Sadly, no, I don't have a lot of time on my hands, or I'd have finished this a month ago. I'm basing all of this off of current Cobra knowledge - that is, using all of the troops known and applicable (I'm still trying to work out the ridiculous factor), in addition to vehicles. But I was thinking - how, and where, would Cobra be able to keep these forces? That's the hardest thing to figure out.

I thought I remembered seeing a post on this some time ago, but I can't find it; How many soldiers does Cobra have? Alotted to Air, Naval and Ground Corps, dispersed among the various Troopers, Officers, Crimson Guardsmen, Vipers, Tele-Vipers, Motor-Vipers, Techno-Vipers, Eels, Snow Serpents, Desert Scorpions, Incinerators, Decimators, Range-Vipers, Rock-Vipers, Sea Slugs, Ice-Vipers, Secto-Vipers, Alley-Vipers, Star-Vipers, Strato-Vipers, W.O.R.M.S., etc. etc. - has anybody broken down how many individuals fill the slots for these forces? Just wondering. I'm in the process of doing something similar, after breaking down all the individual forces into separate categories, figuring out what froce would make another obsolete, what type of training they would have, etc.
EDIT: Nevermind. I just read someone else's post who confirmed it was the Game's Master episode. Last edited by jaxscorpio; 07-25-2008 at 10:08 AM.. |

I haven't had the time to follow this up yet. As I got further into it, I found that there are multiple variables to consider. First, what time frame would we be looking at? I always assumed that I would use Cobra at their height of power, and include all of their individual troops. But then, would the basic blue Troopers have been grandfathered out by the Viper corps? I don't recall seeing much of them in the comics after the multiple Vipers started showing up. But I'd like to keep them around anyway. Then, there are other factors, like all of the guys behind the scenes - like the various supply officers, armorers, dentists, cooks and what-not. Factoring in the technological advances since the inception of Cobra, they'd need an IT crew to deal with their mainframe. I don't think the Tele-Vipers would do this, as their main military specialty would be used primarily in a combat arena. Likewise with Medi-Vipers, Techno-Vipers and on and on. Realistically, a force of this caliber would need it's own country to operate. One of these days I'll have the time to finish what I started here. But right now, I'm using what little time I have of my own (aka not at work) to do other projects I have.
