Cities of Sigmar – Freeguild Marshal on Griffon
12" 15 4+ 5 The highest battlefield office in each citizen host is that of the Freeguild Marshal. Each has been trained extensively in the military academies of their home city, their skills honed in the fires of war. When entrusted with the magical weaponry and protective amulets of their parent city, the Marshals reach new levels of deadliness on the field.
Each Marshal understands the importance of the calculated strike and the strategic withdrawal, the flanking manoeuvre, the bulwark and the feint. Their cutting blade is the cavalry wedge, their shield the wall of Steelhelms and their gun the massed Fusiliers firing on their mark to shred the enemy.
The tools of the Marshal’s trade are many. They include blessed blades of banishment, heavy warhammers that echo the holy form of Ghal Maraz, lances hung with glorious banners and duardin-crafted plate armour. Some take to battle upon a proud, avian griffon to better lead by example and to survey the battlefield from on high; such a sight is a morale boost unto itself, symbolising Azyr in all its glory. Identifying where their presence is most required, they descend like a speeding comet to lay waste to their enemies. | ||
