“There is noth­ing in this world that is more exciting, more nerve stirring to a soldier,” claimed one Southerner, “than to participate in a battle line of skirmishers, when you have a fair field and open fight. There it takes nerve and pluck; however, it is allowed each skirmisher to take whatever protection he can in the way of tree or stump. Then on the advance you do not know when to expect an enemy to spring from behind a tree, stump, or bush, take aim and fire. It resembles somewhat the order of Indian warfare, for on a skirmish line ‘all is fair in war.’” A Union officer thought the skirmish line “the favorite position of the experienced soldier” since men were allowed to take cover and protect themselves. 

This is the The 7th South Carolina Sharpshooters and Boar's Battery . We are a group of computer gamers that play the game of War Of Rights together as a skirmish regiment. We mustered on Oct. 21st, 2021 and we are an offshoot of the 15th MA. A skirmish regiment is different then a line regiment in that we usually fight kneeling, 6 feet apart, under cover or in an open field. We are deadly accurate and pride ourselves on our marksmanship. We know we are doing our job when we draw the attention of larger enemy regiments and take the focus off of our friendly lines. We do that by killing as many of the enemy as we can.  A line regiment usually fights out in the open in a straight line and volleys at the enemy to suppress with the hope of killing a few. We play in organized Events like the War of Brothers Campaign and Ghost of Antietam which is much more fun than playing on the public servers. We also train in marksmanship and practice civil war skirmish maneuvers. When we are not playing War of Rights we play other games together, such as Hell Let Loose, Ready or Not , ARMA3 and more. We have become a tight knit group of friends who have been playing together for over 2 years.  We would like to invite you to join in on the camaraderie and fun.
