Special Units are extremely
specialised troops that appear on the battlefield less often than basic regiments. There
is a maximum number of Special Units that can be fielded, and this varies with the size of
the army (see "Armies of Albion"). |
0-1 COMITATENSES |
Points/model: 26 |
The Comitatenses are the most elite warriors in the armies of Albion.
When the forces of Albion march to war, the Comitatenses go with them, smashing into their
foes like a hammer when battle is joined. |
