For your act you were awarded the rank of Colonel and given this command, along with several medals of honor awarded by Lord General Militant of your theater himself.
You were granted it through the political workings of the Crusade, you were seen as a fit commander and neutral ground for the command of this regiment to be given to. The Warmaster and his council support you as the leader of this regiment, though the various factions within the Crusade may not feel the same.
