The Western Provinces Missile Infantry

Jade Warrior Crossbowmen (Shields)

Armed with polearms, crossbows and equipped with heavy armour and shields, Jade Warriors are the bastion upon which the enemy breaks, be they defending their city’s walls or the centre of the Cathayan battle line. Cathayan soldiers make use of great, lacquered tower shields, either carried by gun teams or worn on the backs of warriors, so they might turn around and go down on one knee, creating a formidable defensive line.
