Imperial Ranger Corps.

The Imperial Ranger Corps. is an elite unit of skirmishers and support infantry within the Imperial Army of the Stahlheimian Empire, fulfilling a vital role in the Empire's endeavors. Those of the Ranger Corps. serve as scouts, spies, and an elite skirmishing force. They are some of the only men within the army that often act individually or in squadrons, moving through enemy lines in small groups to report on positions or sabotage supplies. The unique qualities that make a man a suitable ranger also make recruitment difficult, lending the Corps. a sense of mystique about their work and a great respect for members. Imperial Rangers have several uniforms for different circumstances, though the only one ever seen by members of the public is a thick padded doublet with the double-headed eagle of Stahlheim stitched upon the breast. They can also be identified by the dagger each man carries as a status symbol, the blade engraved with the words 'In the Empire's Service We Watch '.
