The Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of Rubrum is a Highland infantry regiment based on Fort Susaya at Hamilton. The regiment is well-known and has been described as "One of the most elite regiments in the Rubrumian Army".

First formed in 1903, the regiment was initially called as the 93rd Highland Regiment of Rubrum. It fought in the trenches of the First Europan War, where it formed a part of the 4th Rubrumian Division, and later again during the Second Europan War. It was originally to be sent in Jutland-Gimli but instead, it was delegated to fight in Erebonia as part of the allied forces in the Scandinavian Campaign. During the war, the regiment often fought in the most thickest part of enemy lines, as a result, the Argylls became the 2nd most decorated unit after the Black Watch Regiment of Rubrum. It is also the first Rubrumian unit to receive the Emperor's Imperial Citation from Emperor Dreichels Reize Arnor. The unit had 21 Georgius Cross recipients, as well as 731 Distinguished Service Cross recipients.

Following EWII, the regiment remained stationed in Erebonia in the Thors Military Garrison, where high-ranking officers also served as professors to cadets in the Thors Military Academy. Ever since the 4th Division has been stationed in Erebonia as part of the Lucis Commonwealth Armies in Erebonia, certain members share various exchanges with its Erebonian counterpart, the Arseid and Sutherland Highlanders of Erebonia.
