The Royal Easthampton Borderers is a light infantry regiment of the Arcer Army's Royal Arcerion Infantry Corps. It consists of a number of battalions and garrison units, split amongst both the Regular Force and Reserve/Territorial troops. Each of the Regiment's battalions form part of 7 Rifle Brigade, which is Arcerion's premier light infantry brigade. The Borderers focus on tasks such as mountaineering, air assault, pathfinding, long-range reconnaissance, individual marksmanship, and long-distance patrolling. The Regiment was created in 1890 after an amalgamation of the Easthampton Regiment and the Arcerion Easthampton Borderers, and has remained in its current configuration since it amalgamated the Arcerion highland Infantry Regiment which disbanded and re-badged to the Borderers in 1919. The Borderers are widely considered in Arcerion to be the premier light infantry Regiment in the Army, and are respected in Crona and Ixnay as world-class experts in alpine warfare and dismounted infantry operations.
