History
Because of this, Centurions are best used as scouts and deployed in missions where speed is essential. This allows them to run around the flanks of enemies and reveal hidden troops to their allies. Centurions also carry heavy weaponry, but their weapons are usually used in a defensive manner to ward off infantry and vehicles. Despite their attributes, they are less common than Praetorian Pattern Knights, though almost all Knight Houses still keep a few Centurion detachments.[1]
