Field Marshal Ignatius the Brave
The Briiscon Army is made up of mainly infantry units with a large calvary section, and a small amount of artillery. The standard battle formation of an infantry, calvary, and artillery legion is to bolster up the infantry and place the artillery directly behind. The artillery would bombard the enemy with cannon balls while the infantry would fire their muskits. To be extremely effecient, there is a large group of militia and technitions behind the infantry lines who load the muskits and pass them foward. As they are discharged they are passed back as loaded ones are passed foward making an extremely effecient front line.
The current Briiscon Army is made up of the following:
