Does anyone know if there are images of the Cygnarian Military Ranks insignia from Escalation? I'm looking to use them for something at Templecon (Its a secret... sorry;)). As a matter of fact I'm looking for images of the rank insignia of all the factions. Anyone have any made into files?

Thanks

It's not a swan, but I think this constitutes as Cygnar's highest honor.

I see how it is. Well, that's the kind of response I would expect from someone who's head exploded. ;-)

I know some models have different ranks on their shoulders (unit leaders, warcasters, and such) I would imagine if you match the insignia with the rank ie Lord Commander Stryker, you could get a few figured out.

Cygnar's emblem is a duck, and I will fight anyone who says otherwise.

In Superiority, IIRC, there is a complete listing of all the ranks and emblems that go with them. Just scan that page into Photoshop, and go crazy.

Here's (http://www.warmachine.org.uk/uploads/resources/fonts/IKSymbols.zip) a link to an IK Symbol font that includes all the stuff from Escalation. I've used it, and to get some truly impressive rank insignia or anything, some basic photoshoppery/GIMP talents are necessary, but nothing too hard. I'm in the middle of making magnetic 'nametags' that look like spell effects out of these for the Journeyman Warcaster, the Gun Mage Captain Adept (although that's on the backburner), and the non-unique warjacks.

Here's a sample: http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll285/PrudentMantis/Warmachine/JuniorName.png

Lower the opacity, print on an OHT, stick to a flying base, magnetise, and you're done!

Anyway, I just checked, and Cygnaran Military Ranks Sergeant - Warmaster General are letters 'h' through 'p' (small type), Cygnaran Mage Ranks are 'q' through 'u'. The Cygnus is at 'B'.

Khadoran Military Ranks Sergeant - Premier are 'J' through 'Q', Mage Ranks are 'R' through 'V', with service markings running from 'v' (0-4.9 years service) to 'z' (20-24.9yrs). Anvil-thingy at 'C'

Cryxian Thrall Markings for authority are 'W' for Warrior to 'Z' for the Mark of Asphyxious, and the Animation Glyphs are 'a' for Basic through 'g' for Arcane Power. Mark of Toruk at 'A'

Menoth gets nothing but a lonely Menofix at 'D'.

The rest of the faction symbols are Mercs at 'E', Circle at 'F', Legion at 'G', Skorne at 'H', and Trollbloods at 'I'.

Then the numbers are various symbols, with '0' being PP's logo, single apostrophe (') is the Iron Kingdoms logo, the Warmachine logo is '(', and the Hordes logo is ')'

Hope this helps!

I have Superiority. I don't have a scanner or Photoshop, hence me asking for help...:D

Escalation has the ranks as posted above. Superiority has some unit insignia's printed in it. There are some others scattered about, hidden in NQ's. Off the top of my head, I remember that the CRS symbol is on one of the letters in a Gavin Kyle file. The new Trencher Commando's insignia is on their design sketches in #27 or #26.

(slaps Mutton across the chops with a glove inlaid with an avocet symbol)

It is not a duck. The neck is too long. There is no species of duck (that I can think of) with a neck that long, except possible the Shelduck. Which is actually a goose.

Also, the wings are huge for a duck. And indeed a chicken. Could be a goose I suppose...

But it's a swan :)
