Ughuz theme

Originating from Borji and Tatongols they evolved into a force of their own. This Ughuz army list is constructed from the rich cultural and historical details of their background lore, specifically focusing on their mastery of Explosive Powder and their nomadic heritage.

 

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ARMY - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Their General (Sultan or Vizier) and 4 Core Units, must make up at least 40% of the army total value. Furthermore the army must be at least 50% Cavalry.

The Ughuz are the "foremost wielders" of explosive powder and have "Stoicheian Fervour": Gunpowder weapons (Handguns, Cannons) do not explode on a natural 1. Instead, they just fail to fire, reflecting superior Ughuz engineering.

Stoicheian’s Breath Engines are inspired by lost technology. These are experimental, high-risk/high-reward flamethrowers or steam-powered rams.
