Formed in 1791 to fight the natives, the Legion was America’s first standing army. The Founding Fathers were very suspicious of armies and believed that a citizen militia was quite sufficient for national defence. The Legion may not be numerous, but it makes up for that in fighting spirit! All are schooled in the tactics of formal, European fighting, where giving fire from rigid lines is the norm, yet they are also capable of fighting in a flexible, loose skirmish fashion that is ideally suited to war against the natives. Each man is trained to fight with guts, independence and determination. These men are professional soldiers, the best that can be found in the United States. The Legion is a composite force of infantry, able to fight in a battle line and as skirmishers.
