Message to all new RANGERS.

What's wrong with being called Mountaineers, the official title of the unit?

Hello vinni
Everyone knows us as Rangers so to avoid any confusion with anyone trying to find us i put the old and the new name for the unit. But if truth be told the lads are not that fond of it either.

Kind regards
Richard Clarkson

You are aware that several fine Mountaineering regiments do exist? Gebirgsjäger, Ardeense Jagers, Brigade d'Infanterie de Montagne,... ?

Jaysus mate.

@Clarkson: I can see your point, but it is important to realise that in several interactions unit name do matter. If cobra members start calling themselves shadows, or mountaineers refer to themselves as rangers, the town mayor might get confused.
Just sayin'.

There are very fine mountaineers regiments indeed, my padawan was just showing what many of my lads feel. That they have grown attached to there cadre that they have spent many years building it into something that we all feel connected to. obviously you cant put a mountain regt in same league as a commando force which is what a ranger unit is ofc.

Im sure if we do need to larp at any point that my lads will conduct themselves accordingly.

I hope you have a enjoyable event.

Kind regards
Richard Clarkson

Mountain troops are much more elite and tough than "national park guards" rangers :)

You are stepping on some fine old Berget naming traditions. Salute to Poldavian 3rd Mountaineers!

I'll try and avoid trying to avoid confusion in the future it does seem the logical step at this point.
