The Vice-regal Guard Company in Mexico City & the Texas Rangers do not sent recruiting parties to American Goals!!!
These units accept volunteers from a) the Spanish-American Noble & Gentry classes b) men who have shown extreme valour or c) preformed a service the Viceroy wants to reward.
Basically:
a) Is Tom of Spanish-American Noble Blood or married to one?
b) Has he single handed saved a Spanish Lady from Bandits or Pirates?
c) Rode 160 miles across a burning desert dodging arrows to bring advance warning of a Apache Raid?
d) Does he know the location of Blackbeards latest base?
Basically what we want more proper Swashbuckling like the Three Musketeers in the America's and less Captain Blood meets Titus Oats.
Still I have no doubt the Czars Navy in the America's have lower standards. Just show a willingness to drink Vodka rather than Rum and Tom is half way to his Admirals Flag!
