The Arcer Army is made up of three components to form the 'total force.' The Regular Army, also known as the regular forces or standing army, form the full-time, professional soldiers serving contract periods from four to twenty-five years. This is augmented by a pair of reserve components, often referred to as the 'territorial force' or 'militia,' references to Arcerion's colonial roots and Carnish heritage. Reserve forces train several times a month and have a scaled readiness system wherein one reserve brigade per governorate is assigned a 'parent' Regular Army brigade to assist with its training and administration, and during this time Regular Army personnel receive Reservists for short contracts of a few months in length to increase training opportunities or provide experience. At the end of this cycle, the Reserve Brigades augment their Regular Army counterparts with several 'stand-by' companies, which are on a short call-up notice of anywhere from a few hours to a few days. | The Arcer Army is made up of three components to form the 'total force.'
