Wile I'm fine with the military structure I am not a big fan of using military rank instead of call sign. I had plenty of it in the military...
If you need to id the leader of the drop during combat something like Lance Leader, Drop Leader or Commander. Aside from that we should learn at least who is going to be partnering with you.
Also if you have a long complicated name I would suggest getting a call sigh of one or two syllables.

I agree with this on some levels because I don't think we need all the formalities.. I do however support some rank system. It is attractive to new recruits and gives us all a sense of structure and a feeling that there is a strong system in place to support us...

Macheiron and I had a talk with Sean "Phil" Lang last night (when setting up the LoP channel on NGNG) and he pointed out that almost every paramilitary clan he had seen had pretty much shattered fairly quick. (AU was an anomaly in that it stuck around and continuously grew for a year). People who want to be in a military should: Join a military (or the police/ other paramilitary unit) (this was what Sean said, I'm just paraphrasing here.) So, yeah, I think rank is cool, just as long as (Maarek has already said this) You don't include the whole CoC and other "Formalities"

I think we are all pretty much on the same page here...

as long as we keep in mind that this is a GAME, I'm fine with anything

as long as we keep in mind that this is a GAME, I'm fine with anything One thing I did like from AU was the awards thing that was in place. Something like a lighter and more MWO oriented thing for unit members would be a nice thing and give us something to aim towards other then just basic ranks... After all, there's a lot of talent in this unit and awards would give us something to track the progression of our skills and give others an idea of our abilities. |

let's ensure we do not grow too fast and let this get out of hand. thoughts are good and welcome, and we just need to decide on what is best for us.

I had posted on the AU forums, that instead of being known as "DD6", I should be called "Death" instead because I didn't want anyone confusing my name with a MWO map reference. Besides, it's shorter / faster to say in combat.
