Force Construction
Invading Forces
Highly regimented and organized with field commanders having little flexibility on missions. The Winged Council is a board of military minds stationed in Polonia that is responsible for dictating overall strategy.
Individual Campaigns are led by a Field Marshal (typically a designated member of the Winged Council). Individual operations in the field are led by Marshals or Captains depending on their size and importance.
Occupying Forces
Military occupation of captured areas is typically performed by governors that control individual cities or territories. Governors of Riding territories report to a Governor General stationed in Greenmouth.
Occupying forces are typically divided into two groups:
- Elite Infantry Guards, responsible for high-profile duties, guarding important people, special missions. Elite infantry guard uniforms typical incorporate white helmets, capes, breastplates, or other items with the standard red and gold uniforms.
- Regulars, responsible for patrols, guards, watches, and standard operations.
