Virtuous Noblemen
Elite cavalry guards who have turned their weapons against their former masters to serve the Yellow Turbans.The Yellow Turban rebellion challenges the corruption that poisons China and has made many question old loyalties.
These noblemen have renounced their former warlords to seek justice and redemption. Their previous life of privilege has trained and equipped them well, and they ride into battle clad in ornate armour and helmets upon impressive mounts of the finest stock.
With axes ready and raised shields, the impact of their charge is merely a way to break the enemy’s lines for deadly close combat.
