Buying in moderation is truly not within the realm of testing willpower. Now, a large order is a willpower test. A moderate order; insignificant. Remember, orders exceeding BP80 ship for free!

While six such Stradiots have already mustered out for the project, another two stands will find good service.

The Gendarmes, Knights, and Elmeti are the stars of the battlefield, but that's a few days a year.
