The Queensguard

The Queensguard are the main military force of the queens army. They are made up of members of all kinds from the Kingdom of Stilune, with many forging there beginnings in the War of Unification. They are led by Commander Tai Feng.   Within the main forces troops are split into one off three corps: the Infantry, the Scout or the Support corps.   The infantry corp is the most populated, and can be further broken down into the Spearmen, the Infantryman and the Archer. The spearmen are armed with spears and are trained in unit loyalty. this allows the spearmen to act more forcefully if another in there squad is injured. They are clad in leather armour. The Infantrymen are the battle line of the Queensguard, armed with a longsword and shield they stand bulwark to the forces that would oppose the queen. Much like the spearmen they are trained to work together, allowing for defensive positions to be easily taken. The last of the standard infantry are the archers, armed with longbows they often the first to engage an enemy. Again, they are trained in unit cohesion, in particular in the volley technique.   The scouts of the Queensguard are made up of two corps, the deep scout and the scout cavalry. Deep scouts are masters of terrain, allowing a larger force to ensure their passage is unhindered. Scout cavalry are horse based units that can use both bow and blade. They act as shock troops, charging smaller forces and crushing them before a volley of arrows from their archer allies finishes them off.   The support corp come in the form of medics and warmages. The medics of a force are often held within their own group and dispatched where and when needed. they are armed combatants, but focus diligently on their work. The warmages are often embedded within a squad, allowing for greater battlefield control. They are masters of blinding foes with fog spells and destroying emplacements with lightning.   These forces are usually placed into squads of 6-10 spearmen/infantrymen, 2-5 archers and a warmage. These squads are lead by sergeants, who rally and command. They are usually made up of common folk who show great prowess in leadership.   The queensguard also has three special forces, each lead by a general and holding power much greater than the normal military: Wyvern Riders, Blue Sorcerers  and Mithral Guard.
