Twilight state of the mind?

[Fusilier]

What are your thoughts on the transfer of all regular troops to Germany and their replacement by a fully mobilised Ulster Defence Regiment as per canon It seems to me to be almost inevitable, as HMG wont want to keep a Division's worth of trained troops in NI when there is a greater need for them elsewhere,

I don't have my books handy, but isn't that what happened Not right away, but I seem to recall reading they did part way through... or was that something non-canon

You're right, that's what happened in canon...but I'd be interested in Tigger's thoughts on it...

Re: the changing of the name to the Royal Irish Regiment, I always tend to stick with pre options for changes when it comes to unit names. Likewise, as I mostly go with the version 1 timeline, I still have the Troubles as on going, with no Good Friday agreement.

Oh I get you. I misunderstood, sorry.

I'm sure the former members of the Unsafe Document Regiment are glad that their name lives on somewhere

I should have made a point that the Royal Irish are split into two seperate sections - General Service and Home Service Battalions. The GS are a normal regular army formation that can be tasked exactly the same as any other unit, and consist mostly of what was formerly the Rangers and the HS units are exclusively deployed and based in NI. Whether that would stay the same in the event of the Twilight War is anyones guess, but I can see high desertion rates if any attempt was made to deploy the HS Battalion overseas, or even to mainland UK.
