The 25th Naval Infantry Regiment is the premier New Model Army regiment in the Sunrise Isles and makes up the bulk of all soldiers deployed to the region. Infantrymen who belong to the 25th are mostly a healthy mix of fresh recruits from the Union and veterans from the Coalition days, though it has more recently opened its doors to limited numbers of Sunrise locals. The 25th is first and foremost a conventional infantry force, using its tactic of "Tidal Warfare" to overwhelm enemy positions using infantry in conjunction with mechanized troops.

The Canadian Auxiliary Corps is what remains of the old Canadian Armed Forces, soldiers of the Canadian Federation who fought for king and country, until the country was destroyed by a joint Northeast-Quebecois invasion. After their loss in the war, they retreated to the Midwestern Union and integrated with the New Model Army. In the Sunrise Isles, there are two CAC units present, the 17th Royal Engineers and the 2nd Kathleen Company. 17th are trained in engineering, fortification, and defensive warfare tactics, responsible for holding down captured territory. The 2nd Kathleen Company is a Commando unit that is airborne capable, being used for irregular and specialized warfare against enemy forces.

The 37th MotorComms Company, originally the 37th Signal Platoon, is a motorized unit in the New Model Army, and was deployed to the Sunrise Isles to support the 25th and to operate all vehicles and communications. The soldiers of the 37th are trained to operate backpack radios in order to streamline communications in the theater, as well as the ability to operate vehicles from motorcycles to Half-tracks. These soldiers either come from exceptional Infantrymen who were given special training, or civilian volunteers to the unit, who have experience on their own.

The 1st Sunrise Volunteers are perhaps one of the most unique units of the New Model Army. They are made up entirely of volunteers native to the Sunrise Isles who swore loyalty to the Midwestern Union and now fight for the cause of the New Model Army. The 1st largely rely on their creativity and sometimes numbers to gain the upper hand, as they have lackluster training and equipment. The first fight mainly concerns citizenship for the Midwestern Union, and they are paid based on their unit's overall effectiveness. The 1st is under the full administrative control of the 25th Naval Infantry.

The 5th Battlegroup has been sent to the Sunrise Isles to ensure control over the region and to provide fire support and easy access to supplies to the ground forces on the frontlines.
