Gârd e Zhāyēdān

The Gârd e Zhāyēdān ("Immortals") are the Khan's pledged fidai, sworn to live and die in his service. They are the instruments of his rule. Eight battalions of the Immortals were raised, one to provide for the defence of Raspur and the person of the Khan, and the remaining seven garrisoned in the territory of his Satraps, to ensure that they are aware that they are never for a moment free from his reach. The Khan also enjoys the services of two salvaged attack-rotorcraft, commonly known nowadays as Whirdlebirds after the Minarborian fashion, with which he delights in leading personal raids on those wretched villages and nomad bands of the interior who have been tardy in paying the tribute that is his due.

Artesh-e Parcham Sabzi

The Diqhan, raised from the descendants of Euran nobility, are pledged to the service of the Satraps in whose name they were recruited and to whom their oaths have been given. The Diqhan battalions are both the bodyguards and the private armies of the Satraps and it is never entirely unheard of that they make war upon each other as much as they do upon the enemies of the Khanate. That Khan tolerates this fratricide, so long as it remains within tolerable bounds, as it keeps his subordinates fractious, suspicious and weak.

The Mutatawwi'a are religious troops who, inspired by their Zurvanist faith, have volunteered to fight. Untrained, reckless and fanatical, these troops are poorly equipped with primitive and improvised weapons. These wild warriors are more of a mob than a disciplined unit, eager to get into hand to hand combat with their enemy no matter the odds.
