Unit:1st Robinson Rangers

The Robinson Rangers Brigade are a roleplaying, House Davion-affiliated mercenary unit, working to ensure the continued existence of the Federated Suns. The unit has chosen to be a mercenary corp over a House unit because of the increased flexibility and control over the unit.

Comprised mostly of mature, aged 20+ players, the Robinson Rangers Brigade strive mostly to have fun and enjoy the Battletech universe. Focused on teamwork, the unit strives to complete missions and goals, and are not interested in personal glory, K/D ratios, or kill stealing. The Rangers employ small unit tactics and plan on operating in company-level engagements. Currently the Rangers are actively recruiting and are looking for new members to fill lance member positions - especially for Oceanic and European players. Promotions are based on activity and maturity. Player skill factors little.

Regiment Composition

 * 3 Regiments
 * 9 Battalions
 * 27 Companies

First and Third Regiments are reserved for North American players from the continental US timezones. Second Regiment is reserved for Oceanic and European players. (Alaskan, Hawaiian or overseas North American players are not prohibited from joining; they would likely be assigned to an Oceanic company). The intention of General Zombie is ensure that those who join play with people in similar timezones, similar play schedules and with similar interests and play styles. The Rangers will never force a player to play in a fashion he/she does not want, or in a way that the member does not find fun.

Each regiment has three battalions. The battalions are composed of three companies: two Regular Companies, and one Fire Support Company. Within each company, we have four lances: two Line Lances, one Scout Lance and the fourth can vary depending on teh company make up. The exception are the Fire Support Companies, who have two Fire Support Lances, and one Spotting Lance. As such, the Rangers accept players who are interested in any of these roles, and seek to hone their skills in the role of their choice.
