Thanks, I have another regiment

Number of regiments:15
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow):we are known for using our superior tech in military situations, however we doubt you will want us to bring our Pulse Rifles, so we can make do with what you have, we are also good sharp shooters and can make expert level tactical plans of attack.
Do you wish to have a specific uniform:

Think of this when making your own.

Image
do you have a nobility back home? no
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)? Caucasian
What is the main religion of your people? none
is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar)We never retreat unless told so, we make great military plans even in the middle of battle, we are deadly even up close and view those who run as cowards and will not stop to shoot (unless the target is to far or not hittable) Also if you need a guard, send us in.

is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar) Never stop until all sighted enemies are dead, steal their loot for the officers and them to use, fight with ferocity, fight with the non Humans so they can get some kills in first.

I know its been a while since I did something with this thread but I can finally give The Imerian Crown what it needs...Orcoan Regluars aka the Orcoan Army!

Number of regiments:2
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow): They fight in formations of other regiments and it is knowned for their battle hardness and skill in combat
Do you wish to have a specific uniform: If you can then yes
If yes how would it look like (I would however prefer if you stuck to the theme of the royal guard and use uniforms from the late nineteen century or the early twentieth century),you may describe it (so will I do them to the best of my abilities in paint), post a picture or use the pictures assigned bellow as inspiration if you wish to paint it yourself:

do you have a nobility back home? A few yes
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment? A few
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)? Orcoan
What is the main religion of your people? The Holy Imperial Church of Oroca
is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar) They are known for fighting till death and they can fight in any place any time thanks to their amazing skills in adopting to the battlefield that they are fighting on. They were giving as a final gift to the Imerian Crown after a long ago war just like the Beserkers Regiments and the Orcoan War Priest Regiments

Anyway, with the further growth in my nation's development I have a new group of people in my nation, who are pretty much hyper violent Scots crossed with Rednecks with some human sacrificing a cannibalism rituals tossed in.

Number of regiments: 2
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow): Fire into the enemy and charge into melee with great swords, axes, knives, and bayonets.
Do you wish to have a specific uniform: Preferably the standard uniform with the sleeves missing, the collar unkempt, and very large muscles and a hairy body. Several scars all over the body.
If yes how would it look like (I would however prefer if you stuck to the theme of the royal guard and use uniforms from the late nineteen century or the early twentieth century),you may describe it (so will I do them to the best of my abilities in paint), post a picture or use the pictures assigned bellow as inspiration if you wish to paint it yourself: Look above
do you have a nobility back home? Yes
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment? God no
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)? Scottish or something
What is the main religion of your people? These people are mostly bastardized catholic (catholicism with saints seen as outright gods, and many pagan rituals), pagan (human sacrifices and warriors dedicated to the worship of a certain god), or a monotheistic religion in which they view some human leader as an actual god (usually the highland warlord Aethelwulf, or the Luthorian Emperor Edward I).
is there something the regiments will be known for? They are very willing to retreat if it means they can fight again, they average 2 meters tall, they specialize in melee combat, and have the disturbing belief that consuming certain body parts will allow them to gain their victim's strength (eg. eating muscle will give you their strength, eating their brain will give you their intelligence, eating their reproductive organs will give you their virility), which results in them eating dead allies and enemies, generally officers or skilled soldiers. Also, they are very sexist, believing that rape and domestic abuse aren't just okay, but that a man should do them to prove his dominance.

It is best that you keep them away from any females and give them orders so as to keep them from eating dead and wounded allies.

Orcoan regiments of the line
Image

Part of the Orcoan battalion that where given to the crown from the Imperial States of Orcoa as a thanks for the federations actions during the war so are the orcoan regiments of the line the foot soldiers of the orcoan federal forces as they are backed up by bloodthirsty berserkers as well as heavily armoured battle priests as they push forward for their adopted country as one of the older foreign formations with rich traditions stretchng back years which makes them the ideal work for young Orcoans that feel that school just isn't cut for them and that they rather would be exploring the wide world, facing enemies in glorious combat and having shiploads of fun before they either stay in the federation and live on the money they earned or return home with their chests filled with medals.


Purpailia Draconican order of Cuirassiers
Image

Cuirassiers are the most respected and looked up to soldiers in the entire guard with the exception of the high guard which means that only a few regiments of them can be found per army and even then so are between one and three the standard while four regiments are rare even amongst cavalry rich units which makes the heavily armoured men the elite of the elite as they and their horses rides forward into battle covered from top to toe with heavy bullet proof armour and armed with a pair of heavy pistols and sometimes even Sub-machine-gun to rain death and destruction amongst the enemy as they charge over the battlefield and right into the enemy front lines with large cavalry axes and swords to decimate their enemy and with massive victory hammers/lances are they even known to be able to deal with armoured targets as well as mere infantry.

This is something that is true for the men from Purpailia draconia as they tower over their peers in their massive cheramic/kevlar armours and are in generally seen as pretty swell guys because of it.


Asgard attack guard
Image

As strong proper scandinavians are the Asgard attack guard often seen as upstanding proper soldiers that can act as true heroes of old as they advance in their heavy armour with lowered bayonets at heavy defended positions followed by the more numerous lightly armoured guardsmen that once the attack guard have managed to tie down their enemy swarms them in massive attacks that sweeps away the enemy in a large storm of grey and blue.


Combine regiment of the line
Image

while often looked down on by most guardsmen as they replace their glorious and noble KVG rifles with some foreign rifles taken from the enemies as well as capturing their enemies as slaves and more times than can be counted so have the high command actively stepped in to liberate captured enemies as they after the glory of battle should be taken care of properly as they as proper warrios deserve, of course there are times when the enemy have acted cowardly and despicable in which cases they have either stepped in and given the slaves to the royal merchant guild or simply looked other directions or in generally been distracted by an shining object.



Gmodian regiment of the line
Image

Being rather laughed at for using pulse rifles back home which is often manifested by guardsmen making "puff puff" noises as they aim at the gmodians in attempts to mimic "wussrifles" as the guards refer to them as.

The real problems the Gmodians do display however are their tendency to make up plans in the middle of the battles and other similar nonsense as the last thing any proper officer from the guard want to hear when he is about to glorious about to charge into the lines of an enemy unit is that they can sneak up and simply massacre the enemy from higher ground which the lazy buggers tends to suggests even if most of their officers are more proper and follow orders without questions.

another strange fact is that the Gmodian regiments tend to have a higher than usual deaths amongst officers compared to soldiers which is often followed by some nonsensical flaking manoeuvre or somesuch which often results in withdrawn payment and lashings as they didn't follow orders properly.


Anglo-saxon highland guard
Image

"Just shoot whatever that move, if you hit the enemy you have done your duty, if you hit one of the big knaves so have you most likely stopped him from committing one crime or another, if he wasn't he where likely about to do it, if he weren't so where he most likely planning to do one so do not lose to much sleep over the whole thing!" :~ Björn auf Vildbarg knight commander of the Anglosaxon highland guard.

Life in the highland guard can be a trying and short life as the officers simply hate their men and are often chosen simply because they are deemed to be to insane to lead a proper guards unit which means that they often volunteers their men for duties such as attacking enemy emplacements and simply take the non-humans jobs in the hope that they might as well take as many of the cursed dogs that they lead into combat and there have been tales of such officers continuing their advance even covered in bullets as they tried to stay up simply to "watch the last of the bastards die".

The reason for this hatred is well documented as rapes and violation of battle doctrine is much common amongst the highland guard to the degree that the regiments where disbanded once. This did of course left a bunch of violent and unemployed barbarians within Imerbürg to roam the streets as they wanted which resulted in the regiments being reformed within an hour after their original disbandment.

In war however so do they well make up for their faults as officers and men alike attack their enemies in a beast like furry and there have even been stories of enemies being ripped apart by highlanders with their bear fists as they have run out of ammo.

The Anglo-Saxon Empire wrote:Good job Imeriata, I expected a more offensive appearance, but the entry on them more than makes up for a bland guard uniform.

Truthfully so where I to tired when I wrote that to make another uniform with only some small differences that attempted to be offensive to some stereotype or another so I simply gave them the standard uniform as that is what they are supposed to be wearing.

Also; bland? with nick out of the picture so is that uniform without any contest the most dashing military uniform in the world!


Fighting paddies!
Image

While they are not known for much so are the fighting paddies the source of many a joke about everything from potatoes and lack of responsibility when it comes to alcohol but when the night comes and the feasts begin so are they often welcomed to join in to tell stories from their far of islands as well as their songs are always a welcomed thing as they are rather similar to both Scanderan and Taranakan folk songs even if much laughter is had over the tales of their homelands, a Ireland with forest on it, now that is just silly!


Conogan regiment of the line
Image

While they are not known for much so are the regiments from Conogan often laughed at for their helmets as it is considered a bit cowardly if you are not one of the various sorts of troopers that can still carry one and look stylish while doing so, which the men from Conogan is not part of.
However so have a game evolved amongst the guard that is called "Conoganska ringar" or "conogan rings" in Anglo-Saxon where you are supposed to sneak up on the man with the pickelhaube and without them noticing so shall you throw the ring at the pointy part so that the ring lands on the pickelhaube and with the pointy thing inside it and without falling of in which case you score a point. The game have so far been considered as either extremely amusing or one of the most annoying games ever invented depending on what your headgear looks like.

Do you wish to have a specific uniform: Yes
If yes how would it look like (I would however prefer if you stuck to the theme of the royal guard and use uniforms from the late nineteen century or the early twentieth century),you may describe it (so will I do them to the best of my abilities in paint), post a picture or use the pictures assigned bellow as inspiration if you wish to paint it yourself:
Black tunic with red trim, dark brown boots, a belt, long blue coat that comes down to the feet, with a sabre attached at the belt. I'd post a picture but my computer is working right
do you have a nobility back home? No
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment?
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)? TableRasens are racially similar to the Scandinavians and Brittish, although minorities of other races exist.
What is the main religion of your people? The Faith of Llocsird
is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar) Marching bands play every morning and respect is given to the TableRasen tricolour flag, although the red battle flag with military crest is sometimes use, the troops will die to protect the flag.

Truthfully so where I to tired when I wrote that to make another uniform with only some small differences that attempted to be offensive to some stereotype or another so I simply gave them the standard uniform as that is what they are supposed to be wearing.

Also; bland? with nick out of the picture so is that uniform without any contest the most dashing military uniform in the world!

While they are not known for much so are the fighting paddies the source of many a joke about everything from potatoes and lack of responsibility when it comes to alcohol but when the night comes and the feasts begin so are they often welcomed to join in to tell stories from their far of islands as well as their songs are always a welcomed thing as they are rather similar to both Scanderan and Taranakan folk songs even if much laughter is had over the tales of their homelands, a Ireland with forest on it, now that is just silly!


Conogan regiment of the line

While they are not known for much so are the regiments from Conogan often laughed at for their helmets as it is considered a bit cowardly if you are not one of the various sorts of troopers that can still carry one and look stylish while doing so, which the men from Conogan is not part of.
However so have a game evolved amongst the guard that is called "Conoganska ringar" or "conogan rings" in Anglo-Saxon where you are supposed to sneak up on the man with the pickelhaube and without them noticing so shall you throw the ring at the pointy part so that the ring lands on the pickelhaube and with the pointy thing inside it and without falling of in which case you score a point. The game have so far been considered as either extremely amusing or one of the most annoying games ever invented depending on what your headgear looks like.

I know! The only reason I don't buy IG is because I'm too busy with my chaos space marine army. Also..If only there was a Orcoan demon hunter regiment made...

Nick will probably be back in a week, also, tricornes are awful, only Ramset and her female obsession with berets is worse. I am calling United Russian the winner now, or I will go PT uniform to counteract it. Say hello to the new Saxon army, semi-auto standard layout battle rifles with permanent bayonets, lots of artillery, and bright red uniforms and bearskin hats for the grenadiers.

Chaos is weak, real men go Tau so they can pick off the enemy at long range and never have to fight like men. Wait what?

Hey don't burst my bubble here, for a week will I stand without competition in the uniform compartment before I need to improve to stay at the top again an don't diss the tricorne it looks bloody marvellous it does!

Well I have been planing to get a warmer hat for the winter uniform, but a royal guardsman without a tricorne is just wrong I say!

Bahh real men play the guard, paint 200 figures, realises that they have no freaking support and that massive bayonet charges are not all that cracked up to be in that game!

Number of regiments: One.
Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow): With Guns.
Do you wish to have a specific uniform: Yes
If yes how would it look like (I would however prefer if you stuck to the theme of the royal guard and use uniforms from the late nineteen century or the early twentieth century),you may describe it (so will I do them to the best of my abilities in paint), post a picture or use the pictures assigned bellow as inspiration if you wish to paint it yourself: Image
do you have a nobility back home? No.
If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment? N/A
What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)? AI.

is there something the regiments will be known for? They are entirely synthetic. They are excellent at ambushes.

TableRase Regiment of the line

While they haven't earned fame and glory in the field of battle so are the Tablerase regiment a source of great amusement for their officers as they have forbidden them to fly their own colours as they want nothing of their republican nonsense in their regiments and they punish such behaviour with long races with showers reserved for the winner and the rest being forced to bath in the cold waters of the rivers and lakes of the federation. On these races so does often their officers bet money and tends to ride with the men to encourage them with their horsewhips.

This have however its advantages for the men and they are often considered amongst the fastest and most enduring men in the royal guard.

No support? I think that you have forgotten the existence of about half of the Imperial Guard models ever made.

Honestly, I think this looks cooler than your normal guard uniform. IT reminds me of that pic you showed when you were arguing with NN.


I agree with you on that. That uniform is cool.

Nope I kind of looked the other way... But I would need to get more artillery and what not if I want to win.

well it looks too much like Nickies when I use red, blue and white if I should be completely honest, sure I have planned to replace them with a blue, yellow and white but I have not found a design that beat the blue and grey I use now. with this being the best I have for the moment

Number of regiments: 10

Do your nation have any historical preferred way of fighting (It will most likely be incorporated into the way the regiment fights now somehow): Kovasckitz has adapted to the times well in terms of what it equips itself with; the newest and most sophisiticated artillery and arms will always find a market in her army. However, the pounding these weapons dish out is only thought of as a precursor to battle- true battle only begins when the two armies clash and meet face to face, and the commanders of Kovasckitz tend to rush to that point.

Do you wish to have a specific uniform: I have a general idea, but I won't be heartbroken if the end product isn't what I pictured.

If yes how would it look like (I would however prefer if you stuck to the theme of the royal guard and use uniforms from the late nineteen century or the early twentieth century),you may describe it (so will I do them to the best of my abilities in paint), post a picture or use the pictures assigned bellow as inspiration if you wish to paint it yourself: The jacket is blue and double-breasted, with black collars and buttons. The pants are black and the gloves/boots provided are a dark brown. The helmets all have a crest, with the officers being of a longer strand and colored red, rather than the black of the normal men. Munitions are carried in side-pouches and the pack they carry is held on with an "X" strap.

Do you have a nobility back home?: The position of "High Diplomat" (effectively dictator) is the only hereditary position, but the government officials choosen by aptitude tests from the general population are treated extremely well throughout their term of service and receive hefty pensions in retirement.

If yes on the previous question, will there be a presence of noblemen in this regiment?: There might be a few extremely patriotic retires, but the majority of the men, and officers, are from the lower classes.

What is the main ethnicity of your nations people (do if you can compare them to a RL people)?: They're closer to eastern European than anything else.

What is the main religion of your people?: Officially, Kovasckitz sanctions a quasi-religion that promotes ultimate devotion to the state, but in practice most people just pay lip service to this and actually follow a form of Orthodox Christianity. It should be noted that the extremely patriotic members of the "volunteer" army, of which these men are a part, tend to be devoted to the religion of the state.

Is there something the regiments will be known for? (such as they die standing rather than retreat, they are good marksmen or something similar): Popular rumor in Kovasckitz says that these men are mad for battle. After all, military service is already compulsory, long, and noteably rough. These units are an elite division of the "volunteer" army of Kovasckitz- essentially people who signed up for a lifetime of service, and who in their right mind would do that?
