> It definitely would be a waste of brainpower to employ Jesuits as light

There have been and, I assume, still are fighting units with almost as
rigorous scholastic credentials, though they tend to be very specialized. Not
to mention, some of the Jesuits I've known have been as tough, mentally
and physically, as what few marines I've met. ;->=

Personally, I rather liked the idea of a New Vatican City being rather spare
and focused.

BTW, Karl, your note came through twice, with the only difference seeming to
be a query about 'fighting SF monks' at the end of one.

Of course, there are several, from Warzone thru Games Workshop, but these run
a bit large, and more than a bit silly. I think there were some in the
Grenadier Nightmares line that might work, but I don't see the ones I'm
thinking of on Nemo's page.

Lastly, not all monks wear long cassocks; there are civvies, with the right
ornamentation, that seem rather promising.

PS As an aside to Beth, even an American rustic, such as myself, has heard the
term 'corker'...

G'day,

I'd opt for tarting up civvies too, though some of the Necromunda gangers can
turn out ok if you take your time and think it through (unfortunately mostly
up the back of the pic at
http://www.users.bigpond.com/derekfulton/Gallery/Gallery.htm under the
miscellaneous link) - my mother-in-law wasn't quite so thrilled with my
pain jobs when she realised they were all orders of the catholic church... I
believe my protestant heritage came in to question at that moment;)

'I'd opt for TARTING UP civvies too,...'

On the other hand, that's a phrase I will NEVER get used to! ;->=

PLEASE tell me the robes are colored blue, white, and red...

Well there's a fair amount of white and red....;)

Have fun
