OK.. post a list of what you think should be our guild ranks.

as i'm a bit of a lore-head so i try to keep it warhammer-esque im gonna put:

Leader = Grand Master / Warlord /

Senior officer = Champion / War Chief

Officer = First Knight / Elder

Sr. Memeber = Knight / Dragoneer

Member = Legionarre / Soldier

Jr. Member = Adept / Errant

Recruit = Squire / Acolyte

thats all i can think of at the moment. drunken

* Lord Commander Militant of the Imperial Guard (commands the entire Imperial Guard)
* Lord Commander Militant (High Commander Militant) (commands hundreds of millions)

ok new idea, use warhammer directly i think rank names should be racial also i think theres no need for a recruit rank, i think recruit them right in to jr.member, so:

Key: Dwarf | High Elf | Empire |

Leader ---- Rune Lord | Prince | Grand Master

Sr.Officer ---- Anvil Guard | Pheonix Guard | Captain

Officer ---- Long Beard | Sentinel | First Knight

Veteran ---- Warrior | Noble | Knight

Member ---- Iron Beard | Guardian | Duellist

Jr. Member ---- Miner | High Helm | Free Companies

So there you go, i got all these titles from warhammer Gamesworkshop website, so its in keeping with the lore and i haven't used stuf thats been used al rdy by the game (some class names are in the resource)

Let me know what you think? cheers

The guilds' IC lore is dwarven in nature so I support using the Dwarf rank names as above.

Not sure the Guild system allows for multiple name ranks...

Aye your right not enough ranks, so i whittled it down to:

Leader = Grand Master/Rune Lord ( depending if Ym likes)
Sr. Officer = Captain/Sentinel
Officer = 1st Knight
Sr.member = Knight
Member = Guardian
Jr.Member = Free Companies

I'd exchange 1st knight with the Sentinel option.
That way you don't have 2 knight titles.
Maybe even flip around the Sentinel and Knight.

Leader = Grand Master/Rune Lord
Sr. Officer = Captain
Officer = Sentinel
Sr.member = Knight
Member = Guardian
Jr.Member = Free Companies

There's about 10 ranks max.

how about:

Leader = Ym's choice
Sr. Officer = Champion
Officer = Sentinel
Sr. Member = Knight
Member = Anvil Guard/Sargent/Dragoneer (3 for each race)
Jr. Member = Free Companies
Recruit = Acolyte

that makes 9 ranks, one left for alts perhaps.

what do you think?

Anything happen off the back of this, Ym? I know I'd like some more atmospheric rank names!
