The Imperial Army (Latin Excertius Imperialis), more commonly known as the Latin Army (Excertius Latinum) is the land component of the Latin Armed Forces. It is the largest and oldest component of the Latin Armed Forces, as it encompasses a total of roughly 225,000 military personnel, x of which are active troops. The Latin Army is commanded by the commander-in-chief or Imperator is Emperor Constantine XX of Latium.


History

Doctrine, Organisation and Personnel Policies

As of the 2010's, the Latin Empire does not face a conventional land threat. As such, its missions are defined, in order of importance, as:

1. The reinforcement of fellow Belisarian Community states in the event of external aggression.

2. Limited military intervention or peacekeeping operations on a global scale beyond the Belisarian continent.

3. Providing assistance to the Civil Guards or the Praetorians in countering internal threats to the state.

The Empire's ground forces are thus configured and optimised to be capable of carrying out these duties. It is partially staffed through the conscription of a randomly-selected portion of each years' 18-year old age class of resident male citizens, who do not possess valid higher education deferments. Officers and senior NCO's are long service professionals.

Higher Organisation

The organisation chart of the 3rd Mechanised Division, Latin Army, comprised of the VII Armoured Legion, VIII Mechanised Infantry Legion and IX Mechanised Infantry Legion and support elements.

The main forces of the Imperial Army is organised as 21 Legiones of combat troops, supported by a number Alae which perform combat support functions. These forces are grouped into seven divisions.

The two Armoured Divisions (Divisio Cataphractarius) are the Imperial Army's heavy forces. They are optimised for a conventional warfare scenario on the Belisarian continent in support of Latium's BC neighbours. The Armoured Divisions consist of two Armoured Legions (Legio Cataphractius), an Armoured Infantry Legion (Legio Pedites Loricatorum), an Artillery Ala (Alae Tormentorum), a Combat Sustainment Ala (Ala Sustentationem) and other supporting elements.

The four Mechanised Divisions are a more versatile force. They each contain one Armoured Legion and one Armoured Infantry Legion optimised for conventional warfare, as well as the other auxiliary units of an Armoured Division. Until 2010, Mechanised Divisions possessed a second Armoured Infantry Legion. However, in recent years, their second Armoured Infantry Legions have been replaced by a Motorised Legion (Legio Rapidus), equipped with 8-wheeled combat vehicles of a common family.

The Rapid Intervention Division (Divisio Intreventus Rapidus) is intended as a strategically mobile rapid reaction force for peacekeeping and other operations beyond Belisaria. It consists of three elite units, the Airborne Legion (Legio Pedite Aerium), the Mountain Infantry Legion (Legio Pedite Montem) and the Marine Infantry Legion (Legio Pedite Marinus). The latter is administratively part of the Imperial Navy, but grouped under the RID for operational purposes.

The six heavy divisions are grouped into two army corps, the I and II Corps. The Rapid Reaction Division is not subordinated to a Corps HQ and functions as a general staff reserve.

Legiones and Alae

A Legion is a combined arms combat group of between 4,500-4,800 personnel, the equivalent of a brigade in most armies. They are the primary operational units of the Imperial Army. A Legion possesses sufficient logistics assets to enable it sustain itself in independent operations for up to 72 hours.

An Armoured or Armoured Infantry Legion possesses a balanced mix of main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, self-propelled howitzers and other assets. They are heavy combat units intended for conventional warfare. The former is suitable for open terrain. The latter, which contains a higher proportion of infantry, is more optimised for mixed terrain in which force versatility is important.

A Motorised Legion (Legio Rapidus) consists of infantry cohorts mounted in eight-wheeled VCC-3 Sagita vehicles and its variants. Compared to conventional mechanised forces, these are designed for rapid movement along motorways in regions with well-developed infrastructure and is capable of carrying out a wide-variety of military operations of different intensities, from assistance to civil power to combat against sophisticated opposition.

The Marine Infantry Legion (Legio XII Pedite Marinus) is trained in Amphibious warfare, although on land they operate as mechanised infantry, transported in the amphibious VCC-4 Neptunus wheeled APC, which replaced the tracked AAV in around 2012.

The Airborne Legion (Legio X Pedite Aerium) is an elite light infantry formation which can deploy by parachute or Air assault helicopter. Most of the Imperial Army's special forces personnel originate from this unit.

The Mountain Infantry Legion (Legio XI Pedite Montem) receives training in high altitude and cold weather operations.

Aside from Legions, the Imperial Army also possesses a large number of Alae, some of which come under the command of one of the four divisions, others are independent. They are legion-sized groupings of forces not intended to enter direct combat, such as artillery, engineers, signal troops, helicopters, logistical support and so forth. The Alae have been described as the direct descendant of historical Auxilia regiments.

Cohors and Centuriae

Legions are constituted by Cohorts, the equivalent of battalions in most armies, and Centuries, the equivalent of companies. A Cohort of combat troops may consist of roughly 600-700 personnel, whereas the strength of a Century may be between 100-150.

An Armoured Cohort (Cohors Cataphractarius) consists of some 58 tanks, divided into four Centuries of 14, with two tanks allocated to the Cohort HQ. Each Armoured Century consists of two headquarters tanks and three four-tank platoons (Turma, pl Turmae).

An Armoured Infantry Cohort (Cohors Pedites Loricatorum) consists of three Armoured Infantry Centuries and one Combat Support Century. The former is divided into three platoons, each of four infantry fighting vehicles and two headquarters vehicles. The latter contains the Cohort's heavy weapons, including an anti-tank Century, a reconnaissance Century (including a sniper team), an automatic grenade launcher Century and a self-propelled mortar Century.

An Artillery Cohort (Cohors Tormentaria) usually consists of 24 artillery pieces in three batteries, a fire direction centre and a forward observer group. Usually, an observer party is allocated to each combat Cohort in the Legion.

A Legate would usually cross-attach the constituent elements of his combat Cohorts, and reinforce them with a portion of the Legion's combat support elements, such that it can operate independently as a battalion-sized 'Combat Group' (Coetus Pugnat). For instance, the headquarters of an Armoured Infantry Combat Group may have under its command an Armoured Century of 14 tanks, two Armoured Infantry Centuries, a Combat Support Century, an Engineer Century and the dedicated support of an artillery battery.

Small units organisation

The infantry Turma consists of a command team of three personnel, as well as three squads (Contubernium), which are the smallest combat units in the Imperial Army. A Contubernium is commanded by a non-commissioned officer (Decanus). An Armoured Infantry Cotubernium consists of nine men, commanded by a squad leader and divided into two fireteams of four, each of which is equipped with at least one machine-gun and one under-barrel grenade launcher. It is intended to work in close conjunction with its infantry fighting vehicle, which provides the squad's source of mobility and most of its firepower.

A rifle squad is also equipped with at least one designated marksman rifle, at least two disposable anti-tank weapons, as well as 2-4 Night vision device or clip-on infra-red weapons sights.

Special Forces

The Commando Cohortis "Arcanii" is the Imperial Army's special forces unit. Configured similar to "Rangers" units in other armies, the Arcanii is a Cohort of four Centuries a trained and equipped for parachute-insertion, unconventional warfare, direct action and special reconnaissance, including 'black operations'. It can act independently, or in close conjunction with other Imperial special forces units such as the Praetorians' Equites Singulares Augusti or the Imperial Navy's Combat Frogmen, as well as Imperial Intelligence in a given operation.
