von Reindle's Musketeers


The final brigade of the Elector Spirituals forces von Reindle's Musketeers draws it's recruits mainly from Munchausen, Enteburg and Vorlund. They are the junior regiment of the Witzboldfeld army having only come into being towards the end of the previous Elector Spiritual's reign.


In the field they are commanded by Colonel Gerhardt von Kreutzer-Meinhoff another of of Graf von Reindle's relatives, indeed nearly half of the regiments officers are related to their Inhaber including his own son Major Ferdinand von Reindle who commands the regiment second battalion.


The recent turbulent times in Pangaea saw the regiment fight the Ikeonians and then the Vandenburgers, they survived their first battle unscathed, they weren't so lucky in their second being driven from the field.

von Furchner's Musketeers

Raised during the Pangaean wars of religion von Furchner's regiment was originally in service with the Elector of Enteburg before being transfered into service with the forces of Witzboldfeld at the end of those wars. They draw recruits from the southern part of the empire and include many men from


Their inhaber is Graf Sebastian von Furchner a nobleman from Kleiner-Munchausen who has been in the service of the the Electors Spiritual for many years. The Graf is famous within the empire for his love of cartography and has collected many maps and charts from all over the world. He has remained aloof of the debate fostered by the Elector of Munchausen about the contentious spelling of the Electorates name that almost caused a war between the Electors of Munchausen and Enteburg.


Currently the regiment is in the field with the Army of the Western circle, they have faced the Ikeaonians and the Vandenburgers, they very much prefer to fight the former rather than the later.

Archbishop's Grenadier Guards



The Elector Spiritual of Imperial Pangaea raised a regiment of guards during the Pangaean wars of religion, they remain in service today in their distinct lilac coats and crimson facings. Currently commanded by Lieutenant Colonel Ernst von Minnesänger, a stern disciplinarian who has resisted the current Electors push for more equality between the classes.



The brigade fought valiantly at the battle of Grosser Feuerbach before being driven from the field in the face of the Ikeaonian cavalry. They are currently being rebuilt as a force in Witzboldfeld before returning to the field with the Reichsarmee.




As the senior cleric within the Pangaean Reich the Elector has access to recruits from lands spread across most of the empire and has called upon the peasantry within the churches domains to rebuild his Guards brigade.
