I need help coming up with a name for my guardsmen's regiment, who are painted in urban camo, and for the most part going to be played on an urban table. They are gonna be cantered around things like tanks...though not too much, because i like the whole, WW2 soviets in moscow mass charging the germans, if you can picture that. One name i came up with derives from roman warfare was the 188th Urban Cohort, and another the 302nd Cataphract Guard;

Ill attach pictures of how they look:

How about the Regulators? (From the great western 'Young Guns".

)

188th Urban Moth Balls xD

**Waaagh_Gonads**

If you like russians ypou need to have the word 'guards' in it.

91st Vangasgrad Guards Regiment.

Uses your user name, ties into your fondness for russian military and ties in with 'Imperial Guard'

**Yangas91**

All very interesting indeed, especially the moth balls one, where ever that came from lol, would love to hear more ideas though keep them coming!

Exactly what is this thread doing in the WFB fluff forum?

**Napalm**

Not to knock the roman idea but I don't know if most would get what a cohort is and you'd probably get endless gried from people saying (about the second one) "They don't look Catachan to me."

Ideas based on the Russian thing:
188th Steel Guard (based on their color scheme, which is good looking)
The One-Eighty-Eigth Bayonets
188th Gladius Guard / Regiment, etc (since their bayonets look to be as long as the Roman shortsword, aka Gladius)

The Regiment of wrongforumness.

**Golden Eyed Scout**

Despite it's the wrong furom, I can relate. Posted a few things in the wrong forums myself. But i digress.

The Russian Dudes, Dudes who have Russian names, Stalingrad's Guards, Stalins Iron Korp?

Pick a name you like, and would be happy with, and you can't go wrong.

Hey guise, did you notice this was in the wrong section?
It should be in the 40k fluff, but this is the Fantasy section, so it's in the wrong section.

**Krusha123**

Wow, the guy explains why he may have put it in the wrong forum, then Orkeosaurus finally notices it's place... an hour later.

Personaly, I kinda like the Russian idea...Soviet S.W.A.T!
Lol.

**jp400**

Russian akdov!

**ifyouseekamy**

The Imperial USSR

Soviet Imperia

Imperialis Russianis

Moscow's Militia (goes with the Urban them, as militias are based on citizens)

Krushchev's Death Korp (post-WW2, but still Russian)

Dictator > Emperor

Communism > "IF YOU DIE, I'LL KILL YOU MYSELF!"

**burb1996**

132nd Imperial Soldata Brigade- Or whatever the russian name for soldier is is my recomendation.
