Jump to: navigation, search

A crack mercenary unit that is hired for more special uses or to supplement an army with a more trained and deadly unit. Unit numbers within the dragon range for number of soldiers hired. These units normally are lead by someone a little more then your average heroic mortal such as a godblood, thaumateurge or outcaste dragonblood. Equipment is well maintained and of above average condition.

This example will have an outcaste leading the unit and will be using Power Combat stats and rules. More units will come in time including a crack cavalry unit and crack archer support unit. The first number is the leaders pool before any adjustments. You don't need to have the Dragon Blood book or outcastes to use this, relevant information supplied.
