OK what started out as a list of "vipers" in my verse turned into a spreadsheet of "whos in charge of what" which lead me to the question...how exactly do all of these soldiers become vipers?
so for the past 2 days i've been reading filecards...every cobra filecard...including multiple versions looking for discrepancies...Using filecards and ONLY filecards as my basis for "fact" i built a flow chart...the purpose would be to have it in a cobra recruiting station so potential recruits could "map" out how to be a strato viper...or a para viper. some liberties were taken when it came to the hierarchy...but that's only because i didn't agree with what was in the filecard (one example is the "swamp rat" character) I'm posting this here for feedback...as i have a few other segments of cobra i need to workout (for instance how do you become a crimson guard...a nightstalker etc) but i think this covers nearly every occupation...i say nearly because i refuse to believe that i got every single one on the first try So if any of you care to see how i believe someone becomes a Star Viper or a Decimator...take a look at the flowchart...offer your feedback and ask questions while i'm amassing funds for my diorama build this is pacifying the creativity in me. UPDATE: added Crimson Guard, Crimson Shadow Guard, Crimson Guard Immortal, street viper, nightwatch, and heavy water UPDATED added Python Patrol, consolidated Nightwatch, moved shock viper, moved ice viper, added cobra paratrooper.

I think this is good- what a hell of a work it must have been to put together. Hope I don't hurt your feelings when I tell you the real way Cobra assigns military occupational specialties....
new recruit walks in to ARBCO office in Peru.. "I wish to serve the snake" ARBCO agent (Cobra Recruiterviper in disguise) looks at him.. "You look like a hard charger. What's your dog's name?" "Huh? um.. Boxer" "Good. What year Pinto do you drive?" "How did you know I.... 1978" "I see. When was the last time you swam 100 laps?" "100 laps? I've never swam that far." "Oh. Well what's your mom's sister's name?" ".......er........ Maria......" "I see. 10 + 23 + 789+ 20 + 134... You're gonna be a swamp Viper "... |
