GAR

likealeafonthewind:

So I decided to sit down and try to make sense of the GAR and its many divisions…..many days ago. It has been a massive undertaking, lol. But here’s what I’ve got, for anyone else who’s also interested in using this for worldbuilding.

Shoutout to @themikeymonster for listening (so to speak) while I went through my thought process for this.

This is the basic structure of the GAR:

This is what Wookieepedia says about the Sector Armies:

• The 2nd was led by Mace
• The 3rd army often reinforced the 12th and was the reserve unit for the Mid Rim
• The 4th army is led by Mundi and reinforced the 13th; was known as the Outer Rim Sector Army later
• Most of the 5th army was transferred to more active battlefields, since that covers the Deep Core; only a skeleton force remained there
• The 6th had repair yards and training camps
• The 7th supported the 5th and conducted secret scouting missions beyond the frontier
• The 8th saw lots of intense fighting and was reinforced by many of the reserves
• The 12th was charged with invading some of the Separatist strongholds in its area
• The 13th defended Kamino; it included the Hutt territory but there weren’t a lot of forces deployed to those areas; it was reinforced by the 4th and 14th
• The 15th was a reserve force primarily
• The 16th was mostly defensive and was meant to be able to move Coreward if necessary
• The 17th reinforced the 18th
• The 18th was under the command of Tarkin (who worked with Piell)

I’m throwing the rest of this under a cut because it’s long.

Thought you guys might make good use of this!
