These are the strongest, bravest and most ferocious men of the tribe, proficient in all forms of combat.
Overview
Members of a Warrior Society are the tribal equivalent of professional soldiers. The practiced and deadly men in the tribe, they have a position of great power. They provide military leadership and war chiefs are chosen from their ranks, to keep discipline, organise hunting parties and oversee ceremonies.
Warrior societies quickly gained a reputation for unrelenting ferociousness. They would literally tether themselves to one spot on a battlefield, and not move until the battle was over. They would battle against any enemy that came at them and never even consider retreat. They were skilled with a number of weapons including the tomahawk and the war club.
Details
The missile foot troops of the Native Americans, Warrior Societies cannot stand up to the disciplined morale and firepower of regular line infantry. However, they provide much-needed ranged support for melee troops, and are good in the melee themselves. This combined with their stamina and ability to hide, makes Warrior Societies versatile and agile warriors.
