Camouflage was removed from field uniforms for personnel assigned to the Trans-Euran Continental Theatre in 1698 AN as being 'contrary to the martial ethos of the Constancian and Euran tradition'. The standardisation of the uniforms of the regular and home guard elements of the Imperial Constancian Armed Forces on the Pattern M1698 Field Uniform removed an element of competition between regiments that had become increasingly fixated on peacock displays of sartorial superiority over their rivals.
For personnel who absolutely required to conceal their position for extended periods, such as scouts, sentries, and snipers, scrim nets and a chit providing permission to befoul their uniforms with mud and foliage could be given by commanding officers at the squadron level and higher.
The M1698 Field Uniform was also issued to Surenid troops as well as to Alexandrian personnel deployed on Operation Paramount. For this reason tunics and outer garments featured an inverted chevron on the left sleeve; coloured purple for Constancians, red for the Surenid, and white for Alexandrians.
