Editing Tarpit (section)

===[[Empire|The Empire]]===

* Spearmen: Cheapest empire models, although there isn't much more to say about them. They get the usual extra rank.

* Swordsmen: These cost a tiny bit more than the spearmen but get +1 WS and a shield, meaning both an armor save and parry save. 

* Greatswords: The elite of Empire infantry: full plate armor, stubborn and room for a magic banner. Their great weapons mean they can dish out a decent amount of damage as well. These come at roughly twice the cost of the above 2.

* Flagellant Warband: Unbreakable, frenzy, and if you allow some of them to cut their own hearts out as an offering to Sigmar the remaining models can get some nice buffs. No armor however, and the buffs are mainly on the offensive side of the spectrum. Not the very definition of a tarpit but they'll keep their opponent busy.
