They usually have a CR 1/8 and use the spear.

They answer to their Sergeant or higher authorities if no sergeant is available.

A Guardsmen, also known as "A guard of the Empire" is a trained commoner that finished the base training and thus has an official title that binds them to the army. Guardsmen do not have to be active to hold their title. Most Guardsmen are people who finished their base training and now live their lives but at any time they can be drafted again. They get better equipment since they know how to use it.

They are the bulk of any imperial army.

Regiments

Cavalryman

The Empire has a decent cavalry also known as the imperial outriders. They are decently armored and function as a melee shock cavaly, putting the massive front line of an empire army to good use.

Bolter

The Bolter, also known as "Bolzen", are, together with the imperial artillery, the most dangerous part of the empire army, some people would say. They are the "Rangers" of the army and use heavy Crossbows they can fire in rapid succession. They might not have the range of longbows but that's what the artillery has to deal with. Therefore they are devastating since the equipment and training allows them to shoot devastating rounds at any enemy.

Scout

A group of lightly armored and stealthy units with the purpose of keeping any army of the empire informed about anything important before a fight. They are lightly armored and use light crossbows. Their survival skill and perception is what makes them important.

Pikeman

Food soldiers with the expertise to bring down large foes ant to stop charges. They are deploeyd to stop enemy cavallry and mosters in close combat. They are medium armored, use a pike and are medium armored.

Artillerist

These individuals are experts when it comes to siege engines and creating those. Some Dwarfs might have "Stringer" siege weapons, but compared to the empire, they can not keep up with the speed and efficiancy these troups provide. Together with the "Bolters", the Artillerist's are feared as the most destructive force of the empire. Aside from the mighty Tribuchet with it's insane range and siege capability's, the empire is known for their strong Ballista, the best in the word. The secret lies not in the weapon, but in the team that perfected it's reloading time and this it's fire rate. In addition to that, the empire created weapons that easily can be rebuild or constructed. A fully prepared team of artellerists can build a Ballista from scratch within a week, a Tribuchet can be build within 2 weeks - if the resources are available.
