Overview
The Fire Keepers are hardened warriors, honoured by the Iroquois. Thundering into battle armed with muskets and tomahawks, the Onondaga are useful for quickly reinforcing isolated units and taking on troublesome skirmishers. The fires of war burn bright in their souls and bellies!
As the Fire Keepers of the Iroquois Confederacy, the Onondaga were responsible for gathering the Grand Council of the Iroquois. They opened and closed the councils, and sanctioned the decisions arrived at by the Council chiefs. The Onondaga were also Keepers of the Wampum: the Wampum belts were historical records of the Iroquois’ traditions, rituals and events. Onondaga remains the capital of the Iroquois Confederacy to this day.
Details
Onondaga Fire Keepers are a unique unit available only to the Iroquois Confederacy in the Warpath Campaign. They are a Missile Cavalry unit capable of unleashing devastating volleys upon enemy troops. Their impressive speed and stamina means that they can cover ground quickly, allowing them to support areas of the battlefield where help is needed. They can also handle themselves in melee to an extent, if supported by other cavalry or infantry units. However they should not be used on a frontal attack on an enemy Line Infantry, as a volley could be devastating. Instead they should fire upon the enemy flanks and ten ride away to reload. Using this tactic the Onondaga Fire Keepers can maximise their effectiveness.
