The Stenzan Army of today is a modern light mechanized force suited to Stenza's defense. The bulk of its forces are formed into (light) mechanized divisions, which are mobile enough to thrive in Stenza's somewhat difficult terrain. Three air mobile divisions, two airborne divisions, two mountain infantry divisions and a single armored division finish up Stenza's offensive capabilities on land. One interesting thing to note about Stenza's light mechanized divisions is their secondary role as Gendarmerie divisions, with the bulk of these divisions being absorbed from the old Stenzan Internal Forces, a paramilitary agency under the previous government. Divisions and units that are marked as Gendarmerie divisions can perform constitutional law enforcement duties all over Stenza. | The Stenzan Army of today is a modern light mechanized force suited to Stenza's defense.

Aside from tis combat divisions, Stenza's military consists of multiple "commands" ran by generals that oversee specific parts of military operations. These commands are responsible for the training, functioning and oversight of various support functions while the units that perform these functions are usually part of combat divisions. | |||
Stenza's Army is a full time voluntary force with a major reserve component. Most army divisions are only staffed to a third of their normal wartime strength, with the other two thirds being drawn from reservists. Reservists are obliged to train for two weekends a month and two large exercises per year, with the government offering free education to every member of Stenza's military reserve. | Stenza's Army is a full time voluntary force with a major reserve component.
