Arcturan Guards, 1st-26th

When on parade or ceremonial duties, vehicles of the Arcturan Guards use a flat white paint scheme with no highlights or contrast colors. In contrast to the oval-shaped regimental insignia, the symbol of the entire Arcturan Guards takes the form of a green shield upon which is a large white single-bladed axe.

The Eleventh uses the standard white paint scheme of the Arcturan Guards, but they often paint part of each vehicle black (an arm, a wing, etc.) to symbolize their fellowship with the dark reaches of the Periphery. The oval-shaped regimental insignia depicts a lion rampant before a field of stars.

When on parade or ceremonial duties, vehicles of the 15th Arcturan Guards use a flat white paint scheme with no highlights or contrast colors. In the field, tiger stripes are painted on the upper arms of the unit’s ‘Mechs, and on parade the unit adopts the animal’s black, white and gold camouflage. The insignia of the Fifteenth depicts a stylized tiger face peering out of long grass.

Named for the stubborn and belligerent ruminant farmed on Arcturus, the insignia of the Seventeenth depicts a goat’s head with tightly spiraled horns. 

The insignia of the Nineteenth depicts a mountain lion standing on a rock surrounded by laurel leaves.

The Twentieth Guards’ insignia shows the head of a roaring white bear, its teeth stained with blood.

 The insignia for the Twenty-third is an icy white paw with long, bloodstained claws.

The 25th Arcturan Guards insignia is the profile of a silver and black wolf’s head.

The 26th Arcturan Guards supplement their white scheme with light blue, which was added as a sign of respect for the members of the fallen 20th and 25th Guards.
