Extremely impressive, looks to be well thought out. Tell me, what did you base this on (If anything)? Some of it looks similar to the old Roman army structure, but thats just a guess.

Read the first line of the thread :)

It is warped, because the Roman Armies dealth with a few tens of thousands of men, mine deals with a few million, so unles I wanted to list 500+ legions, I am using Ueber-Legions. They also didn't have tanks, APCs, et cetera.

if i could be bothered i would look up my btech books and see how this comapres to the marian hegemony from battel tech (a vaguely roman organised future tech nation but remove the battlemechs and it would fit most modern setups).


But anyway, major cool beans m8 :)
