Imperial Household Cavalry
Generations of warriors have served with pride and fury in the household cavalry. It is an institution beyond repute.As part of the household cavalry, these soldiers are personally charged with defending the emperor and delivering the dynasty's justice to any who would take up arms against him.
With their blades and shields they are able to charge into the fray of enemies and remain there, fighting effectively without the need to retreat and charge again. The Imperial Household Cavalry will stay the course, and battle the Han's enemies, to whatever end.

Imperial Solidarity
Whilst in the presence of other imperial forces, enemy blows will strike false more often, whilst their own will strike harder. -
Miasma
The dense and tough undergrowth that plagues the jungles of the South is a hindrance to all those who try to penetrate into the heartlands of the Nanman.
