Wehmacht

The Wehmacht is the name of the personal Honor Gaurd that exists within House Lovie, under the command of the Patriarch of House Lovie, or the King of the Kingdom of Lucerne. The Wehmacht is the largest of any of the honor gaurds of the Kingdom of Lucerne, and this would appear obvious as it is the royal families personal army, and is paid for with the vast sums of money controlled by House Lovie. The Wehmacht is heavily used as a source of order for the recently created Order of the Red Dragon, and for this reason many of the ranks are completely identical in both forces.

The Wehmacht grew during the events of the Driving Tide when William Lovie needed his own personal army to allow him more control during the events of the conflict. After the war the Wehmacht annexxed large amounts of forces as William Lovie was paid tribute in men by many of the houses and minor kingdoms that he took control of during the capture of the Valley. During the constant conflicts that followed the creation of the Kingdom of Lucerne, it was always with the Wehmacht being at the center of these conflicts that turned them from a simple house on house problem to a problem of the realm. Wherever the Wehmacht went the resistence to the leadership of House Lovie swiftly ended behind it, and this was true during the nearly every conflict fought that involved the Wehmacht.

Reich Marshal
The Grand Marshal is the overal commander of the Wehmacht and as an apointee from the members of House Lovie since he has control over such a large amount of the House Lovie forces, he is usually a member of the family himself, or the most loyal person they can find.
