Uniforms of the Royal Manticoran Army

The following sections contain written descriptions and illustrations that cover all available RMA, Home Guard, and The Queen's Own uniforms. The written descriptions are broken down for enlisted personnel, warrant officers and officers. Each written description is designed to compliment the illustrations included on that page. Please reference the illustrations and the Measurement and Insignia Guide for proper placement of uniform items.

The artwork throughout the following sections is for informational purposes only and included to provide a visual reference to supplement the text and the provided measurements. Neither myself, nor the original artist of the base models all artwork that appears in this manual are based off of, are fashion artists. While every effort has been made to ensure the artwork is as accurate as possible, the drawings should not be considered “to scale.” Please default to the textual descriptions and the included measurements as necessary. Thank you for your understanding.

The Home Guard

Units of the Home Guard, as they are under the patronage of Peers of the Star Kingdom, have traditionally been given broad leeway in regards to senior enlisted dress, and warrant officer/ officer mess dress uniforms. Peers are free to design and implement optional variations on those manners of dress, within reason, that are unique to their regiment.

That said, the Home Guard, as soldiers of the Star Kingdom, wear standard Royal Army uniforms, with certain minor modifications as indicated throughout the following sections, for all manners of dress unless wearing the optional uniforms indicated above. Peers may work with the TRMN Uniform Board, the Marshal of the Army, or both preferably, if they require any assistance designing their unique uniform.
