In {{AN|1753}}, [[Western Corum]] began to reorganise local GCABs according to a revised table of organisation and equivalent. The infantry and recon companies each lost one platoon, while the armoured squadron was disbanded and its three troops distributed among the former; a new quadwalker company of four platoons replaced the armoured squadron. Most GEVs were allocated an additional zombot as a dedicated driver, owing to ongoing concerns with the automated driving capabilities of the vehicles under combat conditions.

The Gravmech Combined Arms Battalion, or GCAB. is a core military unit in the armed forces of several Mondosphere countries, which began replacing the Gravmech Infantry Regiment in the early 1750 ANs. The term "Gravmech" is a contraction of "Gravimetric-mechanised" and indicates that the units are equipped with gravimetric vehicles.
