Hi all, I have been looking for a name for my Elysian Drop Troop army and havent had much luck, any suggestions?

The Elysian (insert number here) regiment?

Thanks, but i'm looking for something like "Hellbreakers"

Then use Hellbreakers. Or make a slight change to the name. Helljumpers? Deathlanders?

How about making the name connect to the Elysium/Elysian Plains or Greek mythology in general? "Argonauts" for example.

PS:
Not having read the Forgeworld books that had Elysian army lists... is there actually any connection between Elysia and Elysium? As in characters or locations being named similarly or something like that?

Their homeworld is the planet of Elysia, which is just named after Elysium. It is a civilised world (i.e. a world akin to our own) that relies heavily on trade.

The actual regiments themselves do not have nicknames as of now (i.e. no IA book has listed a regimental moniker). So go nuts, call them regiment XX the "????".

You could take a note from halo and name them the helljumpers, or name them after a bird of prey.

Thank for the suggestions
