Each battalion has their respective cities and camps for recruitment. However, standard procedures for recruitment into the corps require basic military training, a fitness test and intelligence test. Mental capabilities are only tested for recruits of Descendants of Calamity and other special operations/forces. The course should take up to a month, afterwards, passers and graduates will be able to assign themselves onto a respective battalion or be assigned to one automatically. 
Further processes and procedures of recruitment are dependent on the battalion.

Contracts that require the elimination, capture or neutralization of a Kinetic Fighter can pay up to 100,000 euros at a minimum. Some contracts also instead reward prizes, possessions or weapons.

Mercenaries have ranks to distinguish their authority, command and abilities.

=== All-Stars ===
In the corps, there is the group of elites and commanders whom are known as the All-Stars. This group consists of the strongest Kinetic Fighters, smartest strategists and most resilient soldiers of the corps.
In this All-Stars, they are considered as the leaders of the corps, notably, Lieutenant Germany as he is the most active, most decorated and most reserved man of the corps. They are ranked in accordance to their strength, the weakest being Stuttgart Saxon and the most influential being Ezekiel Hollenfeuer. 
=== All-Star training program ===
This is a program headed by Heinrich Bavaria which aims to strengthen the mercenaries to make them potential successors to the all stars if the war will rage on for a while or if any all star dies. It is a training program held yearly, with maximum participants of 500 mercenaries. From there they will train under the leadership of Ezekiel and the motivation of Serene Ziegler. They will undergo trainings that can increase their awareness, intelligence, physicality, strength and mental capacity. 
|-|Misc=
== The Corruption of PANZER Hollenfeuer ==
During the time of the tyrant, Ezekiel would lead Descendants of Calamity under two personalities. The way he will treat you heavily depends on how he will see you or how you see Serene Ziegler or his family. He usually treats people as siblings and would offer them help. He respects anyone he personally knows. However, if he catches anyone courting, liking or admiring Serene Ziegler, Ezekiel will hold grudges against people and would go on rampages, indirect killings or even assassination to eliminate the threat of them successfully getting in a relationship with Serene.
Ezekiel would usually track down, monitor and communicate with people whom he suspects admires Serene. With the help of "Wassersaule", he is able to launch internal investigations and monitoring to determine the feelings of his men toward Serene. Once given enough evidence, Ezekiel will command his most respected Obersoldaten or Hauptmann (other than Nikolas Klinge and Erwin Hollenfeuer) to set up traps or directly kill his target. Upon refusal, Ezekiel will do it himself and challenge them to a fight, which will end up in their death. The cause of his rampage is because of his emotional attachment towards Serene but then it's also because he doesn't want to feel envy or fail in his final goal.
These killings and this mutiny will be covered up by Ezekiel and Wassersaule because they both enjoy it for they somehow perfect their power while doing it. 
=== The death of Justin Wadsworth - the first murder of Ezekiel ===
During the early stages of war, Ezekiel had recently launched an investigation against a person named Justin Wadsworth, a suspected admirer of Serene. Eventually, evidences line up that Justin has complete affection, romantic feelings and love for Serene. Ezekiel would eventually set out on a campaign to befriend Justin by giving him a welcome to his battalion as a legal representative as Justin was a burgeoning lawyer who needed a client. From there, Ezekiel would give Justin defendant tasks, to which Justin would win and Ezekiel would reward him in numerous ways. He would also befriend him by giving him therapy, presence, support and care. Justin would eventually see Ezekiel as a brother of his, although Ezekiel would feel empathy, he still wanted to kill him out of envy.
Eventually, Ezekiel would then kill the relatives and friends of Justin in unharmful ways. He would then consciously catch himself and reveal to Justin that he betrayed him. In an interrogation room, Ezekiel would then trap himself and Justin in the soundproof room. He executes Justin by impaling his chest with his Geokinetic cone, killing the man completely. Ezekiel then drills, demolishes and shreds the corpse of the man, killing him in the most brutal way possible. 
=== The triple killings ===
During the investigation of Erwin Hollenfeuer, Ezekiel would find out that 3 admirers of Serene are under his control. He befriends all three of them and gifts them wealth, position and power. But then, he would assign them in a reconnaissance mission to find Erwin Hollenfeuer. A day before the mission, Ezekiel would meet with greedy Socialist Soldiers, asking them to capture the three admirers alive and he would tell them their exact location. A day later, the plan would fall through and the three would be captured as prisoners of war.
Ezekiel would then anonymously visit the prisoners and torture them psychologically, mocking them, blackmailing them and stripping them naked as he beats them up and forces them to inhale methamphetamine. In the end, he hangs them upside down, leaving them there to die of starvation, dehydration and loneliness.
Though Ezekiel had killed more than four people, these are the most notorious ways Ezekiel had killed innocent people because of his envy. His corruption included 17 counts of murder, 2 counts of arson, 3 counts of destruction of property, 7 counts of Mutilation.
