AlteaDeo Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 yeah, just imagine, only with conscription, how big an army could be in an entire universe.... :)Feudalistic armies are based on mercenaries, not conscripts. Conscripts fight for their country, but for one family?rgiht :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMA_1 Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 err they are based on conscripts. Taking all of a families citizens and making them fight. there are mercenaries but they are called auxillaries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard3000 Posted September 11, 2002 Share Posted September 11, 2002 *Forgets how to use hiddentext.*Essentially, the Sardaukar were mercenaries. They're imprisoned on a prison world where the planet itself trains them. Theya re then offered a kings riches to fight for the Emperor's cause.

Anathema Posted September 12, 2002 Author Share Posted September 12, 2002 Vanguard, where did you get that from? Sardaukar may have been stupid during Shadams rule, but weren't they yet unquestionably loyal to him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caid Ivik Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 Sardaukars aren't prisoners, maybe their children. They are trained from birth. They learn how to fight and loyalty for Emperor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
