Metal of Iron Guard?

Only after writing this article (well, looking up stuff, cutting, copying, and pasting it really) I notice an inconsistancy. Basically I'm not sure Barktooth and Karag are Metal Guard or Iron Guard (or maybe divided among both teams?). BeyondUnreal seems to believe (have believed) they are both Metal Guard, and I've always thought so myself. Although their designs deviated quite a bit from UT's Metal Guard, the whole mask theme doesn't fit with Iron at all, and the overall look doesn't really either. Actually the only reason I'm confused now is that in Karag's description it says "Iron Guard"... which I think is just a mistake by Epic. Did this ever come up before, when the bonus pack was just released maybe? Was this ever cleared up? (I just noticed Karag was recently added to Iron Guard as well, so I'll add a link here on that Talk page.)

It might indeed be a screwup, but we have to take it at face value, I think. If UT3 comes around and they're both in, yeah, we can assume it's a screwup, but for now, it says Iron Guard - so I think we should put him there. --Dark Pulse 22:50, 17 August 2007 (EDT)

please note that:
Barktooth made his first appearance in UT DM Single Player Ladder. Bot Classifications=Psychotic
"Barktooth is a madman. Screaming with berserk rage, he would rather rip an opponent to shreds with his bare hands than fight from afar. When forced to use a gun, he favors the Flak Cannon's close range stopping power."
source: UT Single Player Ladder DM-Liandri
"Barktooth just can't be put down. His brute force tactics and disregard for his own well being have paid off as he moves even higher in the tournament ladder."
source: UT Single Player Ladder DM-Conveyor
his player model in UT Single Player Ladder is Botpack.TMale2Bot,SoldierSkins.Gard,SoldierSkins.Drake. from his skin i think he should be in Metal Guard instead of Iron Guard. --Pwyzpk 11:02, 18 August 2007 (EDT)

We're talking about where the UT2004 versions of Barktooth and Karag fit in, Pwyzpk, not where they go in the original UT. --Dark Pulse 20:01, 18 August 2007 (EDT)

Just keep'em here. They have Metal Guard gear. That is propably a typo. --QJohnnyp 09:09, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
