Deathjacks (Archers)
One can rely on the Deathjacks to silently track the foe to their location... but also snaffle the baggage train and the last of the mead!The Deathjacks, renowed archers who can track a foe at speed through any forest, were initially hired to scout ahead of the Stirland army during the civil war of the Three Emperors. Since then, they have continued to fight in Imperial service, ambushing opposing scouts and finding hidden paths from which to catch the foe unaware. Used to fending for themselves, they are dubbed “mutton-stickers” or “thievingjacks” by their own comrades, as supplies mysteriously go missing whenever the Deathjacks are around. All is forgiven, however, when they return from a scouting mission, waving their banner to signify enemies ahead or blaring the all-clear on their hunting horns.
