regimentally = regimental (transparent) = regiment + al + ly
The adverb is formed regularly from the adjective 'regimental' with the productive suffix '-ly', so the step is predictable.
Etymology
Regimentally comes from the word regiment ('a group of soldiers') plus the endings -al and -ly, so it originally meant 'in the way of a regiment'. So to act regimentally is to act in a strict, military order, doing things exactly and without change.
