Hunters of Chrace
The people of Chrace are renowned in Ulthuan for their skill with the axe, and as woodsmen. The best warriors of Chrace can try to join the famous White Lions, but there are some warriors who either do not or cannot join this regiment. Many Chracians chose a life as a hunter in the woods of Chrace. They hunt wild animals for food and clothing, but never take more than they need. The hunters are equally at home hunting Dark Elves on the field of battle as they are hunting wild boar. The Hunters of Chrace serve as scouts and infiltrators for the army of Ulthuan.
Your army may include 0-2 units of Hunters of Chrace, as long as you have at least one unit of Spearmen or archers.

Special Rules
Skirmish. The Hunters of Chrace may skirmish if you wish.
Woodsmen. The Hunters of Chrace spend most of their lives in the woods of their home. Because of this they suffer no movement penalties for moving through woods.
Deployment. The Hunters of Chrace are deployed after all other troops on both sides. They may be placed anywhere on the board, except in the enemy's deployment zone, or in line of sight of his troops. If both sides have troops able to deploy in this manner, eg Wood Elf Scouts, roll for it, whoever rolls highest deploys second.
Axe Throwing. Because of their great strength, and many hours of practice, The Hunters of Chrace may throw their axes an extra 2". 6" as opposed to 4". I'm also trying to write a Chracian themed army list but aren't really getting anywhere. After all, why would anyone want to use an axe, when they can have a spear with citizen levy rules? Any input would be appreciated.
