ESB-Kosaken Afzælt (Praeta: ESB-Cuirassier-Division), a body of private contractors raised by the ESB Group on a contract from Benacia Command to support pacification operations in the Governorates of Gloomburg and Litel following their annexation by the Unified Governorates of Benacia in the year 1672. Recruited primarily from Red Lach and Mishalanski. Discharged from their contract and paid off following the Peace of Norfae in 1679.

In XIV.1679 the Cuirassier Division received a fresh commission from the Honourable Company to provide corporate security for regional operations on the continent of Cibola, a continent where two thirds of the land mass remained ungoverned and lawless following the collapse of Alexandria, where commercial opportunities opened up by the colonisation efforts of Natopia and Sanama, on the so-called Waffel Plains and Sanaman Antarctic Territory respectively had opened up new opportunities and threats.

During the southern hemisphere winter of 1685 (months VII–XI) the division spearheaded the plundering expedition into Helderbourgh following the collapse of the Franco-Batavian Empire and the end of the quarantine imposed upon territories infected by the Vanic Taint.

20.VI.1688 AN: the Cuirassier Division received a commission from the Cibola Command of the Raspur Pact to garrison Chur, a lordship in the province of Monovia, and to continue wide ranging patrols into the green to scourge the surrounding countryside of all revenants and Jing as might prove to be so inconsiderate and incautious as to venture down into the southern half of the continent unbidden.
