Empire Jaegers

by Eli Arndt

Jaegers are hunters and woodsmen drawn from mountian villages to assist the armies of the Empire.  Putting their expert skills to use, they skirt the edges of the battlefirld, ambushing enemy units, taking advantage of terrain and picking off stragglers.  They seldom engage in frontal attacks, choosing to stick to their sneaky ways.

An army may include a single unit of Jaegers
