Red coloured pages means there isn't a page for it. It's a broken link.

It would sound exactly the same if used in the show, so there would literally be no distinguishing between the two on a battlefield.

"Sir! There's Knightmare!"

"A Nightmare? Well, a single team should be able to handle that."


 * Team gets slaughtered because they were prepared to fight a low level Nightmare, not a high level Knightmare, and the person doing the reporting wouldn't know that the team was being sent out as though they were dealing with a Nightmare because in his mind the commandig officer would say Knightmare.

You see the problem? That is why they add different words to the original in the case of Alpha Beowolf and Ursa Major. Because someone doing a report on them would be able to quickly give the correct threat level according to the name they use.

There's no real point to it. Better to call it something like Nightmare Stallion, or Mustang, or Brumby (the latter two of which are both words for wild horse. Mustang is American and Brumby is Australian). Add an extra word so that anyone doing a report will know to add said word if it's a higher threat level than a normal Nightmare.
