Dwarven Swamp Navy

The Dwarven Swamp Navy were a subdivision of the Dwarven Navy created by the Empress Thrin during her capture of the jungle plane Aechalas. The Swamp Navy patrolled the major rivers of Aechalas and established ports near all major deltas.

Enlisted Men
The Swamp Navy sailors mainly wore normal work clothes as long as they had an olive green cap on. All sailors had with them a small automatic pistol, a cutlass, and a hatchet. Most battles the Swamp Navy participated in were with artillery.

Officers
Officers typically wore a standard Dwarven Military officer's uniform in olive green, along with a machete instead of a dress sword and brown leather instead of golden accents. Their cap had a silver button instead of gold, and had slightly different engravings for each rank. A sergeant had a square engraved in the button, a captain had a pentagon, a colonel had a hexagon, a general got an octagon, and the Commandant-Admiral got a circle.

Quartermasters
Quartermasters wore the same uniform as a typical officer, but had bronze accents and were considered of rank with captains. Their buttons were simply flat bronze circles on the cap, and Quartermasters received a special leather overcoat, as they remained on transports, which tended to be wet.

Transportation and Vehicles
Each platoon of the Swamp Navy had its own vehicles, including five canoes, a single monitor, and two machine-gun rowboats.

Canoes
The canoes of the Swamp Navy were just that - canoes - fitting two men and several crates of supplies. Occassionally a megarepeater rifle was mounted on the front of a canoe.

Monitors
The monitors of the Swamp Navy were heavily armed but slow boats with a small draft of only 4 feet. Within, there was a pilot's room, a small coal furnace for power, storage for ammunition, and six gunnery posts.

Monitors had two repeater cannons, mounted on ball bearings for full rotation, and four repeater rifles (not megarepeaters due to the larger amount of ammunition that could be stored in the same amount of space.

In addition, there was a ship-buster howitzer on the front that could be switched to by the forward cannon gunner to destroy an enemy vessel.

Machine-gun Rowboats
The Machine-gun rowboats of the Swamp Navy were simply five-person rowboats with a repeater rifle mounted to the front. In addition, there was enough space to fit six crates in the rear.

Rank and Numbers
The Swamp Navy numbered 36,000, comprising the 310th, 311th, and 312th Divisions of the Dwarven Navy. All three of these divisions were commanded by the Commandant-General of the Swamp Navy, Thramack II.

Under the Commandant-Admiral, there were three generals, each commanding a division. Each division was then subdivided into twelve battallions of one thousand. Each battalion was commanded by a Colonel. Within each battalion, there were ten Companies of 100 commanded by a captain. In each company, there were ten platoons of ten, each commanded by a sergeant.
