Northern Imperial Army

== Combat Doctrine ==
Arcane warfare, precision assaults, misdirection, lore culling, macro-coordination multi-theatre campaigns.
== History ==
The Northern Imperial Army was formed of the veterans of the Farcraft Rebellion; it was understood that it would have little access to new supplies and manpower. A large contingent of mages followed Emperor Brennen and General Warrizek to the Northern Dome, where they built a research station. They were able to recruit some men from Jotunheim, but for the most part, it was all they could do to trade for supplies. At its heyday, the Northern Imperial Army numbers around 2500 men. 
Some military historians considered the Northern Imperial Army to be a highly underrated army, lost to obscurity. They would point to its technological prowess, integration of mages, and meritocratic promotion. They committed atrocities, but did so dispassionately. 
== Organization ==
The organization of the Northern Imperial Army began identically to that of the Arendurian Army, as indeed both forces had been founded by General Farcraft. Upon their arrival in the Northern Dome, the army shifted its beliefs radically, due to circumstances and to the preferences of Warrizek and Brennen.
