The Fifth uses a variant of the Guards’ paint scheme, adding black and white highlights to their ‘Mechs and vehicles. The unit insignia of the 5th depicts a bulldog smoking a cigar.
The Sixth uses the standard blue-gray paint scheme of the Donegal Guards, but individual Mechwarriors often customize their machines, overlaying a pattern of swirling lines in a Celtic motif. The regimental insignia depicts a white hawk surrounded by interwoven vines.
Recognizing the unit’s ties to the ruling family, the insignia of the Seventh Combat Team depicts a blue-green world held in the Steiner fist.
