Ah. Like real ife military. Also that is a very cool idea coming up with a neologism based on egyptian lore. Norse mythololgy is far more frequent these days up to the point were it gets kind of challenging to find a name, one hasn't already used. Interesting indeed.^^

Yep I do use a lot of mythological creatures and deities. Preferably but NOT exclusively from the Bronze age. Khertland's name come from Khertet, which Neter-Khertet, one the ways the Egyptian underworld is transcribed. I'm not a Egyptologist so I don't know why there's like half a dozen names for the same thing... But Since Neter is in FtD, I thought I'd name my country after Khertet and thus Khertland (so many countries end with land.
As for my designation system, They are essentially English abbreviations where I try to make it different from RL ones to prevent confusion. IE> MI = mechanized/motorized infantry, UT = Universal tank/main battle tank, IF - indirect fire(this would be designated as IF), and so on.

Didn't really know your naming convention in regards to the abbreviations (could have used German military ones, but that would be close to toture for some people) but I did recognize a lot of mythological creatures and the occasional egyptian god here and there. So I went with the god of the underworld/judgement in the afterlife thing.

It looks really good, and some of the decor gave me new ideas

Wow! This is a huge honor. You definitely did capture the aesthetic. I recall you asked if I had plans for something similar. And indeed I did but it never worked out as intended since I wanted to use a cluster munition. So I'm glad you made a ballistic missile instead. "Fine, I'll do it myself" XD. I'll add this to the collection ;)
