Elite Forces
The G.A.L. also has three types of elite units. They are Assault, Snow, and Mountain Troopers. Paratroopers are considered elite, but are designated under the sub-branch of regulars. Assault Troopers are trained to attack heavily fortified positions under enemy fire. They are known to take such positions while suffering less then a 15% casualty rating. Snow Troopers are trained to fight in snowy conditions in any terrain. Mountain Troopers are trained to fight in mountanous terrain.

Special Forces
The G.A.L.'s main spec ops unit are the T.A.S. (Tactical Assault Specialists). They work in either two-man sniper hunting and/or recon teams or four to six-man squads. They are known for their huge amounts of skill, but also for their highly constroversal aggressiveness. One of these controversies was during the Northlandic Civil War when four T.A.S. troopers shot and killed four Red Beret insurgents and six civilians. They were also involed with subjugating the SLA during the Second Sorrow.

Home Guard
The Home Guard is the country's militia, made up of men who serve for five years or more but don't serve overseas. They are used for domestic disorder or if the country is invaded (see Golden City War).
