'Nords - Artisan Series Female Jarl'

Produktbeschreibung

'Within the lore of Nord society, there lies a title that often belies the true power and resources of its bearer - the title of Jarl. Just as the word Lord can encompass a wide spectrum of individuals in the southern lands, so too can the title of Jarl encompass vastly different leaders within the Nord society. In the southern coastal regions of Mannheim, where the climate is milder and the sea offers its bounties through both raiding and fishing, a Jarl may rule over no more than a single prosperous town or village. Despite their modest domain, these Jarls possess the means to command a standing fighting force numbering over a hundred hardened raiders and huskarls. In times of dire need, this force can be doubled or even tripled, demonstrating the adaptability and resourcefulness of the southern Jarls. Conversely, in the deep and unforgiving north, where only small communities of few people can be sustained, a Jarls available manpower shrinks dramatically. In these harsh lands, it is not uncommon for a single Jarl and their hand-picked chosen warriors to roam over vast expanses, tracking outlaws and predators, and safeguarding their fragile communities. The disparity in resources and manpower is further influenced by a critical factor - ones command of ships. The ability to entice warriors with the promise of plunder and the income generated by successful raids grants southern Jarls a distinct advantage. They often have enough warriors at their disposal to commit a significant portion of their forces to raiding year-round without compromising the efficiency of their settlements other operations. The spoils of successful raids not only provide income but also elevate a Jarls prestige, attracting even more eager warriors to willingly join their ranks. In the realm of gameplay, Jarls emerge as tacticians and masters of raids. They lead their warbands into battle with a formidable mix of human infantry, brutes, and mighty Jotnars, showcasing a well-balanced, aggressive force that exerts a dominant presence on the battlefield. These characters are essential to any Nord Army List, ensuring a strong early presence and bringing their strategic brilliance to bear in the heat of battle.
