=== Penal Service Department === | |||
Batalhons Peniels (Eng. Penal Battalions) is the Burgundian term for its collection of military penal units, supervised by the Penal Service Department of the Revenue Gaurd. Soldiers and civilian criminals are given the option to be sentenced to these units, in exchange for reduced sentences, time served at 1.5 times the normal rate. Military members are stripped of their rank and redesignated as ''volontes reluctee'' (Eng. recruited volunteers). These units are divided into ''sindicates'' (Eng. labor companies), one is usually assigned to each overseas province, colony, or crownland in Burgundie and provide additional labor on large infrastructure projects. These units are held to a very strict ''codex de comportament'' (Eng. code of conduct), which if breached, extends the sentence in the Batalhons Peniels considerably. | Batalhons Peniels (Eng.

===Revenue Guard Auxiliaries=== | |||
The Revenue Guard Auxiliaries ([[Burgoignesc language|Burg]]: le Galerien) are a force of over 80,000 volunteers from all over the [[Burgoignesc thalattocracy]] who train with and support the Revenue Guard's active duty and reserve officers to accomplish their mission.

They can volunteer to go on Revenue Guard missions free of charge but are tasked with menial work, hence their title Galerien ([[Aenglish language|Aeng]]: galley slave). | |||
