Template:Organization infobox The Koorivar Fusiliers were soldiers under the employment of the Corporate Alliance that formed one of the few organic components of the Confederacy of Independent Systems' combined military forces. They stood guard in factories and commanding offices of the Confederacy.
As its name shows, the unit consisted primarily of Koorivar. Member were distinguished by red head-armor, rib-armor, black metal boots, a hole for the horn on forehead armor, and metal gloves. Their primary weapons were Koorivar-manufactured blasters.
Passel Argente, the leader of the Corporate Alliance, took four or five of these as escorts. They were excellent warriors who only fought with their weapons when commanded.
Koorivar Fusiliers were deployed at Moorja and later at Bomis Korri IV under General Oro Dassyne. General Grievous also sometimes used these troopers in specific battle strategies during the Outer Rim Sieges.
Organization
The command structure of the Koorivar Fusiliers was similar to that of the Grand Army of the Republic, though much smaller. The Fusiliers also relied heavily on artillery units during battles, each emplacement manned by two engineers and a crew leader.
The smallest combat unit was the Squad, twelve Fusiliers led by a sergeant. Three squads made up a Platoon led by a lieutenant. A Company was three platoons, plus support personnel, commanded by a captain. A Battalion was three companies plus support and was commanded by a colonel. The largest unit was the Regiment, composed of three battalions (972 Fusiliers in total) plus support personnel, and commanded by a general.
