Shiawase - ???

Scroll back/use the search option. This question was answered pretty recently (last couple of months).

IMHO SK Prime doesn't really belong on that list. IIRC (mostly from Corporate Download) SK Prime is sort of an auditing/in-house consulting/internal affairs department, not a military unit.

Perhaps we should wait for Corporate Guide to get the info.

SK-Prime also takes over security concerns for any division they're currently "auditing". And they doe some intelligence work. I'm not sure they're really special forces in the "go get them" kind of way. They're known to hire shadowrunners for various things.

Shiawase is the MFID or something like that IIRC... some Marketing/intelligence group. But they aren't a military spec-ops outfit, just an intelligence agency.

I'm not sure all the AAAs even have big special forces teams. Certain divisions may have a specialized security department or so.

According to Corporate Download, Shiawase has the Spirit Company, special forces in neo-samurai style armors.
Yamatetsu had the Special Security Detail, but they were bodyguards, occasionnaly engaged in black ops. Yamatetsu Naval Technologies was also considering, at that time (2061) the creation of a combat diver unit (SEAL type) with the help of the Russian military, with no name given. Evo probably still has one or both.

This kind of post is a pet peeve of mine. Telling somebody that they need to go search is not just lazy, but it clutters up search results in the future. I've had dozens of Google searches dead-end in forums because people didn't take the time to link to the posts they remember. Don't get me wrong, Angelis, you're cool smile.gif but these posts make me crazy.

I found a post by Degausser from last October that had a similar list. I think this is the one AngelisStorm is thinking of. Looks like some good info in there, I'm gonna go check it out myself.

<<EDIT>>

Looks like that post got linked back to this thread by Thanos007.
