Revision as of 16:57, 11 April 2021

The Ortalyk military is made up of 18 regular divisions and one special division dubbed The Tsar's Guard. The latter are hand picked soldiers from the other provincial regiments. Provincial divisions are recruited and organized by that province's Boyar, though it is rare for the Boyar to be part of the division. Each division not led by the Boyar is commanded by soldier of the rank of general.

Military organization can vary from one division to another depending on a number of factors from recruitment and logistics, to terrain and the nature of the enemy. Flying enemies may require special tactics, while tunneling enemies require another. The bulk of most regiments are made up of infantry, followed in numbers by crossbowmen, cavalry, engineers, quartermasters, signallers and special forces. The latter often made up of spellcasters and other adventurer classes.

The Tsar's Guard is in contrast, low on infantry, while rich in crossbow and cavalry. This special division is also host to some very powerful spellcasters and other adventure classes with the Tsar Batil Zhurek having often taking to the battlefield himself.
