This article deals with the armed forces of the different nations on Eden-IV. Some of these may have individual articles.


Cormerra Army

Germanistan Army

  • Nation: Republic of Germanistan
  • Strength: 1.2 Million

The Germanistan army was finally cheated about fate of Eisen and accepted Vedess Akshar Chander as top commander.

Jaeger

Storm Trooper

Jump Trooper

  • Equipment: Rocket Pack, Claws

A Germanistan soldier using a rocket pack that allows them to jump distances of several hundred meters in vertical or horizontal and glide for about 1.2 km. These soldiers are solely stationed on the Heligardia floating fortress and are designated for air-to-air combat should any enemy (Germanistan assumes this enemy to be Texana) become capable of challenging the floating fortress with a similar airborne weapon. They are also sometimes used to wreak havoc on cities from above. They do not carry heavy weaponry, but are equipped with claw gloves for climbiing up on an enemy airship's walls, which they can also use as weapons, and can use their rocket packs to launch streams of flames at a target. In this way, they make excellent shock troops against cities that are otherwise well defended against ground attacks (Siege warfare ocasionally still occurs on Eden-IV) by setting buildings ablaze and sabotage important installations. They are not thought for prolongued engagement, however.

Final Force

  • Nation: Organization HOUSE
  • Strenght: 300

Romeran Republican Voluntary Armed Forces

  • Nation: Armed Republic of Romera
  • Strength: 1,200 (peak at 2137), 0 (now, official)

The RRVAF was a military organisation that served as the national army of Romera. Soldiers joined on voluntary bases. Although magnificent in some tactics, the army overall lacked professionality. It was dissolved after Germanistan's occupation of the country. Its combatants, however, play significant roles in the countless resistance groups that have sprung up in the country, so it is actually wrong to say the RRVAF stopped existing.

Royal Guard

The Royal Guard is the national army of the Litovanian dukedom. It is of little military value and mostly used for ceremonial purposes. Its conscripts use simple rifles and no armor. When Germanistan invaded the country, the few corps of the Royal Guard that actually fought, were beaten easily by the Germanistan Army.

Sothfarian Voluntary Armed Forces

  • Nation: Magic Queendom of Sothfar
  • Strenght: 400,000 (peak), 0 (now)

The SVAF was founded to defend Sothfar during the Psion War. It had little actual military power and consisted mostly of civilian settlers who formed local or regional militias to fight against the Mageran troops.
