The Republic of Texas Army mobile infantry regiments are the backbone of the Texas Army. Wherever the Army goes, it is the mobile infantry’s battle armored troops that hold the ground the rest of the Army uses. They secure our bases. They scout the enemy bases, towns, and cities. They protect friendly tanks, mechs, and aircraft from their counterparts in the enemy ranks. The mobile infantry regiments go everywhere the Army goes, and they are the basic combat unit that everybody sees. They do most of the fighting, and most of the getting shot, and their battle armor is the uniform that most people think of when they picture the Republic of Texas Army. They may not be able to run faster than a speeding grav tank, fly like the aerial cavalry, or lift small buildings higher than a mech, but they hold the lines that must be held when all other combatants are engaged. The mobile infantry is the Republic’s first and last line of defense, and they have always held.
