A nickname for our beloved Belgians

[Vincent_8798]

At the moment in the game, the squads are named in their native languages and some of them (Doughboys, Tommies, Poilus, Landser....) with a nickname. Only the Belgians are named in English, so my suggestion is to find a proper name or nickname (in Flemish) for this squad.

P.S. I also think that the generic "Canadians" for the Canadian squad should be replaced with "Canadian Assault Troops" or something similar.

How about for the Canadians. Les Canadien Soldat. Or the same thing

[Zlobenia]

Belges.

Canadians could be the CEF. Apparently Germans called the Canadians "Storm Troopers", However I'm not sure on the source of that.

[Vincent_8798]

A Belgian friend told me they can be called "Leeuwen" (Lions).

Waffle/chocolate makers?

this is very interesting. I did a quick search online, to find out just who these "Belgian Sentries" were. Piecing a few sources (credibility uncertain) together, the Belgian soldiers who wore top hats were Garde Civique or Burgerwacht.

once again this was a quick search, and i'm under-priviledged for not being a Belgian to know any better. That said, I'm waiting to hear more on this topic. For instance, I wonder what the Tommies called the Belgians, out of their rich colorful slangs.

Wafflemeisters?

I hope the Devs will change the name of the squad if we find the good nickname

[Lord of Gnarnia]

Horny Chocolate waffles desires

[Lord of Gnarnia]

Or German boy hunters

Remember we should find a nickname that could (hopefully) be implemented in the game. We are not joking.

Burgerwacht would definitely appeal to the American playerbase.

["Possibly" Shalfoon]

I third Burgerwacht. Then when the Italians arrive they can be Pastawatcha

[Schinken-Prinz]

*the muscles from brussels*

[Sodbrenner]

Chimney Sweepers...

Would only fit for the early war uniforms tho.
