The Black Shields
First Cohort of the Second Daos of the Nineth Imperial Legion
Heavy Infantry of the Manjet Legion


New description coming soon.

Secrets :
The Black Shields are the Elite Heavy Infantry Centuri of the Manjet Legion. Wearing blackened heavy scalemail armor and Corinthian style helmets with black plumes and carrying their long spears and large tower shields they form in a terrific sight in battle as their spear and shield wall advances with discipline the Black Shields are the Legion’s best example of efficiency. They usually form in a wide line, with one Domanus in each side of their Daekin’s Command Manus. Each of these Domanus is backed by another. Forming a four lines deep and forty five columns strong block of men, discipline, courage and steel.

The Black Shields are an offensive Centuri, preferring to engage the enemy where it hides than sitting back and watch it gain terrain. The advance of this Centuri isn’t as fast as that of other units but it is steady to avoid breaches in the line. Once they contact with the enemy the first line locks their shields and the second closes in to avoid having the formation pushed back by the enemy. With their position set they start thrusting and piercing the enemy while advancing. They push the enemy back and thrust, push them again and thrust. By doing this repetitively they make sure their formation is secured and that the enemy suffer casualties in throngs.

Although many other Centuris use this strategy the Black Shields have slightly changed it. Their formation doesn’t should a parallel line to the enemy’s. They for a slight triangle with their leader in the center, pushing forward to break through the enemy while the Domanus on both sides push and thrust. This enables the Black Shields to possess a great offensive power and if they manage to pierce the enemy unit and divide it in two, to the two reserve Domanus to move through the gap and encircle the enemy. This only works of course if there are no more enemies aside of the group they are fighting. If there are the two reserve Domanus will form in the same way the first line ones and charge in.

Depending on the situation the Black Shields may also use their sword to achieve the same results they do with their long spears.



The Black Shields’ equipment (aside of the standard Heavy Infantry equipment) consists of:
  • Heavy Scalemail going down to the knee
  • Corinthian style helmet with dark plumes
  • Backpack containing all the Legionnaire’s belongings and carrying all the survival equipment needed in a campaign (i.e.: combat rations)
  • One long dagger

*All armors, shields, helmets, sword sheaths and cloaks are blackened.
**Soldiers can carry the symbol of the White Wolf on them if they want, it must not stand out much in their uniform.
