RED ELF
MILITIA

Broadly referred to as 'irregular troops', Militia units are called up as required, and no one can foretell how many men will turn up at the muster. These troops receive no formal training or discipline, and are armed with their own equipment at their own expense. Such troops are often either mercenaries, such as Crossbowmen from Tilea, or recruited from the peasantry, such as the Archers.

They wear their own clothes which may sometimes have a vaguely uniform appearance and are paid after the battle from the spoils or the Count`s war chest. Then they are disbanded once more.

Although Militia troops can operate as independent units, they will often provide detachments for the regular State Regiments.
