Overview
Sometimes known as the Skandic Host, both for the wild and bloodthirsty tactics that were its preference as well as the primary recruiting ground of its warriors. The Host of Bone fought not to break the lines of a single army, but to crush the spirit of the foe entirely, seeking to find the weakness that almost all enemies hid and then cut it apart. Reavers without equal, they gave little credence to the noble ideals of civilised warfare and brought the most terrible weapons and tactics to the field of battle.[1]
In time, the Host would be reorganised into the six Wings of the Hexagrammaton.[1]
