[MR] Northern Regional Badge Polling

[Lord Mungoe]

Another thing to think about is display of the badge on the individual fighter. A unit commander usualy cannot see a shield device, or a shoulder badge, in the middle of a melee. The enemy can ID you from shields devices, but the commander is usualy behind the units, as are resurecting fighters trying to get back to their units. Duke Bedford sugggested to Marinus years ago to used a Tors and Mantle with the Baronial device on it, works out real nice for unit ID, plus you can still use your own device on shield or tabbard.

Just a thought.

  We could always do something as simple as using the kingdom badge on
  different color pennons... the badge is registered, fieldless... Gold Spike
  on blue for the north, Blue on White for the South, White on blue for
  Central or some combination, everyone knows in Atlantia which is for which,
  easy pennons to make too... AND the Cav already has their own war standard,
  made, with a registered badge that toohas spike on it.  So, that would solve
  the problem.
