If Gurkhas were in Thermopylae, there would be no Iran today

An interesting article.  I had not known much about the Ghurkas beyond their involvement in World War 2 and some recent articles about gaining British citizenship.

I was able to briefly meet some Ghurkas. I never worked with them, but the American mercenaries...er I mean contractors...said they were really badass but sadly underpaid and in general just got screwed over by the company they were working for.

Don't **** with a Ghurka.

These guys will take you apart in ways you can't even imagine, after they've already owned your squad.

It should become a new D&D class.

Actually, it ought to be a paragon path for the fighter class, perhaps with variants for other defender classes (battlemind, swordmage, warden, paladin).

Yup, these guys have blood of distilled eau de badass, refined from the posessions of Theodore Roosevelt, Temujin (normally known as Genghis Khan), Miyamoto Musashi, and various other historical badasses among badasses.
