While the halflings do love the pleasures of life, they are willing to go to great lengths to protect those things from anyone they think might be trying to take them away. They will defend their own with a savagery and viciousness that have taken many by surprise – and to their fatal cost. They can be kind, gentle and generous, but equally cold, pragmatic, and utterly ruthless. Their trained bands of infantry are supported by packs of aralez-riding cavalry, while their engineering knowhow is on full display when the great Iron Beasts are unleashed into the enemy ranks.
