Warriors of the Left
Many enemies fall to the jian blades of these elite, heavily-armoured swordsmen defending the line in service of Yuan Shu.These troops have mastered the jian; a double-edged sword that takes a year of training to even become competent. This singles them out for selection for the Warriors of the Left, the best soldiers from an already elite group.
They have been equipped with heavy armour to protect them in their role to stand fast and hold the line, as they wait for enemy soldiers who are brave – or foolish enough – to risk the wrath of their expert swordsmanship.
