7 Rifle Brigade is Arcerion's premier light infantry formation. It consists of mostly light and motorised infantry formations, although the Arcer Army makes few distinctions between motorised and mechanized troops, as they both doctrinally use LAVs, only in their employment are they different. Based centrally around the Royal Easthampton Borderers (REB), Arcerion Fusilier Regiment (AFR), and the [[Royal Moorden Regiment]] (RMR). Mechanized forces in the brigade are supplemented with lighter reconnaissance and anti-tank missile formations from the Kurst Lancer Regiment (KLR). | 7 Rifle Brigade is Arcerion's premier light infantry formation.

The Brigade is heavily invested into light infantry operations, including mountaineering, air assault, pathfinding, long-range reconnaissance, and a limited maritime mission training. The Brigade itself was historically part of 1 Rifle Brigade, however was detached and became its own independent formation in the 1960s with an increased emphasis on light infantry operations due to the ongoing border clashes with Washakara and Telokona requiring a more high-readiness conventional force to be prepared to respond quickly to border clashes or be deployed abroad. The Easthampton Garrison also regularly hosts the Arcerion Patrolling Competition, wherein international teams compete in a series of soldiers skills, hosted and ran by 7 Brigade, to increase training and cooperation. | ||
7 Rifle participated in the Varshan conflict, serving as one of the main units during the Battle of Anzo, where it suffered light casualties during the fighting in built-up suburbs of the city. However, the unit's light posture allowed it to retain the flexibility to close with and engage regular and irregular Varshani troops. During the Battle for the al-Mayaar Hospital, 7 Brigade distinguished itself by avoiding unnecessary collateral damage to civilian infrastructure while still fixing the elements of the Varshani 41st Infantry Corps in place where they were destroyed by the combined efforts of 5v and 6 Mechanized Brigades. | 7 Rifle participated in the Varshan conflict, serving as one of the main units during the Battle of Anzo, where it suffered light casualties during the fighting in built-up suburbs of the city.

9 Rifle participated in the Final War of the Deluge, where it wa sone of the primary combat formations for Arcerion during the Battle of Anzo. 9 Rifle was the formation that seized Anzo International Airport, with 1st Battalion, Norham Foot Grenadiers being engaged in the heavy fighting around the International Terminal against regular and irregular Varshani forces. 9 Rifle at this time had only been fully operational for just over a decade, and still had a significant amount of reservists within its ranks, and despite assessments that it may not be suitable for high-intensity fighting in built up areas (FIBUA), it conducted itself well, particularly with the subterranean fighting in subway tunnels and the other tunnel systems dug by Varshani insurgents. 9 Brigade participated in the mopping up operations South-East of Anzo in the farm country there, and was a key component to the destruction of the Varshani 4th Army. | 9 Rifle participated in the Final War of the Deluge, where it wa sone of the primary combat formations for Arcerion during the Battle of Anzo. 9 Rifle was the formation that seized Anzo International Airport, with 1st Battalion, Norham Foot Grenadiers being engaged in the heavy fighting around the International Terminal against regular and irregular Varshani forces. 9 Rifle at this time had only been fully operational for just over a decade, and still had a significant amount of reservists within its ranks, and despite assessments that it may not be suitable for high-intensity fighting in built up areas (FIBUA), it conducted itself well, particularly with the subterranean fighting in subway tunnels and the other tunnel systems dug by Varshani insurgents. 9 Brigade participated in the mopping up operations South-East of Anzo in the farm country there, and was a key component to the destruction of the Varshani 4th Army. | ||
