Hello thanks again for asking some valid questions.
I am sure with the unofficial subunit, you are referring to Black ops. I am not sure whose idea that was at the time nor do I know what their purpose was as that was at a time I wasn't in Rancor. However we do not plan to make ARF an unoffical Sub-Unit. Our only goal is to make a Sub-Unit that is comparable to Alpha and not tsomething people toss aside as soon as tehy get ARC. Also we are using the ARF Trooper as a base model because that is what our Rancor Trooper looks like. If we had Phase 2 we would use that aswell, but the base Rancor model was chosen to be an ARF Trooper so that is what we would use.
Why do we not give these Kits to TU? Because it does not fit with what an ARF unit does. Granted we could say that the server is not 100% lore accurate, but giving all the stuff we have currently in our suggestion would mean turning TU into an ARC unit. The specific suggestion asks for ARC-Kit + all the requested unique stuff. If we gave all of this to TU, it would make TU an ARC unit and be basically the same thing we are currently asking for. We are hoping to make Rancor overall more accessible if you look at the other suggestion and in turn have ARC be within our Subunit and with a few select Lore Characters. We are not asking to bloat rancor but redefine it with better Subunits and a Base Battalion that is more in line with others while still maintaining somewhat of a unique status with the ARC program.
