I don't see CG's as frontline fighters at all. I see them mainly doing infiltration missions and maybe a small cell of them performing a quick night raid on a small target. I don't like the idea of them employing armor assets either. That would be reserved for HISS drivers, Track-Vipers and Nitro-Vipers.
I think I previously brought up that I was going to make some CG agents in my Joe-verse infiltrate county government. I think starting small and working their way up would be more the way to go to assert control over government. First Springfield, then other nearby small towns, then the county they reside in, then on to larger things. That county clerk people voted in could move on later to be a senator of that particular state....only he has a CG uniform hanging up in his closet.
I don't imagine there is a complete CG military unit any bigger than a small platoon? I agree for the most there isn't a real use for CGs on the battlefield as their main role is more in line with what you have John Shaft. CEOs, Board of Directors, County Clerks to Sheriffs to Representives. Still I do imagine a role for CGs on the battlefield.
I feel like the Immortals might only be very small unit. Maybe 20 -30? They rotate out as battlefield bodyguards and other battlefield duties when Cobra Commander is on the battlefield. Something like if your left flank is caving, Cobra Commander might send a couple Immortals to add some resolve to the wilting unit. All are Colonels.
I think the CG Commanders do command units. Perhaps small hit and run Special operations units. Can't imagine how those units would be comprised. I can't say how many of these guys there would be either? I mean are there squadrons of Crimson Vipers? Or is there Special Operations Squadrons mixing different Viper Classes run by a CG Commander. These guys are all Majors and Lt. Colonels. Crimson Elitehorsemen are the Mobility Troop Commanders of these units.
Shadow Guards are the Secret Police of Cobra.
I think there is a Crimson Guard attached to every cobra unit. Maybe only at the Battalion level? Maybe down to the Company level depending on the operation.
