Hello All,Comet lance. It seems slow, but it moves at a fairly consistent pace before disappearing from sight. It is also quite bright, and shiny.
I'm looking for an alternative name for a lance in my force.
Now here is the catch..... I don't want to use Assault or Fire or Command.
The lance looks like this.
Marauder-3D (CO)
LongBow-7Q
Stalker-3F
Awesome-8Q
Currently I'm debating 2 different options, neither of which is thrilling me.
Dragoon ... From SLDF standard.
Siege ... Because the lance just looks like it it can lay siege to your base.
That said I'm curious if anyone else out there has some creative alternate options that jump out at me.
Rook and Knight. If you get a light lance you can call it Bishop. Infantry is, of course, Pawn. If you have proper artillery it's Queen and your dropship is King.
Artillery is King son(https://img0.etsystatic.com/005/0/7057982/il_570xN.393595204_qy7o.jpg)
1. Barrage lance. it is a firepower kind of lance, long range and with serious hurt being dished out.
2. Brawler lance. Short ranged, dirty, jumpy, beat them up & in your face kind of mechs.
Bombardment Lance for the first.
Close Assault Lance for the second.
What? No Stompy McStompStomp Robot Lance?
Yeah, I agree with ThePW that its going to be labeled a assault or fire support lance by any opfor . . . but if you are looking for internal names, how about the Steamrollers?
I always liked what I saw in the modules. Phonetic Alphabet. A weight designation, lance type.
Alpha Fire.
Bravo Heavy Scout
Charlie Medium Striker.
This is sort of where I'm going with this but I was trying not to duplicate the same "type" of unit.
8 of my 10 lances are named already:
Assault
Command
Fire
Heavy
Medium
Pursuit
Recon
Striker
The remaining 2 are those above that I'm looking for alternatives to.
