Line 43: Nueva Castile learned the art of warfare from the Umayyad, so they fight in much the same way. They maintain a large combined arms military supported by small units of [[BattleMechs]]. In the field, the army fights as lances of [[infantry]], [[combat vehicles]] and 'Mechs. These units fight as mixed companies. Castilian technology is roughly equivalent to that of the [[Inner Sphere]] in [[3025]].
