Description
The Guardsmen of Courvas are a simple yet effect unit that makes up a large portion of the military of Courvas. The Guardsmen are heavily equipped for defense and will often be posted to reinforce and protect the towns, cities, caravans and other social locations under the holy kingdoms' rule. Many of the officers and other figures of notable rank among the military and clergy of Courvas will have at least a couple of Guardsmen to help assure their safety or the safety of their belongings. While the guardsmen are not particularly potent in terms of combat ability, they are respectable defenders that will give their lives to hold the line.
