The 10th in-game:
The 10th is a company that will be made off people of all over the world, because it’s named the ´´Foreign Legion´´ it doesn't mean that you have to be to join it, if you are from the US you are welcome as well. The orders in the 10th were given in French, here we will give them in English. We are looking for capable members, that will follow the chain of command when asked to, since we will be RP oriented, and that want to have a good time!
The founding members of the 10th:
We are a small group of players that have known each other for some years now. We have been members of both N&S and NW regiments in the past. We are an international group of people, based in the EU, our timezone is GMT. If you are looking for an international company (we are EU), you have come to the right place.
