Some things just do not stand up well to being shortened especially when dealing with different languages. Yes, "Bicicletta" could be "Fant.Ciclista" ( that contraction will actually fit ) but it's been "Bicicletta" for years without complaint and we've had Italian speaking playtesters. Art Marittima -> Art Costiera; "Marine artillery" vs Costal artillery. Yes, I suppose that's somewhat more accurate. Ricerca MC could be just "Motociclisti" but the original term has been in the OOB for years as well and was intended to represent it's scouting function I could use "Espl. MC" but really.....which is "more correct" ???
