There are two specialist detachments that members of the legion can aspire to join, should they show the mettle, bravery, and speed of thought to do so. Members of these detachments can expect special assignments that increase the risks they face, but can also be well rewarded. They also may get access to specialised training beyond that available to normal rank and file soldiers.
These two detachments are:
The Legion Scouts - The Legions' own scouting unit who, similar to the Mistwalkers, are expected to be able to skirmish and survive on their own, as a result they receive a large amount of cross-training with the Mistwalkers
The Protectorate Rangers - The Best of the Best, invite only. The most loyal and skilled of the Legion may one day receive the great honour to be invited to become a ranger, they are expected to excel in small unit actions, often behind enemy lines, and emerge triumphant and alive, using brains and brawn in equal measure.
