Renaming!
Added 2025-02-12 22:35:11 +0000 UTCI will be renaming Cooper's PMC, as extensively discussed in the discord, but I wanted to drop a poll here as well since I know many aren't in the discord. I'll be filtering the options from the discord poll (there were simply a lot) and bring you all the most viable ones. I'd like to honor democracy but tbh I have my favorite. Still, I will listen to the wants of my people. It's not everyday that I open something like this up for public decision :)
The poll closes at 1AM PST, about 10.5 hours from the release of this post. Select the option you think would be best/coolest for the PMC/Paramilitary as a whole, the one manning the Glass Desert, and also feel free to drop suggestions in the comments. You may want to consider what sounds best in:
"Welcome to '----------'"

Alternatively the us 13th Armored Division had the nickname "Black Cat" which could work by having Daywisp the Owlkat be the mascot

2025-02-27 21:58:47 +0000 UTCThe Devil's Brigade could work, it was the first US special forces unit. It was also known as the First Special Service Force (FSSF)

2025-02-27 21:55:06 +0000 UTCSpade i am wondering when you are releasing more of your American series you are doing 👍

2025-02-27 10:55:32 +0000 UTCI mean it was a opportunity for you to be funny or maybe share some history since I know jack shit about pazer but you just got defensive. Why so sensitive man.
Lee
2025-02-18 05:08:14 +0000 UTCI’m partial to outer heaven. PMC core with the power to topple governments and ideals to challenge politicians. Sounds like a certain snake.
Vash
2025-02-14 00:19:52 +0000 UTCWith respect, after what happened with the real blackwater, that may not be a great option

2025-02-13 20:44:30 +0000 UTCIron legion makes the most sense.
john Vargas
2025-02-13 20:16:15 +0000 UTCDoes that threaten you somehow or do you just like being a dick

2025-02-13 18:43:53 +0000 UTCThis is an underrated comment
ForsakenChief
2025-02-13 17:45:09 +0000 UTCThe counter intel unit would be Shadow company.
J.R. Turner
2025-02-13 14:01:39 +0000 UTCWill probably be the name of his soul gem collection machine
Aizen Weeks
2025-02-13 08:53:13 +0000 UTCI was surprised he called his R&D base Wonderland. Expected Area 51 or Manhattan
Aizen Weeks
2025-02-13 08:52:04 +0000 UTCIron Legion is the most Texan of the options I think. I will say he better make a proper Star fort, or bastion fort as they are called. Proper for gun emplacements and distance observation. Bring in the magic Howitzers rain hellfire!!
Aizen Weeks
2025-02-13 08:48:06 +0000 UTCI like Iron legion for the PMC, I can see where your going with John compartmentalising the sovereign to another team like THREAT CORE for the special forces. 👍🏾
Ayman EL-Agabani
2025-02-13 08:45:01 +0000 UTCI had to go with Iron Legion because it make me think of the Charr from GW2.
Druid
2025-02-13 07:45:41 +0000 UTCI’m surprised it would be called pentagon because I would expect his friends and him to hit max tier and they would be the five corners of the world’s power.
IdolTrust
2025-02-13 06:25:56 +0000 UTCDefinitely iron legion. It has a Warhammer feel to the name and would be a inside joke for john
JollyRodger
2025-02-13 06:19:56 +0000 UTCand the special forces division would be the Grime Reapers.
J.R. Turner
2025-02-13 06:04:50 +0000 UTCAfter a few hours to think about it, maybe Area 51? Or Independence?

Travis Freeman
2025-02-13 05:00:00 +0000 UTCWith cooper's mind fortress and his mechanized troops iron legion just makes sense
Sam
2025-02-13 04:45:30 +0000 UTCAn American from TX making his last stand in a new world? It has to be the Alamo.

Cristian Valencia
2025-02-13 02:13:34 +0000 UTCI vote big red one then he can steal some their nicknames too. :)
shes got the jack
2025-02-13 01:49:52 +0000 UTCWhen almost becomes a tactical success 🤣🤣🤣🤣 i love it
ForsakenChief
2025-02-13 01:25:01 +0000 UTCThen it's more roman than american... that doesn't really line up with Johns sensibilities.
ForsakenChief
2025-02-13 01:24:18 +0000 UTCSo they're still active. A name change means nothing to me. That said tho, Iron Legion just sounds better considering John's methods, IMO.
ForsakenChief
2025-02-13 01:19:24 +0000 UTCEminent Domain is BS. Should be illegal, lol. Anything but that.
Roman Koziol
2025-02-13 01:07:09 +0000 UTC…. Panzer wants a Panzer Corps go figure
Lee
2025-02-13 00:50:28 +0000 UTCSo I chose Iron Legion by black water is no longer active. They changed their name after that false charges were accused and dropped but put a bad name about them.
Lee
2025-02-13 00:49:05 +0000 UTCThe big D
Travis Freeman
2025-02-13 00:42:15 +0000 UTCEminent Domain seems weird considering John's aversion to taxes. I'd think that would transfer to the government taking people's land for pennies on the dollar as well.
D375
2025-02-13 00:26:01 +0000 UTCPersonally I'm happy with what you already named them, Spade. That being said I'll still vote based on the options given. Also, what's the Discord exactly? I never knew there was one.
Lynn Hollinger
2025-02-13 00:25:34 +0000 UTCShadow Wizard MONEY Gang
Raganash
2025-02-13 00:23:08 +0000 UTCThe Onerous Collective . . . The 409 also sounds catchy - the cleaner not the area code. Not sure if it fits the mood though. The Iron Legion is nice and American. Gotta put a blood iron brigade/company in there at some point, if so. Guns and meat - equally American
Scat Splat
2025-02-13 00:03:18 +0000 UTCYou could use shadow company for his personal scout/spy unit
Robert J Leeds
2025-02-12 23:59:14 +0000 UTCOkay. I made sure no one’s commented this, but the Arctic Angels would be a good one

SMH Ace of Spades
2025-02-12 23:47:45 +0000 UTCShould go with an American armored division, old ironside, hell on wheels, thundering herd.
johnathan stewart
2025-02-12 23:18:32 +0000 UTCI would have suggested Iron Shield. But we are only voting foe the options offered. Or maybe Ghost Riders?
J.R. Turner
2025-02-12 23:10:37 +0000 UTCAnd outer heaven was made by an American who was the best at what he did, wage war, alone or with allies. Big boss was literally a one man army, makes sense in my opinion.
ColcytusRising
2025-02-12 23:07:28 +0000 UTCAw but outer heaven? It's literally a classic

2025-02-12 23:05:54 +0000 UTCSteel Fist?
William Langford
2025-02-12 23:01:46 +0000 UTCIron legion bc it fits and bc the locals would understand and like it. Eminent domain is great bc america and the fact he is about to take over everything so it really really fits from us the readers prospective but i ended up voting for the former.
Captain Greenhat
2025-02-12 22:59:28 +0000 UTCit definately has rich American Military history
307Bookworm_AOB
2025-02-12 22:59:06 +0000 UTCHorseshoes and Hand grenades Brigade, because we don't have to be THAT accurate with these weapons.

2025-02-12 22:58:14 +0000 UTCYou gotta name a fob this

2025-02-12 22:58:12 +0000 UTCEminent domain is hilarious
Gerald Morris
2025-02-12 22:57:59 +0000 UTCWhat is your favorite spade?

2025-02-12 22:56:41 +0000 UTCDelta Corp
Travis Freeman
2025-02-12 22:51:24 +0000 UTCThat was an operation name tho. Plus I like Euclids Anvil for the first operation :)
Sp4de
2025-02-12 22:48:08 +0000 UTCLegion X Stars & Strikes Shadlow Division
Adam Cassidy
2025-02-12 22:47:46 +0000 UTCMaybe just drop the “Iron” from “Iron Legion” and just go with: “The Legion”…
Raymond Mouton
2025-02-12 22:47:13 +0000 UTCCome on how is Desert Storm not an option!?
Nick
2025-02-12 22:46:24 +0000 UTCThe Undesirables lol add a little dig at the kingdom.
Travis Freeman
2025-02-12 22:44:52 +0000 UTCOld Ironside or Ironside would be my choice. Old Ironside was the name of a US Navy frigate back in the 1800's and was the name of the Artillery unit, 1st Division my dad was in back in US Army during the 70's. Maintains the Iron theme, its American based and actually refers to artillery/tanks.
307Bookworm_AOB
2025-02-12 22:42:28 +0000 UTCI think most of these names are quite common and somewhat overused, but I liked Eminent Domain. However, it looks like it's going to lose the poll. Iron Legion feels extremely cliché and overdone, but if it wins, that's democracy.
brent butter
2025-02-12 22:41:31 +0000 UTCSector one bro with cooper's mechanized mind it just makes sense canonically
Just a dude here to read Spades works
2025-02-12 22:41:18 +0000 UTCMaybe doves revenge or nonnens revenge
Ryan Gannon
2025-02-12 22:40:21 +0000 UTCIron Legion goes HARD! That's my vote. Blackwater is a real and currently active military contractor I think so may be best to avoid it.
ForsakenChief
2025-02-12 22:39:44 +0000 UTCIron Legion and Blackwater are insanely hard. Shadow Company seems too edgy and not on theme enough.
Krilko
2025-02-12 22:39:08 +0000 UTCAnd black water and Shadow Company have a bad rap
aerolyte
2025-02-12 22:37:51 +0000 UTCGotta be between Blackwater and Outer Heaven for me, though Iron Legion and Sector 1 are close
LolGamez
2025-02-12 22:37:38 +0000 UTCNone of these names sound American Enough
aerolyte
2025-02-12 22:37:19 +0000 UTCI like the sound of Eminent Domain, but Iron Legion goes hard af
Grant Mikelson
2025-02-12 22:37:15 +0000 UTCGiven that it looks to be a armored battalion Iron sounds good
Lee
2025-02-12 22:36:38 +0000 UTCMaybe 1st Panzer Corps
