The Crusader Army is legendary for its military success, much of which is due to its high degree of standardization. Alykinder’s reformation of the Tokish army in 1750 modernized the Crusader Army in every aspect, from tactics and fundamental strategies, to logistical operations and equipment. Though the Crusader Army includes rhyflers of many nations, they all follow the Crusader plan. Infantry use squad- and section-level tactics under the direction of a skillful and veteran corps of Yawdryls and Milwers. Leadership by the NCO is a hallmark of the Crusader light infantry. These squads use the long-range and powerful Ryshi heavy rifle to fix targets at long distance, and then close to use the semi-automatic Bogen combat rifle in the assault.
The standard issue Crusader uniform has changed very little in almost 40 years. Made of simple but hard-wearing fabric and robustly constructed, the helmet and green jacket cut have remained constant, as has the Tokish pattern web gear. Variation in uniform is primarily regional and by branch. Common modifications are short pants and demi-boots in tropical and desert climates, cold weather gear and kilts among the north-easterners.
