Suggestion: Change Icon/Insignia for Sergeant and Lieutenant

Postby MrSnarky on Sat May 12, 2007 9:18 am

This is a suggestion to change the icon/insignia for the Sergeant and Lieutenant ranks to be in line with actual military insignia. Currently, the rankings show two chevrons as a Sergeant and three chevrons as a Lieutenant.

My suggestion is to change the Sergeant insignia to three chevrons and change the lieutenant insignia to a single vertical, gold bar or a single gold star.

In the USA and UK army land forces (and most others), two chevrons is a Corporal. For all of the insignia I researched, it is standard for three chevrons to represent a Sergeant.

Lieutenants have various insignia around the world. In the USA and Canada, a vertical, gold bar signifies a lieutenant. Some countries use a gold star for a lieutenant. The UK uses a diamond-shaped emblem, but that would look similar to what Conquer Club already uses for a Captain.

I found examples of military insignia here:

Cheers,

Changing the icons is in the works. I just checked, and SGT and LT are changing. I think you'll be pleased.

Do any of the changes involve more ranks?
