So, I was thinking about something I have not myself yet seen addressed in SR sourcebooks. Wouldn't the military have a higher ratio of trolls and orcs in it than any civilian agency? Traditionally, the military has been one of the few outlets for the both the poor and the marginalized to make decent money. Orcs and Trolls are amazing recruits for any kind of ground forces due to their strength and stamina, and I would imagine that forces like the U.C.A.S. Army would really roll out the recruiters in Orc and Troll communities, perhaps even trying to get orcs and trolls to have their children in hospitals so that the military can get more recruits with proper SINs.
I wonder if there aren't heavy weapons units almost entirely made up of trolls, as they're the only people who can carry and fire heavy weaponry, making them mobile weapon platforms that can also do other soldier duties, which I would imagine would be quite valuable. Besides, the thought of an Orc or Troll Marine is just...you know...scary. Any thoughts? |
