EITC First Division

The First Division
The EITC First Division is a division in the service of Lord Marshal Samuel Redbeard. It is led by Field Marshall Johnny Coaleaston, and is currently recruiting. The division was the main attack force in the Invasion of Guines, and it gets together on random days in random places to train in case it is needed for another invasion or attack. It is made up of loyal EITC officers and soldiers, and some elite officers are in it. If you would like to join the division, please say so in the comments.

Training
Every few days, the entire EITC First Division gathers for training. During training, all soldiers will go over the basic fundamentals of fighting, learning certain orders from the drill sergeants, and occasionally practice in simulated battle sequences. The training session is usually held on the beach of Port Royal, but may sometimes change. All training is run by Lord Johnny Coaleaston. If you are in the division, you are required to come to training when online, unless a reasonable excuse is at hand. We ask that all soldiers come to training with their musket/bayonet, any dagger or sabre, and proper uniforms. For more info on training, click the link below:

The EITC First Division Navy
After one SvS battle won, and another being planned, Lord Johnny Coaleaston has decided the division should also have a fleet, as more and more battles are currently being fought at sea. If you are in the division you do keep your current rank, and there are no seperate ranks for the navy. That being so, Lord Coaleaston would act like the Admiral of the Fleet, and Lord Garland would act as the Vice Admiral, and General Ryan would act as a Third in Command, or Commodore. Squad Leaders would be ship captains, and their squads would work on board the ships as gunners or repair men. If, and only if you are a squad leader, you may enlist your ship in the fleet. There is a flag ship, in which the First, Second, and Third in command act on. The crew of that ship would be made up of the medical squad, as no other squads would be available. The medical squad in this case would fire guns, but also repair the ship if needed. The flag ship would skirt the main battle, and act as a rescue ship if any other ship is in need.

The Black Mercenary


The Black Mercenary is the flag ship of the EITC First Division Navy, and its crew consists of all brigade commanders and Second in

Commands. It also is gunned and repaired by the Medical Squad.
