Serbians

Faction Overview	Strategic Overview	History

The Serbians have the Power of Prestige.

Serbia is a militarist faction that is proud of the old ways of spears, on both horse and foot. These in turn are further reinforced by the cavalry in the Byzantine style, and later by halberdiers, heavy crossbow, and a number of mercenaries, including the famous Almogavers of Catalan Spain and ubiquitous hussars.
