Guskarls
The Guskarls are the Elite Fighters of Galadonn, nicknamed "The Kings Legion" they act as bodyguards and as the vanguard in armies. Their name "Guskarl" comes from the famous Gus the Great, he recieved this honour for his exceding service to Galadonn and because of his popularity with the people. In battle they are usually positioned on the very front lines and are the first troops to enter combat. The Guskarls were formulated on 12/09/2022.

Galadonnian Soldier
The main profesional army of Galadonn, they consist of Decent Fighters and are the backbone of the Galadonnian army. They are used in wars, raids and guarding events. Their usual battle position is in the centre of the army ready to aid the Guskarls after they deal the first blow. They have existed since the creation of Galadonn.

Levymen
The Levymen are peasants, bad fighters and volunteers that make up the unprofesional army, they have zero training and are used for wars and raids. Their usual battle position is on the flanks and the back to protect from suprise attacks. They can do little actual damage but are usefull for holding the line and bolstering the numbers of the army.

Equipment
GuskarlsThe Guskarls have a "Abnars Steel" (the very best steel in Galadonn said to be blessed by the Abnar Himself) helmet which has the Watchers Eye engraved on the forehead, it also has a face shield which is pulled down in battle. Their boots are leather dyed blue with iron plating sewed into it, they need it to be waterproof because of the swamps in the west of Galadonn. Their torso and arms are have a silk shirt/trousers, regular steel chainmail and "Abnars Steel" armour plating. Their weapons are custom made for each fighter dependant on their preference. The armour is bejeweled to show of the richess they earn from fighting (This means you can tell how veteran they are by how many jewels they have on their armour).

The Galadonnian Airforce has the same equipment but the crown instead of the Watchers Eye and a magic trident that propells them through water and air.

Galadonnian Soldier
Their helmets cover their heads and ears but leave the face exposed for more visablity and are made from standard steel. Their boots are blue to show allegance to Galadonn and made of leather but with no armour. Their torso and arms are protected by a leather tunic, chainmail armour and armour plating on their torso and shield arm, they have it on one arm only to allow better mobility for the swing of the sword. The soldiers engrave each battle they attend onto their shoulder plate to show respect to every man that died there.

Levymen
The Levymen have cheap bronze or copper helmets if any at all, most have a leather cap instead. Their boots are Civilian with wood stitched to the bottom and extra leather sewn on. their torso and arms are protected by regular clothes, chainmail/extra leather and blacksmith gloves and aprons. Their weapons are usually a bit of wood as a shield and farm tools at weapons, axes, hoes, pickaxes and hammers. To recognise them they are given a banner which they nail to their shield of attatched to their back.

Since there is no actual equipment given or required this is a complete generalisation.
