The Great Orthodoxy Infantry

Dazh's Hearth-Blades (Tzar Guard - Great Weapons)

Regiments of hardened warriors, formed of lesser nobles and veteran soldiers elevated to higher status from the ranks of the Kossars, the Tzar Guard are formidable, durable melee troops. Originally, they were instituted to serve as the Tzar’s personal retinue, and while he would invariably travel with a large warband of Tzar Guard at his back, almost every army of Kislev now boasts a regiment or two of these hardened warriors. This is because every Boyar and Marshal needs a steady core to their army – veteran warriors able to act as the bulwark of the Kislevite battle line.

Abilities

• By Our Blood
  Kislevite warriors are inherently stronger than weak-hearted Empire-men, who know nothing of the hardship and strife of lives lived on the unforgiving steppes.
• Dazh's Song of Winter Sunlight
  "Death is like a winter chill; No door can keep it from us; And summer yet may bloom again; Though ice be all upon us."

Attributes

• Hide (forest)
  This unit can hide in forests until enemy units get too close.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Armoured
  Armoured units can block damage from any source apart from Armour-Piercing damage.
• Armour-Piercing
  The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
• Anti-Infantry
  Anti-infantry units have an advantage against targets that are smaller than a horse. This advantage can be a damage bonus against small targets, superior weight used to smash through lighter enemies, or an explosive attack from range that effects a large area.
• Flaming Attacks
  This unit inflicts flaming attacks. Units hit by flaming attacks heal at half the usual rate whilst 'on fire’ and sustain additional damage if vulnerable to fire.
