Wotan has been used extensively by the New Prussian government to great effect. With almost every engagement involving Wotan being won by New Prussia. Wotan is exclusively a Pagan militia, with Polytheism being a requirement for enlistment.

History

PMC Wotan was orignally formed in The Second Republic of Schpecktenia by Luka Hochreich I after the Two Days War, this PMC was comprised of New Prussian Nationals and Pagans with the intent to have a militia for the percieved oppressed religious group. The unit also adopted members of the defunct "Totenkopf Battalion". This unit was later integrated into the New Prussian government after New Prussia became independent from Schpecktenia.

During the New Prussia-Schpecktenia War, PMC Wotan was the first to engage, seizing Schpecktenian colonies. A joint operation between the Reichsheer and PMC Wotan was launched against the capital of the Imperial Federation of Schpecktenia, the Grand Estate of Meadowen, where the forces were able to capture the city. This event is one of the largest and successful operations of the PMC Wotan.

During the Greater Metro East War, PMC Wotan briefly feuded with the Reichsheer due to the Reichsheer's perceived incompetence and sabotage of Wotanite equipment and supply lines. This was forcible ended by the Kaiser in order to secure the front.
