Skye Rangers
This article needs to be updated with material from Field Report 2765: LCAF. Once these titles clear the Moratorium period, or if they already have, please consider revisiting this article and updating it with the new material. |
Originally the army of the Federation of Skye, where the Skye Rangers were once synonymous with courage and resolution, many in the LCAF and LAAF see them as divisive for their ties and support of Skye independence movements like Free Skye. The Skye Rangers have maintained close ties to its parent state, recruiting almost exclusively from the Federation. As such, the unit frequently sides with the Duke of Porrima, not the Archon. Therefore, the brigades loyalties are questionable.
