Creature:Tragnon/Military Rankings

Tragnon military rankings
While we have infantry division there, it is not enough. Tragnon army is not only about soldiers. Maybe they are the backbone of the Tragnon army(can you imagine the army without soldiers), but if they weren't commanded, it will result to the chaos and terrible weakness of the army. Tragnon army is also divided to many units and armies. There you will find a description of every military ranking what a Tragnon can achieve, from the common sappers, to the most elite colonels and the grand general.

The General Prime
The General Prime is the Tragnon King. The King of the all Tragnons also lead and command the whole army, as a whole unit, and lower officers command more minor things, but still very important. He leads the army to every battle, where sitting in his war tent, on the platform pulled by many Donkallons. All three colonels must obey him, but they can make more minor army movements and tactiques, to prevent the mistakes what the general himself can achieve. But, the general Prime has less influence on the battlefield, than his three colonels together, because he is mostly only representative. Major military power is controlled by the lower officers.

The Colonel
The Colonel is the highest possible military rank to achieve, if you are not a Tragnon royal heir. Every of them control a legion of the army(every legion has 60.000 soldiers), and together they are almost undefeatable. Colonels command their legions straightly to the battle, while the legions are further divided to Grand cohorts, cohorts, centuries and decadias. There are three of them, Iocantrus Athes, Mathradetus Scyllus and Hydrellan Phantetrittus. They are one of the most respected Tragnons, as they act as secondary advisors of the king.

The Archuke
The Archdukes of army are chosen every Heptoitus, from the boldest lieutenants. Every legion is divided to five grand cohorts, every one led by the Archduke. Every of them command 12.000 soldiers, and they aren't specialised, so everyone commands a Grand Cohort consisting of many soldier types, not only from one or two. They are highly respected, and every of them wears extremely expensive uniform, with the golden and silver ornaments.

Lieutenant
The Lieutenants are the most known officers of the army. Every of them command a cohort counting 1200 soldiers. They are often specialised - one of them commands artilerry, another one auxilias, cavalry, archers, and ships. There are 150 lieutenants, ten of them for every Grand cohort. The Archduke is chosen every Heptoitus from them. Most of Lieutenants come from upper classes, but exceptions can be found.

Centurion
Centurions are the lowest officers of the army. They command only small armies, the centuries, every consisting of only one type of soldiers. There are 1500 of them, and every commander can become one, when he has military and tactic talent, and is enough bold and courageous to become the centurion. Centurions are armed by the rifles too, making them the strongest soldiers in their unit.

Commander
The military commanders are often the elite soldiers, who command the less trained and newer ones. They are usually not very experienced, and must obey the centurions. One commander, for example, can command the unit with 10 soldiers, train them, and teachs them how to better fight, and trains them how to be better soldier straightly in the battlefield. They also work in the training centers, as a trainers.

Soldier Elite
All elite soldiers are in this class. They are usually much better paid as a normal soldiers, and are equipped by more efficient weapons. Elite soldiers don't command anyone, when in the units, but acts as the primary frontal Tragnon attack force. They are extremely disciplined and trained, and their abilities to kill and defend themselves are much more advanced than the ones of another soldiers.

Soldier Basic
The basic soldiers make the largest part of the whole army. They are armed by the maces, crossbows, cannons, hand guns and arquebuses, and Tragnon army can't exist without them. There are about 80.000 of them, in many different types and specialisations.

Soldier Auxilia/sapper
The Auxiliary soldiers are the ones who are not well trained, actually, and are usually from lower social classes. But, they are trained anyways, about five years. If the Tragnon Kingdom will be attacked, almost every adult male Tragnon can fight, because they all have short military training. Their army could be larger than the Shiarchon one, but without the desired experience and weaponry. But still better than many other armies. They build also forts and bridges, and are one of the most important soldiers in the whole army.
