Editing Scrollhammer: Imperial Legion (section)

====Imperial Knights====

Imperial Knights are members of the knightly orders of Tamriel.  Though they are technically not a part of the Imperial Legion, and enjoy independence from it, the group is often called into battle on the Legion's behalf.  Normally the blessed knights are only called when the need is dire- such as during the Oblivion Crisis, or one of many revolts.
It goes without saying that Imperial Knights are a cut above nearly all cavalry.  Each knight maintains their own personal arms and armor, most of which is nearly silver in color.  Long capes and billowing decorations flutter off the men and their mounts, more often then not embroidered detailing past deeds and exploits.  To their allies the sight of the Imperial Knights are rallying and joyful, to their enemies a sight to despair.

28 pts per model. Elite. Fight in Ranks, Cavalry, Imperial. 5-12 models per unit.  May only be joined by Independent Characters who are also riding Horses.

25mm x 50mm base.
