Gong Du Yellow Turbans Ranged Infantry

Archery Masters

If one can focus body and mind as one, almost anything can be achieved.

Each of these archers has spent years mastering the bow for competition and concentration. With the addition of regular Taoist mediation, body and mind are in harmony, and each arrow launched hits with deadly accuracy.

They carry a full complement of quivers and are best deployed at a distance from the enemy; instead of armour, they wear elegant robes and carry only the most basic swords should they be forced to defend themselves in close combat.
