10" 3 3+ 1 It is the favoured tactic of the Drakespawn Knights to harry the foe rather than to attack them head-on. They target the rear of enemy forces that seek to close upon those they call allies – or, more often, bait. An echelon of Drakespawn Knights hunts armies like the rokodiles of Ghur stalk their prey, snapping and weakening before moving in for the kill. The contribution of the Order Serpentis to the Cities of Sigmar is significant; many an expedition would have failed without the charge of a Dreadlord’s host. Whether they fight for Sigmar’s cause, or purely for their own advancement and sadistic enjoyment, is another matter entirely.
The Drakespawn Knights follow the ancient beastmaster traditions of Narkath – an Ulguan empire lost to the Age of Chaos that waged war from the backs of Black Dragons. The Drakespawn were created in an attempt to recreate the Nakarth mounts of old, but they lack the raw power and flight of their draconic predecessors. The aelves believe that, on some level, the Drakespawn must know that they are incomplete creatures, for they are bitter-natured indeed. Only when these carnivorous monsters can rip and tear in protracted combat do they show any signs of joy, savouring every hunk of meat they bite away and guzzle down. | ||
