	*'''Blades of Gan Jiang and Mo Ye:''' Counts as paired weapons; the wielder gains +1 to their To Hit and To Wound rolls. Also, successful enemy Armour and Ward saves must be re-rolled. Hm...it's pretty nice (and at least it doesn't take up all 100pts allowance you have) but since it is 65pts, it'll force you to take a fairly mono-build leader; and with the Warlord being a squishy human, you'll have to take great care about where you deploy and maneuver this guy. In other words: take these blades, and you'll effectively turn him into a glass cannon.		*'''Blades of Gan Jiang and Mo Ye:''' Counts as paired weapons; the wielder gains +1 to their To Hit and To Wound rolls.

	*'''Jade Sword of Feng Wu:''' Essentially makes the wielder an Elf. The wielder gains ASF and +1 to his Weapon Skill. It's okay, but for what it costs, you can probably get better. Meh, all around.		*'''Jade Sword of Feng Wu:''' Essentially makes the wielder an Elf. The wielder gains ASF and +1 to his Weapon Skill. It's okay, but for what it costs, you can probably get better.

	*'''Imperial Dragon Armour:''' Counts as Hvy. Armour. Enemy attacks suffer -1 to their To Wound rolls. The wearer also gains a 2+ Ward against Flaming Attacks...oh and it also allows the first unsaved wound to be discounted automatically. For 55pts this is decent.		*'''Imperial Dragon Armour:''' Counts as Hvy. Armour. Enemy attacks suffer -1 to their To Wound rolls.

	*'''Fist of Iron:''' Gives the bearer another point of Armour Save. He also gets +1 to his Strength for every rank his unit has (to a maximum of +3). If you keep him in a unit with ranks this comes down to a Giant Blade for 5 more points and +1 Armour. Keep in mind this ~~doesnt~~ take up a magic weapon slot, so combo them together for +6 str...		*'''Fist of Iron:''' Gives the bearer another point of Armour Save.

	*'''Jade Dragon Token:''' Wielder gains Regen (5+) and 3+ Ward against spells for 35pts. Long story short: put this on your Wu Jen Lord, not your Warlord (He needs a universal Ward save DAMN IT! (except when you use the previously mention cheese)).		*'''Jade Dragon Token:''' Wielder gains Regen (5+) and 3+ Ward against spells for 35pts.

	*'''Cui Dan's White Orb:''' Another high risk/reward item for magic users. This one gives the bearer +D3 to his Casting and +1 to Channeling. However, if the bearer miscasts he must roll 3D6 for the test and use the lowest two. This one doesn't have an option to not use so you'll constantly be in greater danger of having your Wu Jen Lord being sucked into the Warp. Both this and the brush basically have the same purpose; to increase the potency of your spellcaster and try to shut the enemy from nullifying it. It's arguable to which is better overall; the brush automatically gives Irresistible with the 'substantial' chance of suffering for it while the Orb gives a small increase to your potency for far fewer points. And whilst with the Brush you have a greater chance of having miscasts, you suffer the worse with miscasts when you have the Orb. It's really your preference which you choose.		*'''Cui Dan's White Orb:''' Another high risk/reward item for magic users. This one gives the bearer +D3 to his Casting and +1 to Channeling.

	*'''Gong of Tsao Taso:''' Enchanted item with a one-use bound spell at Level 5. Enemy warmachines, chariots, unique units and units in buildings suffer D6 S6 hits within 12" of the bearer; while other enemy unit types take panic tests. Eh...unless you have a spammy Dwarf artillery enemy (which you'll have a hard time getting to...if you can even get there before getting shot down), an enemy with lots of chariots (maybe SOMEONE actually uses chariots...I actually haven't seen any being used) or lots of occupied structures (can't remember the last time occupied buildings were used in Fantasy), you'll find almost no use for this. Panic is fine but it just doesn't compensate for this being forty points. This just feels like a miss...it's a fluffy one but little reason to actually use it.		*'''Gong of Tsao Taso:''' Enchanted item with a one-use bound spell at Level 5.

	*'''Standard of Cathay:''' For one hundred points you get the following: the bearer units gaining Stubborn, friendly units within 12" getting Immune to Panic and enemies in base contact suffer Strength 3 hits with Flaming (these count towards the combat resolution). It's a fairly nice banner...but...it just costs too much. In your 2,000 point games...no. No way. If you're doing a large Apocalypse-esque game...GO FOR IT! Get a line of Imperial Infantry before the enemy horde and HOLD THE LINE!		*'''Standard of Cathay:''' For one hundred points you get the following: the bearer units gaining Stubborn, friendly units within 12" getting Immune to Panic and enemies in base contact suffer Strength 3 hits with Flaming (these count towards the combat resolution).

	*'''Sky Banner of the Lofty Heavens:''' A one-use banner that gives a unit fly at the beginning of the Movement Phase for the rest of the turn. This does have great potential. Put this on cavalry, pop it and use it to get over a large, impassible terrain piece into your enemies more juicy units...but its cost is a bit much. Bring this only if you know you can properly use it without wasting fifty points or leaving your troops stranded without help.		*'''Sky Banner of the Lofty Heavens:''' A one-use banner that gives a unit fly at the beginning of the Movement Phase for the rest of the turn.

	*'''Repeater Crossbowmen:'''"FUCK YOU DARK ERVES!" -Cathayan Bowyer, probably. Also cheap at 6 points, they come stock with repeater crossbows, having an 18" range, S3, and multiple shots(3). Not much else to say but move up and throw some dakka down. Good unit.		*'''Repeater Crossbowmen:'''"FUCK YOU DARK ERVES!" -Cathayan Bowyer, probably. Also cheap at 6 points, they come stock with repeater crossbows, having an 18" range, S3, and multiple shots(3). Not much else to say but move up and throw some dakka down. Good unit.
			**Note at 6 points per model, they're cheaper than the 7 ppm you'd pay for Imperial Infantry with crossbows.

	*'''Dragon Lancers:''' Your entry-level heavy cav, they're no empire or Bretonnia knights, and they're certainly no chaos knights, but they do have some interesting options. Also the only core choice with leadership 8. They start at 16 points with heavy armor and halberds and with barding you'll get a 3+, bringing you to 18 points. You can give them short bows for a point if you want a bit of extra mobile ranged fire. The most interesting option is fire lances for 2 points each. While only single-use, in the first round of combat the Dragon Lancers can fight with an extra attack that is S4, flaming, and armor piercing (1). Note that despite the name it is NOT a lance, and does NOT replace the halberd. Whether the extra two points a model is worth it for a one use handgun shot is up to you, but it will make that first charge extra painful.		*'''Dragon Lancers:''' Your entry-level heavy cav, they're no empire or Bretonnia knights, and they're certainly no chaos knights, but they do have some interesting options.
