The Sovereign League for Defense and Deterrence (SLDD), is the state guard of the Sovereign Confederation, a paramilitary territorial defence force raised as an aid to the civil power which also serves as a wartime reserve for the Benacian Union Defence Force.
Remit
The Sovereign League for Defense and Deterrence normally serves as an auxiliary force for the realm, activated on the occasion of need, for the purpose of territorial defence. It can also serve as a mobilisation manpower reserve for the Benacian Union Defence Force, and may be called out for partisan warfare operations. During counter-insurgency missions the mobilised State Guard will normally be called upon to establish a cordon around a district or bailiwick in which more specialised agencies would then be free to operate as required.
