The majority of warriors in our armies are citizen militia
rather than professional soldiers. This militia is a form
of part-time army in which all take their turn to serve,
every Elf providing his own battle gear in defence of
his home and
country.
When he is inducted into the citizen levy, a keen-eyed young
Elf will begin his training in the Archers. Lacking the battle
experience of his older brethren, he fights from a distance
experiencing the carnage of war from a relatively safe place.
As his familiarity with the horrors of battle grows, he will
eventually be promoted to the Spearmen. This unit is the senior
arm of the militia and is expected to fight bravely in the
main line of battle. With decades of experience behind him,
an Elf can don the armour of a Spearman and join his fellows
in the rigorous training needed to fight efficiently as one
body.
High Elf Spearmen may be added to your High Elf army as a
Core choice.
