Weapons of the East Antigonian War

This article is about the weapons used in the East Antigonian War, which involved the Eszterian Continental Army (EKH), Micsütemite Republican Army (MKH), and the armed forces of Temischa (TBA), and a variety of irregular troops.

The Micsütemite forces were armed primarily with Granzerian and Acronian weapons including the 1895.M Puska, Chauchat, as well as the newly developed Acronian Thompson Submachine gun. Micsütem-aligned insurgents and militias in Eszteria, were primarily made up of ethnic minorities living within Eszteria, who rebelled against abuse and oppression from the Eszterian government. While they primarily made use of captured weapons such as Mosin-Nagant rifles, in early august the Granzerian military provided these insurgents and guerillas with Thompson Submachine guns, and Chauchat light machine guns to replace their older weapons.

The EKH, primarily made use of outdated equipment from both Imperial Granzery and Belovar League, but also employed a small amount of domestic equipment. Primarily the Eszterian forces used Belovar Mosin-Nagant rifles as well as the Chazicarian MP-18.
