Grand Cathay Defenders Of The Great Bastion
This comprehensive box set features two Astromancers—one on foot and one mounted—who harness Yang and Yin elemental magic to strengthen your forces. Each comes with a bird-headed familiar, providing mystical support alongside your Jade Warriors and Jade Lancers. Together, they form a powerful magical core for your army.
Bolstering your ranks are 30 peasant soldiers armed with warbows or long spears, conscripted from local villages to defend their homeland. Though less disciplined than professional troops, their numbers and determination make them a formidable force on the battlefield. They provide essential infantry depth to your formation.
Ranged firepower comes from eight Crane Gun Teams and 12 Iron Hail Gunners, each excelling at different combat ranges. Crane Gun Teams deliver devastating fire from extreme distance behind protective tower shields, while Iron Hail Gunners close ranks with their powerful blunderbusses to shred enemy formations. Together, they ensure your army dominates both near and far engagements.
