The King's Grenadiers (KING GREN; French: Grenadiers du Roi) is the most senior regiment of the Baustralian Army, and is the first in succession of the three infantry regiments. It is responsible for the safeguarding and protection of the the Sovereign and the Kingdom, and as a first regiment for new recruits. It has fought in the Baustralian Conquest in the battles of Tentacion Creek at Kingston against Tentacion, and at Cornwall against Blairtopia.
It is modeled after the Grenadier Guards of the United Kingdom, and the Canadian Grenadier Guards of Canada. They wear the traditional red coat full dress uniform, a standard green ceremonial dress, and a similar cap badge to the Grenadier Guards. They also share the same regimental marches, both in quick time – The British Grenadiers – and in slow time – Scipio.
