Do you guys think the sieges were trained for combat with these Sabres or are the purely ceremonial? Not like your average gijoe wears any kind of armor and similarly ninjas are a heavily focused on in the line/series so swords are practical from that standpoint.
What are your thoughts on them?
From the file card:
“Crimson Guardsmen are too precious to be wasted on the conventional battle field. They are dispersed about the country in deep cover, assuming normal appearances and life-styles. Watch out. That friendly new neighbor of yours might just have a red uniform hanging in his closet....”
When you see CG’s in uniform it is almost certainly ceremonial. The Crimson Guard are covert operatives that are embedded into everyday society. They aren?t foot soldiers. They may don their full regalia while guarding or escorting Cobra High command but otherwise they go unnoticed to society at large. That’s what I took from the file cards and that’s how they operate in my Joeverse.
