2 Training Commands Training Training Formations Activities INTRODUCTION The age of military themed guilds have not passed. They will always remain. However, the quality of these have decreased by time. Savage and untidy militias rise and fall as if it was a weekly thing. Unloyal soldiers and their CO s move from one place to another. More and more recruits are loyal to their CO s and not the cause. A united military presence is needed to create a safe and secure military age. Sarovian Map This is the map of New Sarovia. All soldiers and officers are expected to understand, know and memorize the New Sarovian map. His Grace, King Carolus Vasa King Carolus Vasa is the ruler of the New Sarovian Kingdom. The King, like all Sarovian monarchs before him, has a full royal title which is the following: King Carolus Vasa, by the Grace of Stefan, King of Sarovia, the Makos, Zors and Vasas, Grand Prince of Reuss, and Duke of Syrixia. The King was born on the 12th of June as the son of Emperor Constantine V and Empress Tsu. The young King was robbed of his throne when his father was defeated at Poltava and the empire fell. Now, he has his army up to full speed ready to defeat the foreign invaders that denied his empire it s rightful place. Sarovian Appearance New Sarovia envisions all of these. The New Sarovian Empire (NSE), commonly known as New Sarovia (NS) or Sarovia, would be a constitutional monarchy composed of 5 states, a federal monarchy, and two levels of federal government. Owning the entire Graalian map over a quick and decisive series of wars and

3 victories, the New Sarovian Empire is the game s second largest nation guild by military strength, and the second most populous. The capital is Autumnwood, and the largest city is Vurgos. The Empire consisted of 23 military divisions throughout it s life - amassing over 500 enlisted men and women of all ethnicities and backgrounds. The New Sarovian Empire believes in freedom of political speech and helping as many people as physically possible. The New Sarovian Empire s goal is to make a fully functioning nation inside of Graal - complete with a police and military force, alongside a fully functioning economy and society to make the lives of Graalians better.

EASY: Fortify a railroad. MODERATE: Fortify a small town. HARD: Fortify all of the main city. Invasion An invasion is like the Assault, but you will be occupying the area for awhile. This consists of at least one Assault type, one Blockade, Marching, and Breaching. EASY: Invade a small town. MODERATE: Invade a sector. HARD: Invade a real enemy.

Send everyone to the bridge or line them up in a guild house or house. The training officer will instruct them to do things related to normal training (not farming.)

EASY: Twenty orders, each in 30 seconds time. MODERATE: Thirty orders, each in 30 seconds time. HARD: Twenty orders, each in 15 seconds time. Bayonet Charge A Bayonet Charge is a medium difficulty training. It s not about fighting prowess or smarts, but rather loyalty and discipline.

10 Riot Stopping is an occasional training. If a riot is seen, you will direct your men to stop the riot.
