Product Description:

The Steel Legion is one of the most revered and historic fighting forces in the Tellian Empire. Originating from the Old Dominion's legendary legions and evolving into the professional armies first fielded by the Emperor, the Steel Legion's legacy is rich and unparalleled. While many military forces come and go, only the Orders can claim a more prestigious and storied past than the Steel Legion.

In the absence of an Emperor, the Steel Legion stands as the most influential and formidable mercenary company in the Empire. With a reputation for excellence, they sell their services to noble houses, but only to those with a legitimate cause for war, as recognized by the Imperial Conclave. The Steel Legion's wealth is bolstered by their standing contract with the Imperial Chamberlain, where they are tasked with protecting Argem from outside threats. While the contract is viewed by many nobles as a political move to ensure the Chamberlain's allies remain firmly positioned, no Noble House has dared directly challenge the Steel Legion on this front.

How They Play:

• Veterans of the Empire: The Steel Legion boasts a wealth of experience, making them highly effective soldiers that thrive in both offensive and defensive scenarios. Their deep history and combat expertise allow them to excel in strategic roles.

• Mercenary Strength: As a mercenary force, they are always ready for hire, ensuring that they can be employed for campaigns outside the Empire or where there’s a just cause. This flexibility makes them a valuable asset for commanders who need experienced and reliable troops.

• Steadfast Defenders: The Steel Legion is known for their defensive capability. They are often the last line of defense for key territories and noble houses. Their experience in sieging and holding ground is a critical asset in the mid to late game of a battle.

• Noble Support: With a Command Card that can enhance the leadership and tactics of the Steel Legion, they can also bolster other Hundred Kingdoms regiments, making them a powerful synergy unit in a well-constructed force.

• High Morale and Discipline: Thanks to their long-standing contract with the Imperial Chamberlain, the Steel Legion brings elite discipline and morale to any battle, ensuring they fight with the highest resolve when employed on the battlefield.

In Summary:

The Steel Legion represents a venerable legacy of martial prowess, being masters of defense, mercenary strength, and strategic deployment. Whether defending the heartlands or offering their services to noble houses, they are a reliable and devastating force on the battlefield. With their Command Card enhancing their leadership and their storied past making them an elite force, the Steel Legion is a versatile and powerful addition to any Hundred Kingdoms army, especially those seeking a reliable backbone for their forces.
