Hi InuzukaKiba,

Thanks for your post.

The French equivalent in-game of "Second in command" is "Bras Droit", which, more accurately, means "Right-hand man". I could change "Second in command" to be "Right-hand man" (or just "Right-hand", to avoid using 'man' when people don't find it acceptable), but, as Alyss-Sin suggests, there are people who would prefer to be "Second in command", rather than "Officer".
I can't see a French rank that would translate to "Officer" in English, so perhaps it was removed or changed in the French when the new ranks were added a while ago.

As for the other ranks not making sense, I've checked them all in French, and their English translations are correct, and accurate:
A l'essai - On Trial
Meneur - Leader
Bras Droit - Second in Command
Trésorier - Treasurer
Protecteur - Protector
Artisan - Craftsman
Réserviste - Reservist
Larbin - Dogsbody
Gardien - Guard
Eclaireur - Scout
Espion - Spy
Diplomate - Diplomat
Secrétaire - Secretary
Pénitent - Penitent
Boulet - Nuisance
Déserteur - Deserter
Bourreau - Torturer
Apprenti - Apprentice
Marchand - Merchant
Eleveur - Breeder
Recruteur - Recruiting Officer
Guide - Guide
Mentor - Mentor
Elu - Chosen One
Conseiller - Counsellor
Muse - Muse
Gouverneur - Governor
Assassin - Murderer
Initié - Initiate
Voleur - Thief
Chercheur de trésors - Treasure Hunter
Braconnier - Poacher
Traître - Traitor
Tueur de familiers - Pet Killer
Mascotte - Mascot
Tueur de Percepteur - Perceptor Killer

If you would like more ranks to be added, they would first need to be created in the French client, and then translated. As this isn't a typo or spelling mistake issue, perhaps you could make a topic in the "Game Development" section with your suggestions, which would allow other people to have input as well.

Cheers,

HP
