THAIN

Archers $23.50
The most skillful hunters of a tribe frequently go to war
as archers. The tribes, with the exception of the Eagle tribe, don't consider
the bow as a particularly honourable weapon, however the chieftains have no
objections against the losses inflicted by the archers against lightly armoured
opponents.
4502
Skirmishers $23.50
Skirmisher units usually consist of the young warriors of
a tribe. They either do not have the experience necessary to stand their ground
in the turmoil of a melee, or they still have to prove their worth as warriors.
4503
Spearbearers $23.50
A large portion of the tribe warriors move into battle
armed with a spear. The spear, owing to its ease of manufacture, became a
popular weapon of the tribes and proved, in the first battles on the mainland,
to be an effective weapon against cavalry, which is foreign to Thain armies.
4504
Warriors $23.50
These units consist of the best warriors of a tribe,
normally older and experienced men. These men are sufficiently prosperous to
afford a sword that is sometimes even forged from iron.
4505
Savage Warriors $23.50
Many Thain warriors spend the night before a battle
getting drunk on masses of mead, in which the Shamans have mixed heady herbs.
Once these warriors are on the battlefield they are virtually consumed with
battle fury - some also say with headaches.
4506
Wolfmen $19.50
Some members of the Wolf tribe are so spiritually near to
their totem that they are able to let the spirit of Wolf take over their body.
When this occurs they change into beings, half human, half wolf, who drop their
weapons and charge their opponents with wild growls, tearing them to pieces and
devouring their flesh.
4507
The King's Wolves $19.50
This elite unit was created by Lasser'rak, one of
Tjarven'reys companions, to serve the High King as special body guards. The unit
consists of the best warriors of the Wolf tribe and are provided, by the Dorga
church, with the best weapons that Thain has to offer.
4508
Eagle Archers $19.50
The Eagle tribe has always had the most renowned archers
that Thain produced, and this unit is no exception to that. The members of this
unit always try to attack quickly and with deadly effect, in the same manner as
their namesake does with his claws.
4509
Eagle Arrow $8.00
Old tales tell of a time long ago when the Eagle tribe
had to defend themselves against huge Gar'ydwen that lived in the mountains.
Their skin was however so thick that an arrow would not even scratch it. Thus
the Eagle-Warriors built bigger and bigger bows, at last even mobile ones, until
they could finally kill the Gar'ydwen with a single shot.
4510
Ghost Bears $19.50
The Ghost Bears are comprised of the biggest men in the
Bear tribe that is already well known for its very tall warriors. These giants
wear armour and bearskins and wield gigantic swords in battle that are capable
of splitting a man in two with a single blow.
4511
The Raging Boars $19.50
The trademark of this unit are the gigantic horns which
adorn their helmets.The horns are taken from the tusks of particularly large
boars, and when the warriors charge their opponents with lowered heads they
frequently pierce the best armour plating.
4512
The Silver Lions $19.50
This unit, of the Mountain Lion tribe, is respected and
feared by all the Thain tribes. The "Silver Lions" are enveloped in
the fur of the silver lion, an especially big and strong species of the Thain
mountain lion.
4513
Gar'nar'og $12.00
The Gar'nar'og has the temperament of a winter storm and
is only controlled by its rider with extreme effort. Due to the innate
blood-lust of these beings, however, it is sufficient for them to be steered
into the right direction during a battle. The rest the Gar'nar'og do completely
on their own.
4514
Gar'worgar $16.50
The Gar'worgar, like its relative the Gar'nar'og, reaches
a shoulder height of a good four meters. The animal possesses a densely matted
type of hair over its whole body that protects it against attacks.
4515
Gar'morrigu $12.00
This animal, whose name means "the big horn ",
resembles a cross-breed of a deer and a wool-rhinoceros, which are still
sometimes to be seen in the North Mark of the Empire.
4516
Gar'ydwedd with Archers $32.50
Since the Gar'ydwedd are more easily controlled than the
other Gar'ydwens, the Thain tribes fit them with a platform which can take up
either a handful of archers or a slightly smaller version of an Eagle Arrow. The
warriors on these platforms are so high above the battlefield that the only way
to fight them is with missile weapons or magic.
4517
Gar'ydwedd with Ballista $32.50
Since the Gar'ydwedd are more easily controlled than the
other Gar'ydwens, the Thain tribes fit them with a platform which can take up
either a handful of archers or a slightly smaller version of an Eagle Arrow. The
warriors on these platforms are so high above the battlefield that the only way
to fight them is with missile weapons or magic.
4518
Gar'arryds $16.50
The "big pigs" are by far the smallest of the
Gar'ydwen. It appears however that as a result of their proverbially bad moods
they are even more unpleasant than their larger relatives. They resemble
gigantic boars and their back is covered with elevated, spiky bristles.
4519
Tur-Gar'arryd $12.00
The more prosperous warriors of a tribe often yoke
especially powerful Gar'arryds in front of huge chariots made from strong,
wooden planks. The single axle waggons are built with high side-walls which
protect the crew against hostile attacks.
4520
Dagorkon'yaghar with Winter-Wolves $9.50
Dagorkon'yaghar is the most famous warrior of the Wolf

themselves on the battlefield as their penance.

The Death Guard $19.50
