Your Military size?

[DeusII]

The military forces are too complex to post in detail, yet they consist of:

Forces:
Imperial Ground Forces
Men: 82,000,000
In Active Service: 60,000,000

Imperial Air Service
Men: 15,000,000
In Active Service: 9,000,000

Imperial Nautical Division
Men: 3,000,000
In Active Service: 2,000,000

Imperial General Reserves
Men: 5,000,000
In Active Service: 0

Imperial Invasion Reserves
Men: 10,000,000
In Active Service: 10,000,000

Imperial Military Police
Men: 1,000,000
In Active Service: 1,000,000

Royal Military Enforcement Police
Men: 2,500,000
In Active Service: 2,000,000

Imperial Youth Military
Men: 80,000,000
In Active Service: 0

Imperial Military Service
Men: 60,000,000
In Active Service: 0

Around 250 million personnel overall including the reserves, youth service and military service, for a nation consisting of 2,000,000,000 citizens, fighting on one large front I don't think it's that bad. If you take out the reserves it's only around 100 million or so. Of course each citizen must be able and is able to be called upon if needed and each month they must do training at barracks.

Non-Militant
General Ministry of War Employees: 6,000,000
-Specialist Divisions: 1,000,000

Invasion Logistics and Command Employees: 3,000,000

[Nadanerabia]

Approximately 57,344,000 active personnel

[Novograd IV]

Novograd has few actual permanent military, we do however, demand all able bodied citizens show up to thier local barracks in the weekends for training (with thier own gun of course, and ammo). leaving Novograd with a rather large pool of semi-regular infantry.

[New Hayesalia]

About 9 million, all focused on border protection.

[Neo-Montana]

-FT-
***************

Right now the Republic of New Montana maintains a full military, which is the Army, the Marine Corps, and the Navy, of roughly 60,000 personnel.

-MT/PMT-
***************

Presently the Republic of Montana maintains something like 120,000 uniformed personnel, including reserve formations. This makes an astonishing ratio of 1/50 of servicemen to normal citizenry.

[Dom Isles]

Really, really small. 1 Million Strong Weak.

[Goldsaver]

3,692,000 men in our professional military, roughly .1% of our population. Our Militia is much larger however, as everyone who doesn't go to college is drafted into it for three years. As of now, we are not ready to make an exact estimate.

[Rolamec]

What is your nations Military size? don,t list one branch just total size.

My military size is 664 million strong.

We don't have militaries, we drop bombs of love!

Not.

[Onekawa-Nukanor]

Well my nations military is roughly 3,700,000 strong split in to

ONA:Onekawa-Nukanor Army
1,500,000 Personnel, active duty

ONN: Onekawa-Nukanor Navy
750,000 Personnel, Active Duty

ONAF: Onekawa-Nukanor Air Force
750,000 Personnel, Active Duty

ONM: Onekawa-Nukanor Militia (Offically Part of the Police force but Unoffically Military because although funded by Police Military use them)
500,000 personnel, Active Duty

ONMC: Onekawa-Nukanor Marine Corps
500,000 Personnel, Active Duty

ONSF: Onekawa-Nukanor Security Forces
200,000 Personnel, Active Duty

[Bazatia]

Our military is about 4 million soldiers which is a little less than 1% of our population, distributed among our Army, Navy, and Airforce. However, only about 1/3rd of those are active combat troops. so only about 1,300,000 active combat troops.

[Central Slavia]

So bazatia has a smaller army than central slavia ??

[Solarva]

So bazatia has a smaller army than central slavia ??

Now don't go attacking bigger nations for no reason.

[Gc1mak]

Decided to reduce the number, I have 7 millions troops now, more then enough for my budget to afford a very high-quality army.

[Auman]

The glorious stratocracy of Auman is a militant society with the most powerful armed forces in the nine universes... This 11 million man force, counting in support and logistics, is arguably the best trained in the Milky Way galaxy. Tremble in fear of my might, weaklings.

But seriously, the numbers are correct... Judging from the fact that it is less than percentage of my population with a grotesque budget which is dumped mostly into wages, training and force multipliers, my claim can be substantiated. The one failing is, naturally, that during war time, these numbers would be insufficient for large scale military operations. But it's just dandy at your run of the mill peace time missions, such as bombing the weak, invading developing nations for their resources and all the other good stuff that we're so familiar with in the 21st century.

It's the rule of cardboard, gentlemen. The smaller the numbers compared to your population, the more absurd your claims can be. So, new guys, there's no shame in having a military under a million... Under two hundred thousand is fine too.

[Gc1mak]

There is actually a limit on how-high quality your force could be while cost-effective when using real life products, when you upgrade to nationstate it could be significantly higher, but there is a limit which mean if you placed too much into training, your force will be not cost-effective. Imagine throwing 8 million into training every soldiers while your enemy brought a M1A2 ( Plus High-quality crew ) for that. Surely your force will be like special force, but not going to be useful when they have 1 tank vs 1 man.. So don't follow his advice is placing way too much training into your troops with limited equipments, of course, you can try maintaining a 3 guys to one tank ratio, but I can hardly imagine how you fight in mountain/swamp...

You might have noticed I don't use M1A2s when I mentioned having the best trained military force in the Milky Way galaxy, bro. There are two main stream tech bases in this game.

<_<

[Gc1mak]

Sorry, mixed tech-level, I thought you are MT. But to be frank, if you spend so many money on a single soldier in MT it will be extremely ineffective.

[Gc1mak]

I wonder what will the New Nicksyllvania troops are placed in a open desert fight against mine with a 10-1 ratio... Your troops will be outranged completely. How many troops you have anyway?

[The Regency of Stars]

I'm outgunned! 90 corps of 24k men in the army(similar ammounts in the navy and Air force). About half that is non-combat though. so ~1.08 million men(depending on how bad I mess up my math) Also not counting my Household infantry which make up three divisions(1 infantry, 1 mechanized, and one engineers).
So... a grand total of six million, five hundred eighty eight thousand in all branches sans reservists.

Of course, We only have about point nine percent of our population currently serving as we are not in any major wars, so this is more of a defense force.

Also of note is that most of the military budget is spent on research on weaponry, combat armour, and combat medicine, along with grants for any company or person able to make a better <insert equipment here>

[Gc1mak]

Actually, I issue CL8-40 rounds to my soldiers, which outrange your completely. Considering that my force is highly armoured and mechanized, I may win the day...

[Gc1mak]

Well, horrible fact of my military is that I include Heavy Infantry Fighting Vehicle with 50mm autocannon on company level. We have sniper and GPMG on fireteam level. So indeed if a fictional battle between we both happen with that ratio in a desert, your morale will lower when sniper keep on picking off your soldiers from far far away, I issue 8x sight so my average troops can aim that far. But that's not considering my much higher quality of troops allow them to do so easily ( Relatively ). So unless you have some very good Anti-Tank weapon, the HIFV in my company will be more then enough to rout your whole force
