Highwaymen and others who live outside of the law, brigands are a common foe for a budding mercenary company. Mostly encountered near settlements of the northern noble houses and will often be your opponent during civilian contracts.

Nomads

Nomads are free people of the south who chose to live outside of the control of any city state.They travel the barren desert from one source of water to the next, hunting and scavenging, and living the freedom that they chose. Faced with surviving in this harsh environment, many nomads turn to banditry. It’s not all of them, of course, but as a mercenary in this world it’s who you’ll be dealing with most of the time. Nomads have a roster of their own, roughly similar to that of northern brigands, but with their own equipment and a unique skill. Home in the desert and experienced in desert warfare, they use the environment to their advantage. Quite literally, in that they may throw sand in the faces of their opponents, inflicting the ‘Distracted’ status effect. A distracted target will inflict less damage and have less initiative for a single turn. Nomads populate the vast southern deserts surrounding the city states of the Gilders.

Strengths Can carry a Three-Headed Flail after day 10 Has Dodge after day 40 Has +5 after day 40 Outlaws armed with whips will constantly attempt to disarm your more threatening damage dealers. Can use wait to chain up turns at no initiative penalty through Relentless. Uses Throw Dirt copiously, greatly hampering the damage of your front line Tactics Their armor is weak but their ability to avoid getting hit is exceptional for an enemy fought in high numbers, especially after day 40 and if they come with a shield Bring weapons that have bonuses to accuracy, a Warbrand might serve you better than a Longsword against them Fire Pots and Flash Pots are very effective since nomads like to clump up A good brother with a Handgonne can be devestating against nomads for the same reason. A couple of Swordlances to be used from the back line are also highly recommended. If your brothers have quick hands, you can pull their weapon out back again after the disarm and still have 6 AP left for an attack. Be mindful how you position yourself due to Backstabber Keep lightly armored or weaker nimble brothers away from outlaws double gripping Three-Headed Flails or using the Two-Handed Saif Adarga Shields are very easy to break ( Split Shield skill of most Axes is able to break it even without having Axe Mastery), Sipar Shields are not

Nomad specialists are southern equivalent of the hedge knight, swordmaster and master archer. They are found in the larger camps of their people and sometimes in the Arena.

Dogs can save you their loot if the stalker decides to run away after the front line is dead.

Barbarians

In combat, a barbarian warband doesn’t bother with formations, and they have no backline with polearms or dedicated archers. They are a horde of ferocious warriors in a constant shuffle of everyone trying to bring their weapons to bear against the enemy. They’ll shower you with throwing weapons, they run towards your line, and they make ample use of the ‘Adrenaline’ perk to overwhelm you before you can even strike back. They don’t fear death the same as other humans do, so they are not easy to break. They populate the far northen part of the map.

All of them are dangerous in the extreme, so try to burst them down as fast as possible. If that cannot be done, attempt to soften their impact or buy you more time to kill them with good positioning, Daze, Stagger and stuns. You will often fight them in hilly terrain, use that to your advantage. Keep Nimble brothers from Chosen armed with cleavers if you can. Smart use of Spiked Impalers allows you to knock them out of formation

City State Forces

Gilders are the denizens of the southern city states. Like the Northen Noble houses, their combat style is somewhat reminiscent of the legions of the Ancient Empire. Gilder forces can be encountered through contracts during the Holy War, or by angering one of the city states and engaging them straight on the world map.

Often come supported by other types of Gilder troops, and if they are fielded in large enough numbers a certain percentage of them will be polearm conscripts. Tactics Frontline conscripts act as meat shields for the rest of their army. They may have nimble, but their hitpoints still very low. Bring weapons that do well against flesh to make short work of them. Double gripped three headed flails can kill them very quickly if they come with bad headgear Adarga shields are very fragile and the conscripts lack shield expert, making them very easy to destroy with the appropriate skills.

Nimble means they are harder to bring down than Billmen in most situations. Tactics Whilst frontline conscripts cannot do much damage, the massed AoE swordlances of the backline can cause things to get out of hand very quickly, especially if combined with gunners Get to them through whatever means necessary. Daze pots will be very effective here.

Overwhelm and Fearsome work very well with Handgonnes. The former will debuff a large amount of targets each round whilst the latter can be triggered on an entire enemy group at once, causing further debuffs and possibly a full on rout. Gunners don't pay much heed to friendly fire, beware of that if you are fighting with them. Tactics Snipe with ranged brothers or otherwise target them with abilities that can reach behind the front line, lacking nimble makes them more fragile than the Conscripts that surround them. This is made easier due to the low range of their weapons. Bring kites for the brothers using shields. Be mindful of your positioning and of theirs. Use Rally the Troops to counteract Fearsome. Fighting at night in case you have no archers, crossbows or guns of your own is also an option, as is using a Night Owl elixir to negate their firepower whilst maintaining yours.

Tactics Nets are essential Lacks resilient, so you may be able to get great value out of poison Since they don't have Steel Brow, a three headed flail could be devestating if they come with the head wrap and not the face mask If you don't care about their armor, cleavers are probably the best choice here However, due to how fatigue efficent both the robes and face mask are for nimble brothers, you probably do. This makes battling assassins much harder since they will have to be kept occupied by tanks through the entire fight. Will use Adrenaline if he's up against a target who is faster in the turn order, so don't bother trying to stack overwhelm on him unless he's already tired out

Noble House Forces

Professional soldiers working on the payroll of one of the three Northern noble houses. Their patrols are a common sight and they protect supply caravans and the more well fortified towns and castles. Can be encountered through the Noble War, Holy War or by just being hostile to one of the houses through one of several ways.

Polehammers and billhooks are capable of destroying most mid tier armor in a single attack, rendering their targets vulnerable to attacks from the rest of the formation or killing them outright Backstabber means they will have an considerably easier time hitting enemies surrounded by a footmen shield wall. Readily uses repel to protect their vulnerable units and hook to draw enemies into being surrounded, if they have the appropriate weapon. Tactics Since they have no shields and have mediocre armor at best, they are very vulnerable to all attacks that can reach them Focus on those with billhooks and polehammers over those with pikes. Attempt to shoot them with your archers and crossbowmen if the enemy group has no arbelasters of their own that will demand your attention. Attempt to disrupt or break through the footmen in front of them, after the billmen fall the encounter becomes far less dangerous. Attempt to flank them after the engagement has started so there are no footmen to guard them there. The Split skill of two handed swords and Bardiches can be used to great effect.
