While not as numerous as their Warlock Knight counterparts, these footmen are volunteers in their boyar's druzhina retinue, fiercely loyal to their Palischian motherland, and are better-equipped than Warlock Knight jacks. If their officers are killed, the footmen will likely charge the enemy in the hopes of forcing them into a rout.
