I have a lot of these sites that tell the history of particular British regiments and individual soldier stories.
The information on these sites could be used to make maps for Iron Europe telling the experience of a particular battalion or a soldier or soldier's company (includes Scottish, Welsh, Northern Ireland, and Irish Battalions / soldier stories.
We are modding for TW's next game 'Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad', to be released sometime in 2010:

these aren't battalions mate they're regiments. :) like the Gordons had 9 battalions in ww1 I think? but they were 1 regiment.
they took away our regimental system to make one super regiment now we're made up of 7 battalions. hundreds of years of regimental history scrapped for a eurofighter jet. shocking isn't it?
