Bleaksword

Bleakswords

Bleakswords are the sword-armed wing of the Dark Elf Warrior class. [2a]

All Dark Elves are arrogant beyond tolerance, but Bleakswords far outstrip even other Naggarothi in this regard. Each believes himself to be the greatest warrior of his age, needless of aid and heedless of danger. [2a]

Weapons and Equipment

Bleakswords forsake the spear and the repeater crossbow, deeming the former a peasant's weapon and the latter a craven armament. Instead, they wield slender duelling blades that flash past an enemy's guard to slit his throat or pierce his heart.[2a]

  • 2nd Edition: Chainmail, Hand Weapon, Shield. May have Crossbow Pistol, Two-Handed Sword. [3a]
  • 3rd Edition: Hand Weapon, Light Armour and Shield, one regiment in an army may have a magical standard and instrument and Double Handed Weapons or Halberds. May have Musician, Standard Bearer. [1a]

Notes

In WFB 2nd, 3rd edition, they were called Warriors rather than Bleakswords. [1a][3a]
