Conscripts?

Someone intimated (damned if I'm going to search back through all that to find it) that the Lunar occupation forces in Sartar were mostly conscripts.

Dammit, not only have I never seen any material anywhere that says the Empire conscripts troops but I don't believe it. Conscription is needed when your back is to the wall and you are facing defeat unless you get every damn man into the fight. Not when you're expanding and there's land and loot to be won.

Comments?
