BRIGADE members area
cittie of london brigade
An area of the website for discovery, discussion and dissemination.
|
The area to find out about events available to all members of the brigade, the dress standards, and an outline of the event as planned.
|
We are aspiring to become the lead brigade in terms of our presentation, and to become authentic across the
board. Some good advice here. |
The secret of our success as a brigade will be regular and open communication. To help this happen we have a newsheet - London & Liberty!
|
Understanding how the brigade works within the army is key to moving forward. Find out what the 'rules' are here...

download the new
logo's & branding
The Brigade is looking to promote itself more prominently. If you would like to use any of our logo's or symbols, please download them here. All we ask is that you use them courteously and respectfully. After all, the Brigade has nearly 400 members and you definitely don't want to upset that many people!
ADministration forms made easy |
drummers

|
Ok, so who hates the forms that go out of date and are a pain to fill in? Well, its probably all of us! We have devised all of the usual forms into an on-line set that you fill out, and send direct to the Brigade Commander etc. It's dead easy, its also logged on the CoLB Server (on the cloud) and should take the hassle out of doing boring and relentless admin! Happy days for Adjutants? Let's hope so!
|
The brigade's drums are a huge asset to the Cittie of London Brigade's overall presentation to the public; after all there's nothing more stirring than the sound of the drums and the shouts of the troops as we march into a town or city. The drummers get tired legs home and we all need that beat to keep us going after a hard fight. So they have a page here... for drummers stuff!

new brigade drill formations
We have a new set of formations that we need to learn as a Brigade. We will be having Drill Sessions at 11.00am on the first fighting day of a Muster as a Standing Order, and will also be working on drill at the Armie of Parliament Training Weekend at the beginning of the campaign season. The new formations are drawn directly from William Barriffe's drill manual, and by chance fits almost perfectly with the structure of the Cittie of London Brigade.
marching Companie
To make the formations work on the field we need to plan the Order of March.

|
batallia formation
This is the strongest position, condensing our numbers into deep formations.
|
|
deploy & Give Fire
Breaking down the Battalia formation we can deploy devastating firepower.

|
reform on your colours & pike advance
[the hammer]
As the brigade reforms after the first engagement the reserve Pike divisions advance.
|
|
form hollow battalia
This formation is easy to form and gives massive flexibility.
|
This formation will be Cittie of London Brigade's Party Piece. It will make the numbers we have look much larger, and the opposition are going to struggle with how to engage with us. This is an authentic formation for a civil war sized company, so expect this to be used with the White Trayned Bandes as well... |

hollow battalia into charge to horse
We can slip easily from Hollow Battalia into Charge to Horse by moving very few troops.
This certainly looks robust and allows for a very quick reform.
