Grenadier (Neo-Infinite Empire)

Grenadiers were elite infantry units in the Army of the Neo-Infinite Empire that acted as its main striking force. Recruited from among the ranks of Crusaders, the Grenadiers were some of the most experienced and seasoned soldiers of the Neo-Infinte Army. It was considered a specialty, not a rank, as recruits of the Grenadiers kept their original rank. They were tasked with acting as the vanguard during mass assaults and carrying out special operations. As a result, the casualty rate among Grenadier units was high, and statistically only one out of every five Grenadiers remained alive for more than several years. However, when a officer appointed a Crusader to this status it was considered an honor and refusal was unacceptable. The Grenadiers were thus considered the most fanatically loyal and skilled troops in the Empire's army.
