Existing Lore
7 Rifle is headquartered in the South-Eastern Arcer city of Easthampton, in the Southern Mountains of Arcerion. The Brigade is heavily invested into light infantry operations, including mountaineering, air assault, pathfinding, long-range reconnaissance, and a limited maritime mission training. The Brigade itself was historically part of 1 Rifle Brigade, however was detached and became its own independent formation in the 1980s with an increased emphasis on light infantry operations due to the ongoing border clashes with Washakara and Telokona requiring a more high-readiness conventional force to be prepared to respond quickly to border clashes or be deployed abroad. The Easthampton Garrison also regularly hosts the Arcerion Patrolling Competition, wherein international teams compete in a series of soldiers skills, hosted and ran by 7 Brigade, to increase training and cooperation.
