Unit in focus : The 6th Legion

The 6th Legion has for the entire regime of Ronald been the premier unit in the Dino Army and the Emperor's vanguard though some wonder now if the unit's days are numbered. The 6th is a special legion in that it's number cannot exceed 200 and currently is at nearly half that. Before the reign of Ronald began the 6th was a normal legion in the army, however when the SS Commander Telavason attempted a coup the 6th (then under the command of Jimmy) marched on SS HQ. During a bitter battle the 6th and the SS blasted each other to pieces. When Ronald slew the usurper and ended the coup the 6th had been reduced to a mere 192 uninjured soldiers.

After Ronald became Emperor he decided to keep the 6th at that manning level, and the 6th became his vanguard. Always accompanying him on missions and becoming full of specialists. All members of the ruling circle are officially members of the 6th. In recent years the legion has shrunk in size due to natural wasteage and combat losses. Nowadays there are more elite and specialist units in the Dino armed forces so some wonder if there is a need for the 6th legion anymore. Its unlikely the unit will dissappear as long as Ronald remains Emperor though, his bond with the 6th is very strong.
