The 10th originated in Mount and Musket back in 2011 as the 10te Prussian infantry regiment, we played the mod N&S off and on over the course of a few years but not really with much solidarity until now. As a regiment we strive for excellence on the battlefield and more than anything else enjoyment of the game. If you'd be interested in joining us add ibsocal on steam.
The 10th is a NA based regiment with 2 companies of Line and Light averaging 40 members an event. We look forward to adding a 3rd company in the not so distant future if time/commitment permits it.
The 10th Tennessee Infantry was organized at Fort Henry, on the Tennessee River, in May of 1861, just a few weeks after the first shot was fired at Fort Sumpter. The Colonel of the regiment was a Prussian named Adolphus Heiman, who would after his death be replaced by Lieutenant Colonel Randal W. McGavock as Colonel.
On July 1861, the Tenth Tennessee Regiment of Volunteers with 720 men armed with flintlock musket rifles were mustered into the Confederate Army. Garrisoned at Fort Henry until February 1862, they left there after Federal bombardment to Fort Donelson. On February 13, 1862 Federal forces attacked Fort Donelson, three days later the Fort surrendered. The Tenth endured many loses, the field and staff officers who survived were captured and sent to Fort Warren; the non-commissioned officers and privates were sent to Camp Chase and Camp Douglas, Illinois. Officers and enlisted men were exchanged and paroled and sent down to Vicksburg, from there they transported by railway and reorganized in Clinton, Mississippi. The men of the 10th Tennessee were gallantly involved in such battles as Raymond, Mississippi, Chickamauga, Georgia, Missionary Ridge, Tennessee, Rocky Face Ridge, Resaca, Atlanta, Georgia.
