During the [[First Great War]], the grouping and localized recruiting meant that when Regiments took significant casualties, it was felt more deeply in specific communities as the fighting men that died were all concentrated in this area. This is notable from the Easthampton Regiment, where an entire battalion was lost, and the community was devastated due to the loss of several hundred fathers, sons and family members. The opposite argument to this is the involvement Regiments have in their communities, with parades, local engagements, youth programs, and regimental fundraisers and charity events making them keystone parts of the communities they are garrisoned in. | During the [[First Great War]], the grouping and localized recruiting meant that when Regiments took significant casualties, it was felt more deeply in specific communities as the fighting men that died were all concentrated in this area.

The Arcer Army is entirely based around regiments and Corps. However this can be confusing as the term ''regiment'' can refer to multiple different sizes or types of organizations. It can mean an administrative grouping of disparate subunits with a shared identity (ie. Royal Regiment of Arcerion Horse Artillery), or a tactical unit. In general, Arcer regiments are administrative groupings of tactical formations (usually battalion-strength), and the Regimental headquarters serves in a staff, professional development training, and support role whereas the Brigades maintain operational and tactical control of their military training. | |||
