Rank Insignia

[Kefa]

The Rank Insignia graphics have been missing on iOS since either the 5.0 or the 4.5 update, not sure which. I'm sure they exist somewhere around here, but I made this for myself with screen shots from a droid, and figured I'd share it here.

Get the feeling if these guys knew anything about military ranks they could have done a better job of it.

Thanks for sharing!

The accuracy of those depictions are as displayed.
Thank you for your efforts.

What baffles me is in what army on this planet (or the entire universe) would one find those ranks?

Yes, 1 through 5, 8 & 9 can be found in the US Army and Marine Corps.
Number 7 can be found in the US Navy and Coast Guard.
The silver over gold is also correct, except as one nears the bottom.
You'll never see a US General sporting a gold star, or a flag rank sporting a gold star either. LOL
The others, I have no clue.

[MrFister]

thanks for posting, I've been wondering what my rank looks like for a long time

[Wufnu]

OK Let's see.... In the US we have E1 to E9, WO1 thru 4, and O1 thru O10 if you count 1 thru 4 star Generals as O7 thru O10 for a total of 23. Gree has 26 ranks so we would have to use our imagination and come with with just 3 more ranks that would be believable. An easy one is "Sergeant Major of the Army" for "E-10" and we could have a 5 star Generals Rank for "O-11" so that leaves just one missing. Got it! Commander in Chief.

OK Gree that took me about 30 seconds to come up with a ranking system that would be something close to authentic.

Geez, They should hire me as a military consultant. :rolleyes:

Didn't have W-5's when I was in the service, but that leaves out the need for the CIC or it gives them one extra to add.
You could put a few more in there also, like Command Sergeant Major for instance.

Thank you Kefa!!!

[Kefa]

New and Improved, now comes with more fun!

[PollekeW]

What baffles me more is the numbers required for those ranks.
There is an increase in BP until Apollo Captain
After that you have to lose BP to get the next ranks until Chimera General.
And then you will have to gain BP again back to where you were to become Prime General.
The usual Gree Math I suppose.

[Twist of Cain]

Bump this up :D

this thread needs to be made sticky since i am sure a lot of people has to refer to it since i know mine is still blank and i am sure others are too.

[GSF Wingman GRI]

Should be sticked up somewhere...

[mickymacirl]

Thanks for the rank images

[Vegaman]

Thanks also Kefa, good to see who has the biggest Tap badges

[thescondo]

Thank you Kefa - this needs a sticky
]By the wait im on IOS - But what happens if a droid user goes over? lock out?

[mickymacirl]

Icons dont display for ios because the url of the images is wrong.

[PollekeW]

For once a real display issue ;)

[Bravo Zulu]

Thank you for posting this!

[krill]

This really should be at the top... great job Kefa!

Seems like that'd be an easy fix

This!!!! ^^^^ thank you Kefa, well done!!

[YankeePhil]

Bump me up scotty

[Ajk]

Very useful, thanks Kefa. I have been wondering a little more lately for some reason.

Just a thought (and in no way did Gree ever think of this), what about the '6 Star General'/General of the Armies that is ranked higher than anyone? Only given twice: Pershing after WWI and Washington (posthumously) but it is one extra rank.

[Skoalrulz]

Back to the top

[Rolinz]

I do not know why the Moderators can make this a Sticky Thread since we all need it and the rank insignia is another problem within the game?

Is that it, they do not want to admit there is a problem with this?

[Brown Out]

Nobody chases BP anymore. Well, nobody with atleast half a brain that is.
I never understood why people chased it in the first place. To much leveling up for very little in return.

That must be one long naughty word
