The province of Reikland lies at the heart of the Empire and is a land long renowned for the discipline and loyalty of its people. Warriors drawn into the service of Reikland are held to a high standard of professionalism, eschewing the flamboyance of other provinces. For a Reiklander, sturdy armour and a reliable sword are more precious than silks and jewelled vestments. Grand Prince Siegfried of Reikland claims the vacant Imperial throne for himself, and the warriors of his land will do their utmost to see him crowned Emperor. Even if they aren't above making some coin for themselves in the process. A Reiklander is always pragmatic.

DESCRIPTION
______________________________________
Mercenary captains are seasoned professional warriors. A captain must have cunning as well as a good sword-arm to command a warband. Among mercenaries, it is the bold and ruthless who often succeed, men who care little for what they must do or who they must fight so long as they are paid. In the blighted ruins of Mordheim, such men can prosper and seize wealth beyond their most avaricious dreams.
