Arbalétriers de la Compagnie Dorée (FR)

The Golden Company, the Free Cities’ most reliable mercenary company, offers several types of troops for hire, depending on the needs of the force they’re being procured for. One of the most popular choices is their crossbowmen. These sharp-eyed fighters never waste a shot, resolutely waiting until enemies have closed to within perfect range before unleashing their bolts (wasting shots is wasting money, after all). Their well-built, strong crossbows fire bolts that easily punch through enemy armor, especially at closer ranges. And like all Golden Company warriors, they will stay in the battle until the job’s done, almost never prematurely quitting the field. Anyone looking to bolster their forces’ ranged capabilities can get a bargain by hiring them.
