(My first thread!)
O.K., I'll admit this was kinda inspired by some of the posts at the Valve vs. Zynga thread.
Now that that's out of the way, this thread is a sort of "custom soldier" (for lack of a better term) that you would be if The Escapist was a military force.
Since I can't really explain what this, so I'll give the basic outline:
If you can think of something else to add to this, post it along with the list. I'll add your suggestion, and I'll credit you.
Now that that's over, I'll start.
(I added spoilers to reduce the wall of text I made. You don't have to add spoilers to yours.)
Well, fellow Escapees, try it out!
EDIT: I'm adding a list for the battalions. I've already received some ideas for the names.
LoadingReadyRun: The Runner Battalion (or the official name, the LoadingReadyRunners)
Zero Punctuation: Zero's Heroes (name credited to Legion3321)
Please send more, we need more names like these!

Since I can't really explain what this, so I'll give the basic outline:
Rank:
Private- > 4 months
Corporal- 4-8 months
Sergeant- 8-12 months
Lieutenant- 12-16 months
Captain- 16-20 months
Major- 20-24 months
Brigadier General- 24-28 months
General- 28-32 months
Major general- 32-36 months
Admiral- Anything more than 3 years
(thanks to Lancer 723 for the revised system)
Preferred Weapons: Self-explanatory. You can choose any weapon for this, whether it be futuristic weapon, or a bow-and-arrow. You can also create a weapon, but you must describe it.
Battalion: Determined by what keeps you coming back to this site. Examples are the Runner Regiment (LoadingReadyRun), the Forum Honor Guards (the forums, news, polls, etc.). (PM me if you can think of good names for these battalions, as I'm not that creative.)
Major battles: Not sure I can explain this one well. I'll go back to the Valve vs Zynga example (dammit, not again). Participation on that thread would count as a major battle. Describe your role in said battle.
Other: Anything you would like to share with the rest of us. This is, of course, optional.
