The Royal Nigarian Expeditionary Force


The Royal Nigarian Expeditionary Forces


The Royal Nigarian Expeditionary Force, or the RNEF, is made up of both active and reserve personnel. As all of Nigaria requires national service, it is estimated that of the 74 million people in Nigaria, 2.65 million people are in active service, with another 4 million people trained but not currently in active service, instead awaiting a call up to service if required. On top of this, of the 74 million people, 15 million people have some form of military training.

Due to the conflicts decades earlier, the RNEF maintains a sizeable inventory of weaponry, while also maintaining a very war-like mentality. With strict training, compulsory service between the ages of 16 and 25 and close links with law enforcement in Nigaria, the RNEF boasts a rather successful list of campaigns. Compulsory service lasts four (4) years.

The RNEF doesn't only focus on military activities. While it does play a significant part, the RNEF also acts as law enforcement (roughly 175,000) across Nigaria, as well as the nations medical personnel (roughly 250,000) and nations fire service (roughly 75,000). Furthermore, the RNEF's education system is one of the nations best public services in the country, available only in Fort Dobb and teaching from ages 3-19. Most officers usually have been in the RNEF education system from a young age.



Uniform and Insignia

As for uniform, the RNEF has no standard uniform, instead leaving design decisions to the General. However, 90% of the uniforms in use follow the same DDPAT/Tiger combination due to a collective decision made by several of the acting generals. The differentiation instead is made through their headgear, an intricate morion-influenced helmet, inscribed with their regiments insignia, their rank and a lining of coloured felt to show their position in their regiment. Generally, the actual insignia's are actually not too disimilar to those of regiments in similar lines of work, such as all reconnaissance regiments containing an eagle, artillery containing a pig and so forth.

The uniform is considered a staple of a soldiers kit, with hours upon hours being dedicated to ensuring the uniform standards are maintained. For some Kolors, a promotion may be denied based solely on a uniform. For most soldiers, the uniform will have the aforementioned DDPAT/Tiger camouflaged shirt and pants with the option of rolling sleeves set to Battalion Majors, their morion helmets, a green beret with appropriate coloured bobble, a training uniform, black parade boots, black/brown patrol boots, a plate carrier, a carry-all and any added accessories that are provided based on a Kolors current situation.

As for the colouring, the regiments use these colours to differentiate between roles in their regiment:

- Red: Medically trained members in the unit (doctors, nurses).
- Red w/ yellow: Medically trained members in the unit (first aiders).
- Green: Administrators/paperwork handlers.
- Dark blue: Military police.
- Light blue: Engineers/Pioneers.
- White: Cooks/Cleaning.
- Black: No specific role.

Short Description

KBL MAR

1999-Present

2.00M

4.00M

The KBL MAR fires a 7.62x40 R4R tactical round from a 20 round magazine. Developed in the late 90's by Kurtzing, it won over the Princes against the MF83. Able to support RIS mounted attachments both over and underslung, as well as a bayonet attachment point, the rifle allows for a large assortment of upgrades. Furthermore, its well designed tolerances mean the rifle operates well in all conditions, able to withstand extreme environments. Now used as the primary battle rifle for soldiers across the RNEF, its unique green furniture and steel receiver give a unique look for the esteemed military.

Osas LSW-P LMG

2010-Present

0.85M

1.00M

The Osas LSW-P fires a 7.62x58mm R4R tactical round from a 40 round stick magazine or a 97 round drum magazine. After years of using old tech, the Princes hired RN Manfac to develop the rifle/round combination to replace their old MF93-A. After several iterations, they finally presented the Osas LSW-P light machine gun. Even with a slower rate of fire, the large round makes up for the lack of fire rate, allowing for accurate and powerful concentrated fire. Once its design was completed in 2010, the rifle went straight into production.

Wexford LR82

2016-Present

0.05M

0.05M

The Wexford LR82 fires a 9.3x62mm titanium tipped Dreamround rounds from a seven round or 15 round magazine. Over the course of 30 years, Dreamround had developed the ultimate sniper rifle, with a floating barrel, recoil-assisting shock absorbers in the stock and a unique round, re-designed off an old hunting round used on elephants. Due to its complexity, however, the rifle is reserved only for top tier marksmen, with many being issued a modified KBL MAR as a DMR instead. The rifle was first adopted in 2016.

DR99

1971-2000

0.02M

6.50M

The DR99 fires a 9mm Parabellum round from a 30 round stick magazine. Developed in the late 70's, the SMG is reserved for use by local police forces and tanker crews, where larger cartridges are overkill. With a solid wooden stock and a unique silhouette, it is instantly recognisable. Its creator, Darren Robinson, now lives in Royal Nigaria, where his small workshop still develops the SMG. Being cheap and quick to produce, it is a popular reserve weapon in many armouries across the nation. It was officially taken out of the primary arsenal in 2000, even though widely used.

K1 Revolver

2005-Present

0.75M

1.00M

The K1 is one of Royal Nigaria's oldest serving weapons, dating back to the early 1920's. Being one of Kurtzing's first weapon patents, it boasts many modern upgrades, such as an intricate holographic dot and flash hiders. The newest model was first made in 2005, replacing many of the older models. It fires a .44 Special from a six round rotating cylinder.
