The Commonwealth Army is the terrestrial arm of the Arthurista's military. It is a relatively small standing army with 118,000 peacetime personnel, which may be augmented in wartime with part-time volunteers drawn from the Territorial Command.
In addition to its main order of battle, the Commonwealth Army's training command has two special 'Opposing Force' units - the 33rd Guards Motor Rifle Regiment and the 5th Airlanding Regiment, which simulate the 'archetypical' heavy combined arms and airborne formation from the largest hostile powers.
