Sons of the Reik
From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum
The Sons of the Reik or the Altdorf Company of Honour are a famous regiment of the Empire. [1a][2a]
They are led by nobleman, traditionally the youngest son and their distintive trumpet sound when they go on campaign is known throughout their home city. [1a]
Notable
- Otto Helstein: Captain in 2522 IC. [1a]
Recruitment
They take soldiers from other regiments, selecting only the boldest and bravest from the watch or those that guard the walls. [1a] There are rumours however that its easier to buy one’s way in than earn it by spilling blood.[2a]
