Army

The Caldari State is a well-trained and disipled army which is able to combat anything in any envioment which is required. Their primary weaponry include the DC-6 Blaster Rifles and they will used their other gizmos and gagets given to them to stop the enemy at all costs. They are supported by all-terrain walkers, combat walkers (like the Goliath) and advanced tanks (The Leviathan Battle Tank). Several other divisions of the Caldari Army which include the Seatroopers, the Snowtroopers, the DesertCorps and the Caldarian Legionaires. Recently, the Ministry of War created the Terminator Space Marines, gentically-modified soldiers, perfect soldiers for any condition. At the beginning of the Democratic Plutocracy, the Caldari Ministry of War created a multi-billion soldier organization called the Corporate Guard who's job is to simply fight and die.

The Caldari Legionaries

The Caldarian Legionaries are the elite infantry division who act as the State's perfectly trained Stormtroopers.

Legionnaires are put into legions (which is the largest formation) of 20,000 men, Cohorts of 2000 men, Maniples of 250 men and the smallest group of 100 men as a Century. The Legions also control mighty combat walkers and tanks. Providing reconnaissance and advanced scouting are the quick-footed and bird-legged Sentinels, which also engage in guerilla warfare to raid enemy positions. The Goliath Combat Walker and the Invader and Leviathan Battle Tanks provide support to the already deadly legionaries. These vehicles of war will ground the enemy down to the dirt.

Raata I first established them during his reign as the Caldarian Emperor back many, many years ago and they have been the symbol of Caldari might and power ever since. The legionnaires can be found on most worlds and maintain law and order on behalf of the Directorate of Police, their Commissars (military advisors) and the President himself. The Legionnaires have been used heavily in the last several decades since the formation of the CEP and they are one of two forces responsible for the large expansion of the State since the fall of the Raata Empire.

Caldarian Legionnaires are equipped with DC-6 and DC-15 Blaster Rifles as well as other types of rifles including the DK-1 Pulse Laser Rifle. Their armor is the most advanced in the State, as it has been researched and manufactured privately by Cirelere Laboratories, under contract with the Ministry of War. The name of this battle armor is AAE suits, better known as Advanced All-Environment Battlesuits. These suits can defend soldiers from chemical and biological agents, radioactive fallout particles, battlefield contaminants and several blaster shots.

The Legionnaires follow several values including for the Defense of the State, its Professionalism and Discipline. The Legionnaire’s goal is to defend the existence of the State, its independence and the security of the citizens and residents of the state. The State servicemen will acquire the professional knowledge and skills required to perform their tasks, and will implement them while striving continuously to perfect their personal and collective achievements. Discipline will always been enforced, no order will be ignored or questioned; all orders are to be carried out to the letter.

The Sandtroopers

Sandtroopers are trained and equipped to survive in the harsh environment of desert like planets. They are capable of flying 74-Z Military Speeder Bikes. And like the legionaires, they are totally loyal to the State. These troopers are selected from the ranks of exceptionally motivated, fearless and talented legionaires. However, these troopers either have shown an aptitude or already have training in desert survival, camouflage, small-unit tactics and tracking. Of necessity, Sandtroopers are accustomed to operating with a greater deal of autonomy than standard legion units. While they do check with their superiors often, Sandtroopers have no qualms about making snap decisions when situations warrant.

Sandtroopers are armed with standard issued DC-6 and DC-15 Blaster Rifles.

The Snowtroopers

Snowtroopers are efficient, quick and lethal. These troops have proven to be one of the most successful specialized legion units, largely due to their advanced suits which they employ. The perfect hiding places for terrorist outposts, smuggler ports and pirate coves are the polar regions of most worlds which remain frozen, inaccessible wastelands. The State's answer to the situation was the creation of Snowtrooper, trained and equipped to operate in those conditions. There is no stealth involved in Snowtrooper combat tactics. They hit the planet fast and hard, crushing opposition quickly and completely.

Snowtroopers wear the typical black, two-piece temperature control glove worn by other legionaires. Over that, they wear an airtight fabric oversuit for additional protection from the cold. To facilitate for breathing in extremely cold or dangerous atmospheres, a breather hood envelops the Snowtrooper's faceplate and feeds into the suit liner. It surrounds the breath heater to allow the device to heat a larger area around the trooper's face. The breath heater is a component of the trooper's mask which heats the air around the trooper. The heater ensures that the trooper cannot inhale extremely cold air which may inadvertently freeze-dry the lungs.

Snowtroopers are comfortable travelling in AT-ATs and other State transports, although they can travel long distances on foot. They work in tandem with AT-ATs, as those vehicles are ideally suited for the extreme temperatures and icy terrain where Snowtroopers are deployed. These troopers are self-sufficient mobile combat elements. Their backpacks and suit systems keep them warm and exceptionally mobile for environments of ice and snow. Snowtroopers are also equiped with the same weapons as the Sandtroopers and the standard legionaire.

The Seatroopers

Seatroopers are another special unit of legionaries that have been established to operate below the seas of the many worlds that span throughout the State. Seatroopers can be quickly deployed by dropships, but they are often assigned to aquatic garrisons where they can enjoy the support of a fully loaded base and water craft. Seatroopers can be deployed along with their equipment and Waveskimmers from an orbiting State vessel using twin-pod paracapsules. To leave the paracapsules once on the planet's surface, the troopers must cut their way out to get to their equipment, so they can ultimately complete their assigned mission. Seatroopers are issued mission-approiate weaponry as well as the DC-15 Blaster Rifle.

The Terminator Space Marines

Recently created by the Caldari Secert Service and the Ministry of War and forged in the fiery furnace of war, the Terminators are the pinacle of the State's forces and genetics technology. Though relatively few in number at the present moment, the Terminators fight with fury at the front lines of State's bloody battles against its enemies.

The superiority of the Terminator is the result of numerous genetic modifications, psycho-conditioning, rigorous physical training and unquestioning faith. A single Terminator is a formidable fighter, but when he fights with a thousand of his brethren (in organizations commonly referred to as chapters) they form a steely weapon of righteousness -- the State's living, breathing swords of destruction, serving its will and protecting its people throughout the State. They will not object their orders and will carry them to the letter like the standard Legionaries.

Terminators are armed with custom DC-16 Plasma Blaster Rifles as well as Dk-9 Blaster Assault Rifles which cut though enemies like butter. Terminators also carry mission-specific equipment ontop of his standard gear.

Terminators have been rigoriously trained to perform any task that is of the utmost importance. For example, these include pliots, spies and other discert and hidden tasks that need professionalism and complete loyality to the State.

Caldari Space Navy

The Caldari Navy is the one of the bigger parts of the armed forces. They have more battleships than any other fleet and the average age of the Caldari ships is considerably less. This is because the Caldari are constantly replacing their oldest ships with newer ones, with better hi-tech equipment. The strategic doctrine of the Caldari Navy is simple: to be able to defeat any other navy in the world. Most experts believe it is. Several capital ships used by the Caldari State included the Leviathan-Class Titan,the Dominator-Class Dreadnaught, the Titan-Class Destroyer and the Pluto-Class Battleship. The StarfighterCorps and Tactical/Intellegence are two other branches of the Navy.

Caldari Surface Navy

The Caldari Surface Navy (CSSN) has not seen much improvement as the Caldari Space Navy, but they still have more battleships than other Imperial fleets but the ships also have a shorter lifespan, since the Admirality continually replace their older ships with more advanced versions.

At the moment, the CSSN are mainly made up of Cowardly naval ships, but the Admiralrity hope that the Ministry can allot some funding into the possiblity of a newly-developed ship that can improve and expand Caldari sphere of influence on the high seas.

Caldari Secert Service

The Caldari Secert Service is the Intellegence arm of the Ministry of War because they have spies everywhere and have eyes and ears in most nation's internal archives. They are also very elusive and they are the masters of concelment and spying. The CSS can be concidered the Caldari State's secert police, who oppress and terimnate anyone who speaks openly against the State or the Board of Directors. The CSS also are masters of the Mind Control Technology and they are very secertive in terms of explaining how it works and how its built.

The Caldari Secert Service also has several smaller branches, which make up the major secert police in the Caldari State, however these cannot be released. Few people see ether group as they work in the shadows and those who have, have not been seen again.

The Home Guard and Civil Protection

The Home Guard is responsible for protecting the borders of the State from terrorism and other external threats. They are also connected to the Directorate of Police and their job is pretty much the border patrol as well as a first defense for the State if it was invaded.

Civil Protection, referred to in brief as CPs, and also commonly known as Metro Cops, police inner-city areas and keep citizens in line through the use of intimidation and physical force - ranging from random beatings, questioning and "inspections," to outright murder. They are controlled by the Directorate of Police and are found more in the special colonies of Caldarian Gevon as well as Caldarian Sushiia and Saba.
