| Rare Units are the most
powerful troops in the army, as well as those that are least in number. There
is a maximum number of Rare Units that can be fielded, and this varies with the size of
the army (see "Armies of Inisfail").
Famous companies of Dogs of War have on occasion fought
alongside the armies of Inisfail, such as the Giants of Albion. |

| 0-1 FIRBOLG |
Points/model: 40 |
Firbolg are gigantic men who stand 7-8 ft. tall and are massively muscled. They are called
Firbolg due to their ancient tradition of carrying a bag filled with relics of their
ancestors, momentos and treasures that define their clans. They are mighty warriors and
they are fiercely proud and loyal. Once they have given heir bond, it is never broken.
They live in the upland meadows raising the fierce mountain cattle and hunting and
trapping wild game. Their preferred weapon is a double-bitted axe or a massive spear. |
