Colonial Armed Forces
The Colonial Army is truly a terrifying war machine. With the advanced technology and Genetic Supersoldiers of the Kroenen Followers and the massive numbers and quick strike troops of the Helghan Colonial Force almost nothing can stop the army once it begins an attack.

Ground Forces
The Colonial Army is organise into Legions. Each Legion has 10000 soldiers,including tank drivers but not including the service personnel etc... Each Legion is commanded by a seperate General and all Generals are given their orders from the Lord-Marshal Cetanu Guan'thwei. Two legions are composed of only 4000 soldiers, and almost no armoured vehicles. However, every one of these soldiers is from the Kroenen Followers nation and is a Rauben supersoldier. The numbers shown here do not include non-combat personnel such as technicians. Each Legion is also given a name describing its tactics and composition. (E.g The Locusts use huge numbers of infantry while the Armoured Fists use large numbers of tanks. Only the First 6 Legions have specialised composition, and names, as each of the Generals is of High-Marshall Rank (Except Grievous and Daschande who are Kroenen Followers and so their Legions will always be as they want them to be, depending on each's prefered tactics). After this, each Legion is standardised and nameless. So to save space I will show the composition of the VII Legion then the number of legions after that. There is a total of 50 Legions

Air Cavalry Organisation
There is a total of 25 Air Cavalry detachments. The Air Cavalry is used to support ground forces and provide cover for Dropship landings. Unlike the Legions, no detachment is specialised, as all the Commanders are below the Generals, even Generals of normal Legions(Field-Marshall Rank) and recieve their orders directly from the General they are attached to. Detachments are attached to Legins as needed and are often split between several Legion (as there is 50 Legions and only 25 Air Cavalry Detachments). Again the numbers here are non-inclusive of non-combat personnel., and each Detachment has a total of 2000 Combat personnel.
