6 Mechanized regularly rotates to the Dalfearn Garrison to participate in force-on-force exercises, and it is during these exercises it continues to reinforce its reputation in the Arcer Army for aggressive, decentralized armoured combat teams. Small marauding groups of armoured reconnaissance and anti-tank fighting vehicles hunt down large groups of tanks and softer support vehicles, which led to the adoption of wolves/wolfpacks as the Brigade emblem. During the Final War of the Deluge, and specifically Operation Pullman, 6 Mechanized Brigade itself screened against an entire Varshani Corps, and based on after-action reports, prisoner debriefs, and capture enemy documents, the Varshani believed that they were faced not by a brigade, but in fact a reinforced Arcer division. 6 Mechanized continues to also lead the Arcer Army in gunnery and anti-tank missile doctrine, and is the lead unit for hosting the annual armoured fighting vehicle trials and competitions in the Arcer Army. | 6 Mechanized regularly rotates to the Dalfearn Garrison to participate in force-on-force exercises, and it is during these exercises it continues to reinforce its reputation in the Arcer Army for aggressive, decentralized armoured combat teams.
