Ok, I need some 5punky input for the 'groups' that I'm mentally developing for 5punkorp's future organizational structure.

FOR DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES ONLY, I have used US Army grouping terms and sizes. They are as follows:

Team 2-4 soldiers plus a team leader.
Squad 2 teams and a squad leader.
Platoon 4 Squads, a platoon seargent, and a Platoon Leader, (first officer level, a lieutenant)
Company 4 Platoons, (one of which is usually designated as a support platoon), a First Seargent, and a Company commander.

There are larger units, but not that will be achieved in the short term. If we reach Company level in 3 months it will be AMAZING.

My thinking is that a 'team' can probably work through missions or ratting in low sec in a group very well, whereas a squad is a good sized wolf pack that can kill things without risking much at all. A platton could do serious damage in a fight, and a company could take on capitals! But I do feel the names aren't 5punky enough, and could really use help there.

I've asked a friend in the Navy what their 'groups' are called, and he's going to work up a list, but I would really prefer the 5punky 5pin on things.

Bummers 2-4 Bummees plus a Bummer.
BumSquad 2 Bummers and a Bumsquad Bummer.
Bumtoon 4 BumSquads, a Bumtoon Bumgeant, and a Bumtoon Bummer, (first Bumficer level, a Bumtenant)
Bumpany 4 Bumoons, (one of which is usually designated as a support Bumtoon), a First Bumgeant, and a Bumpany Bummander.

I hope I have been helpful.

I think this would be awsome to have with a large mass of frigs (20+) that are fitted with smartbombs...
