Legendary Names3

Remembered by Number is the honour of a nameless soldier — a Krieg Grenadier or Conscript known to the regiment only by the numerals stencilled on his coat. When this fighter is taken Out of Action, the gang immediately gains a bonus to its next post-battle replacement roll, and one friendly Conscript may make a free ranged attack: the number falls, and the next takes it up. But he earns no experience of his own and can never be given a personal skill or advance — a number does not learn, and his legend belongs to the Korps rather than the man.

The Marshal Who Took the Fortress is a named siege-master, remembered for a wall that fell to him. Once per battle he may issue his Into the Guns! Order to the entire gang at once, rather than to a single fighter or group, and every friendly Krieg fighter makes the free Move-and-shoot together. But he does not know how to give ground: he may never voluntarily end a Move further from the nearest enemy than he began it, and he will not learn.

The Watchmaster Who Held to the Last is a named line-holder, the anchor a Krieg formation dresses itself against. While he is on the board, friendly Krieg within six inches that did not move this round cannot be shifted by Knockback or Blast and shrug off the first Flesh Wound they suffer each round — the line holds where it stands. But he is the anchor, not the spearhead: he may never deploy further forward than the rearmost third of his gang, and may never make a charge.
