Title: Reforming The Squads
Post by: Raiden Morana on May 13, 2009, 01:44:43 pm
It has been decreed that three squads shall initially make up the elite units of the Covian army; 1st Regiment The Baron's Own Grenadiers; 2nd Regiment The Light Company, 6th Regiment The Arcane Company.

Former members of these squads prior to the disbanding of the army are welcome to rejoin and those guardsmen wishing to enter these elite units must first reach the rank of Junior Guardsman and complete their squad trial.



Commanding Officers.

The Baron's Own Grenadiers ~ Raiden Morana, Commander.
The Light Company ~ Aliryl Trefynwyd, Officer Cadet.
The Arcane Company ~ Elizabeth "Pickles" Martin, Officer Cadet.



The Squads ~ A Background.

1st Regiment The Baron's Own Grenadiers.

The Baron's Own Grenadiers are the elite in terms of both melee and ranged units of the Covian Army. Specialising in both archery and close combat, these guardsmen excel in death from all angles, and provide the raw firepower that leads the Army to victory. They are tough, hardy, and dependable.

These guardsmen are also well known for their role in guarding the Baron of Cove himself, and are sometimes tasked with special errands from Lord Octiovus.

2nd Regiment The Light Company.

The Light Company are the eyes and ears of the Covian Army. Silently, they ease through the lands of Britannia, providing the Army and the Baronship with critical intelligence on enemies (and allies). However, nay think these guardsmen are an easy ride. Light Company specialists are extremely well trained with the kryss, a fast and deadly weapon, and also have some knowledge in the art of poisoning.

6th Regiment The Arcane Company.

The Arcanists claim to be the brains of the Army, spending most of their time reading or studying spells and enchantments. Arcanists are a support role for the Army, powerful in both offence and defence, able to take either role as necessary. In battle, the Arcanists are often a primary target, and so they normally try to enter after the first strike, to avoid the first volley of attacks, in order to throw off the enemy's targetting, and mop up what is left what is left. Don't underestimate this squad because of the Arcanist's stature and the lack of the muscles of the Covian warriors, their powerful and well trained minds are to be feared.



If you wish to apply or make public your intentions to join a squad please contact their commanding officer or add your name to the lists on the respective notice boards.
