There were many units that were raised in the United States besides the New Orleans Greys who fought in the Revolution. Alabama Red Rovers, raised late of 1835 by Dr. Jack Shackelford, landed in Texas on January 19, 1836, joined the Goliad garrison on February 12, 1836, and fought and surrendered at the Battle of Coleto Creek, and were executed Palm Sunday, March 27, 1836 along with 400 other Texians. Dr. Jack Shackelford was spared since the Mexicans were lacking in doctors and they used him to care for the Mexican wounded. Macon Georgian Volunteers/Macon Volunteers/Georgia Battalion, raised in Georgia late 1835 by William Ward, fought at the Battle of Refugio and surrendered after. I will put more later

Yep you're correct Saris. In addition, one of my biggest research projects is Generals Jerome B. Robertson and Felix H. Robertson. Jerome Robertson had actually helped raise a group of Kentucky volunteers and brought them down here (granted later in 1836 like many other companies of volunteers, having been delayed for various reasons).
I believe Colton is more referring to units that were raised in Texas, rather than in the United States, being officially named.

Yes, the Texan Companies are now place holders, and we will be soon breaking down each regiment into smaller sections, such as Companies (not to copy the game War of Rights, but to add a larger amount of reservable Community organizations in total) the names will be updated asap. You must remember that the game is not final, and almost everything is subject to change

The Mobile Greys were a cavalry company formed in Mobile, AL by James Bonham (KIA at Alamo and brother to SC Governor Milledge Bonham). But the only history behind them I know of is that they arrived San Felipe in November of 1835. Hope that helps!
