Archers
In the Empire, the bow is the classic weapon of the yeomen,
and these troops are normally organised into small groups of skirmishers
who support the regimented units in battle. Trappers and hunters from
the northern provinces, such as Ostland, are often called to serve in
special units calles Huntsmen, which are employed to scout ahead of
the main army.
