History

The King's Renatian Legion was formed at the birth of the Kingdom of Renatus-Marna, after King Frederick Pius I of Marna abdicated the throne, giving his titles and land to King Aurelius I. What remained of the Freikorps and original Renatian military was united under one banner. However, it was not until 1651 in which the Army’s power and number began to increase exponentially. Senntisten became the epitome of a strong, human centric kingdom on Atlas, and an influx of trade and migrants from stagnant kingdoms began to find their way to the city gates. Men would sign up in droves to enlist, eager to serve their country in the brewing conflict. Thus, with a powerful military in their possession, the Crown was easily able to dispatch Norlanders, Reivers, and other degenerate factions who once plagued their borders. Victory after victory, raid after raid, more patriotic men who sought a better future for themselves enlisted. Men in the modified Landsknecht uniforms designed by Captain Krieger were plentiful throughout the streets of Senntisten. With each consecutive victory in raids and wars, the full might of the Renatian Army is unstoppable and their ranks grow by the day.
