Houses that serve the City State:
Vlos: Based out of the provisional ward of Jiv'undus, Minor House.
Renor Velven: Based out of the provisional ward of Karas, Minor House
Elemmiire: Based out of the provisional ward of Anhui, Great House.
Ahn Ri'Zun: Based out of the provisional wards of Covu, Zakath, and Anhui. Great House.
Renor Velven: Conscripts. What other nations might refer to as " weekend warriors." They are no less vital and usually tasked with occupational duty, unless needed otherwise. They also perform the vital function of operating MASH units and other medical needs. They are composed of infantry, light-medium armor, and medical/mechanical services.
Vlos: The first and foremost in any fight. They are the ground forces, and conventional armor as well as mechanized legionnaire deployment sections. The fashion of the Rhydinian ability to blitzkrieg their troops in large numbers is due to the high amount of the Vlos. They constitute nearly thirty percent of the total military population.
Elemmiire: Special Forces. Of the ability of say the Spetnaz. They are paratroopers first and foremost and capable of securing advanced positions, or creating them. Composed of both highly trained infantry, and that of the combat engineer.
Ahn Ri'Zun: The Ahn Ri'Zun are the key to the Imperial Republic's rule and in turn serve as elite shock-troops in correspondence with other regular legionary units. Ahn Ri'Zun are trained from infancy on the provisional ward Sicaria. Sicaria is home to the vicious training grounds of the Ahn Ri'Zun, who fight voraciously in a mock-up of natural selection - ensuring that only the best enter formal service. Unlike many armies of the free world, the intense difficulties of simply surviving the barren terrain and fellow populace on Sicaria leave only the toughest alive.
They follow the same orginizational setup under legions, each composed of ten brigades of roughly 30,000 soldiers each and are a major component of the ground warfare. They also have dedicated artillery, anti-aircraft, anti-armor detachments available to them.
Rhydin Home Guard: Ground ForcesThe Home Guard military legions have undergone a serious upgrade and modernization program for the last ten years in anticipation of further action against their former homeland as well as maintaining the peace and security of their current home.
