2-1-1: Tell me about the scouts.
a: The main emphasis in scout training is on physical fitness and basic
survival skills. Which by the look of things, you somehow missed out on.
Still, Those are just the prerequisites for combat training. However, some
still choose to concentrate on tasks that just require good scouting skills.
This is the work of scouts, messengers or spies. Do you need a minute to let
that sink into your thick skull or are you ready to continue?

2-1-1-2: What are the tasks of those who are scouts?
a: Scouts usually are used to create a vanguard that goes before the legion.
They investigate the outlying area and report possible ambushes to the

cannon fodder and the rest of the legion isn't caught up in some kinda trap.

2-1-2: Tell me about the legionaries.
2-1-2: Tell me about the legionaries.
a: The major emphasis in training a legionary is that they need to know the
code of militaristic behavior by heart and they are taught the common fighting
principles. While the common legionary is nothing but a mere pawn in war, a
large number of trained soldiers are a necessary tool for any commander.
Kharim's legion is known for it's great number of legionaries and hussars. At
their heart, every member of the Legion of Kharim is a legionary.

2-1-2-1-1: What are hussars?
a: Hussars are the Legions mounted troops. They are most often used to perform
flanking charges against enemy infantry. They are also extremely useful in
attacking the enemies ranged units as they are able to cover ground quickly.
Most Hussars prefer to ride fire drakes or manticores.

2-1-3: Tell me about the vandals.
2-1-3: Tell me about the vandals.
a: Vandals form an elite division in the Legion of Kharim. They are an
effective group of brutal veterans who excel in spreading chaos. They sew
terror everywhere they go, ravaging settlements, desecrating fields of crop,
and destroying what is left. They are widely respected by both their allies
and even their most hated enemies. They are taught to be merciless, deceitful,
and do whatever it takes to turn the tide of battle in their favor. Vandals
are split into three subdivisions called mercenaries, skirmishers and
cataphracts. Not that you will ever attain the skill, much less maintain the
level of discipline that is required to become a Vandal.

2-1-3-1: Tell me about mercenaries?
2-1-3-1: Tell me about mercenaries?
a: Mercenaries make their living by slaying their enemies and looting the
bleeding corpses. The vandals in Kharim's army who become mercenaries have a
relationship with Kharim's legion that is much the same as privateers have
with the king. We tolerate their actions because they hurt our enemy. Besides,
that sort of violence is the type that Kharim appreciates most. The color of
blood is the same, whether you spill it on field of combat or in a back alley
for a purse of gold.
   
2-1-3-2: Tell me about skirmishers?
2-1-3-2: Tell me about skirmishers?
a: Skirmishers are commonly used to drive enemy legions into disarray before
the main combat begins. Vandals are a huge morale booster for newer
legionaries. The chaos and casualties they cause while deteriorating the
morale of their enemies makes it easier for the legionaries to sweep in and
slaughter the opposition. Some flankers also act as skirmishers,
counter-attacking the opposing skirmishers that the enemy has sent.

2-1-3-3: Tell me about cataphracts? 
a: A Cataphract is an elite, heavily armored version of the hussar. They are a
fearsome presence on the battlefield, wielding massive weapons and riding
ancient chaos drakes or deadly chimeras that have been fitted with heavy plate
barding. The Cataphract is most commonly used as an assault force, tearing
into enemy lines and destroying their formations.
