky protested but she was already in trouble for a capital offense. Apparently, she accidentally shot one of own soldiers. The second match I died right off the bat. Not much to report there..... moving on. The third match I died watching @President Jarl boxing in a gentleman's duel. Some bastard stabbed me in the back. So much for chivalry. The fourth match @1DR | Crusader took command. I died again later in the match. But I did see @Reverend. tyedye X win in a gentleman's duel. Unfortunately, @Squeaky was our last hope in hand-to-hand combat. She died and everybody started talking about an execution after the session. Apparently, this game's not like baseball. You don't get three strikes. But the good news is our faction won that match! The 5th match I died while reloading. Poor squeaky got killed right off the bat.... she will be remembered. Again, I didn't kill anybody. I'm just cannon fodder in this game. :cannon: I did stay for the debriefing after the match. Things got a little crazy when some limey bastards (English soldiers)🇬🇧 stormed the church during our meeting. Jarl did threaten to ban them.🚫 Eventually, they stopped. Then we proceeded with the final phase of the debriefing. The execution of squeaky. Poor squeaky.... she shall be remembered. The last part of the briefing was really weird. Everyone performed a mass suicide.:SkellyDance: I'm not sure what to make of that. Did I join a cult? Vive the 43e Régiment!🇲🇫 @(B) Sgt. CatchingRock

The 43e Régiment Volume 2 This is my second battle with the regiment. It went the same as the first battle.... I was killed many times again.:SkellyDance: I'm happy to report, that I did score a hit. Unfortunately, I only wounded him. I hate to admit this but I wasn't fast enough to get to the line of fire.:DoubleBarrelPistol: There's nothing worse than hearing that dead man's click when trying to fire. Our commanding officer @1DR | Crusader lead us into battle. I have to admit, he has aggressive style of tactics. The Colonel was fearless when he put us right in the heat of battle.:SwordSwing: It was too bad the enemy was waiting for us. Our unit lasted just as long as his debriefing speech. "I need a Mulligan," said Colonel crusader. Our debriefing was short as stated before. "I fucking suck at debriefings," stated the Colonel. I didn't think it was a bad speech but I would recommend watching Gladiator for some inspirational quotes. "What we do in life, echoes an eternity... or some shit like that". Whatever you do, don't watch Gladiator 2. Spoiler alert....it sucked!💩 Oh yeah. I almost forgot there were two executions that night and no it wasn't @Squeaky this time. Macy was executed for being AFK which is strange because @President Jarl did the same thing and wasn't charged for the crime. @Logan 4201 was blamed for something and was ceremoniously executed as well. I'm not too sure about this military justice system.
