Royal Winnipeg Rifles Badge

Formed in March 2013 by M. Judge and A. Incoming, the 90th Winnipeg Rifle Battalion (90thR.) was a realism regiment based on a Canadian army battalion. 

After the return of the 3rd Marines, the 90th merged with the 3rd Marines in WW1:Source.

History[]

After the demobilisation of the former WW1:S power, Kindom of Arkayon (GoA), it's second in command, M. Judge, wished to continue playing World War 1 Source realisms with a unit, and thus the 90th Winnipeg Rifle Battalion was created. Many of the active players/leader of the GoA joined up, giving the regiment it's main base of players.

The group was formed by Cpl. M. Judge and L/Cpl. A. Inköming, and contained many of the GoA's old members. It quickly grew to platoon-level, with 2Lt. M. Judge leading, Sgt. D. Martens as second in command, and with the M/Cpl. A. Inköming, Cpl. K. Zone, and Cpl. P. Pekiller as the platoon's NCOs. Eventually, the 90th expanded to company size, with Maj. M. Judge in charge, C/Lt. R. Broadbent as 2nd, and with 2Lt. A. Ireson and 2Lt. A. Sandino commanding the 2 platoons.

The Battalion is currently headed by Maj. M. Judge, with Capt. D. Martens as second in command. The group is currently accepting new enlistments in order to bolster its ranks and become a well known force in World War 1 Source much like its predecessor, the GoA.
