ComStar military structure

ComStar's military arm, the ComGuards, and its Word of Blake splinter faction's Militia share a common heritage and continued use of ComStar military structure. Unlike Successor States' 4-unit and Clan 5-unit groupings, both organizations base their forces on multiples of six. ComStar's equivalent of a Lance or Star is a Level II, made up of 6 Level I units, and given both militaries use of combined arms tactics most frequently consists of a mixed units.

Neither the Word of Blake Militia nor the ComGuards commonly use a formal organization above Level IV. Outside of such rare instances as the Battle of Tukayyid and Case White, Levels V and VI are purely administrative groupings.

Rank	Unit	Consists of
Acolyte	Level I	1 'Mech or armored vehicle or aerospace fighter, or single standard infantry unit.
Adept	Level II	Six Level I units, often referred to as demi-company.

Precentor	Level IV	Six Level III units, alternately referred to as a division.
Precentor Martial	Level V	Six Level IV units, alternately referred to as a army.
