2 Brigade, garrisoned at the Songun Barracks in Kinnaird, Arcerion is an infantry brigade of the Arcer Army. It lacks the heavier armour and mechanized forces of some of the other brigades due to its urban garrison, however it is permanently augmented by reserve armoured cavalry units from the Arcerion Loyal Horse (ALH), providing it with a light cavalry component in the case of a large-scale conflict. It is centered around two main units, the Kinnaird Grenadiers (KG) and the Western Arcerion Rifle Regiment (WARR). 2 Brigade also serves as one of the main proponents of the Army's new ISTAR initiatives as part of the 2022 Confederate Memo on Defence. 2 Briagade is the key partner for many unmanned aerial vehicle programs in the Army. 2 Brigade also shares the Kinnaird Garrison with the Arcerion Doctrine and Training Centre, and the Royal Arcerion Institute for War Studies, of which 2 Brigade supports both during their regular academic and military programs. | 2 Brigade, garrisoned at the Songun Barracks in Kinnaird, Arcerion is an infantry brigade of the Arcer Army.

2 Brigade was created at the start of the Southern Songun Conflict, and saw action in not only the Overland Campaign, but also the short-lived landing in Easter Songun. During the Overland Campaign, its gunners became majorly involved in the Siege of XYZ, which links to its historical heritage with modern representation through a cannon as the brigade emblem. In this, it was the first regular army brigade to be commanded by an artillery officer, which occurred with Colonel Eric Fulsom shortly after the Second Great War. 2 Brigade fought as part of Operation Pullman during the Second Great War, and also distinguished itself as part of the defense of XYZ, during the Carnish Civil War, where the Brigade and specifically the Kurst Foot Grenadiers were part of the fighting withdrawal of the Carnish Army, with 2 Brigade preventing the Marxist forces from outflanking the Corp's supply lines. This action itself resulted in one of the final Royal battle honours being bestowed, with the Kinnaird Grenadiers being bestowed the "Defense of Carna" battle honour, which is still on the Regimental Colours. | 2 Brigade was created at the start of the Southern Songun Conflict, and saw action in not only the Overland Campaign, but also the short-lived landing in Easter Songun.

==== 4 Mechanized Brigade ==== | |||
==== | 4 Brigade is one of Arcerions 'heavy' or more mechanized brigades, mainly focused on peer-on-peer conflicts and mechanized warfare. It is one of the newer brigades in the Arcerion Army, despite previous incarnations of the Brigade existing in both the First and Second Great Wars as infantry brigades. 4 Brigade is centered around the Arcerion Tank Regiment and the Arcerion Light Cavalry Regiment, which are in turn supported by mechanized infantry from the Royal Arcerion Regiment and Northlea Rifle Regiment (NRR). 4 Mechanized, as one of the main units at Presdale Garrison, is chiefly responsible for the manning and support to the Arceiron Maneuver Trainign Centre, which is one of the largest military training areas in Crona, and one of the most advanced and modern live-fire brigade training areas in Ixnay. | ||

4 Brigade was created in its modern context as part of Arcerion's military expansion post-2nd Great War, where the Brigade, despite a brief period of dissolution, was stood up again to take over Camp Presdale, turning it into the large, modern garrison and training area it is today. Since then, 4 Brigade went on to fight with distinction during the Final War of the Deluge, being part of the main Arcer thrust into Varshan and spearheading I Arco Corps up to Anzo for the eventual siege and follow-on actions. 4 Brigade also recently completed a peacekeeping deployment to Kelekona and Varshan, during both of which the Brigade saw limited combat. It is currently preparing for a deployment to the Northwestern Border Security Zone, and after that will assume a high-readiness role as part of the Cronan Security and Trade Union's high readiness forces. | |||
4 Brigade also helps to force generate combat teams for the Arcerion Maneuver and Training Centre's Combat Team Leadership Course. During this, members of the brigade help to train and educate officers and non-commissioned officers on mechanized warfare and modern maneuver tactics using advanced laser systems and the remote command and control functions that are enabled by AMTC's modern suite. 4 Brigade also is the leading Brigade in the Army for obstacle breaching and combat engineer tasks, as the Royal Regiment of Arcerion Engineers is also headquartered at Presdale Garrison along with the Arcerion Engineer School. | |||
