Ok, this is just to introduce the bad guys to the rest, kind of a reference source.
Oprezki (or Opreski) -
The Oprezki are the vanguard or the Other's army, it's principle raiding force and the means through which the Others terrorize.
Who are the Others? Little is known save that they presumably come from the South, somewhere below the Plague Jungles to the South. Little is known about the Others save that they are supposedly a relatively new force to those lands bringing with them new weapons and ideologies of rule. It is believed that the Others subscribe to a nihilistic ideology that justifies the destruction of the weak and the empowerment of the strong. Although often fluent in local languages, their native language is a harsh tongue with a virtually illegible written language.
The Oprezki were used primarily to terrorize. They use and raise horses for quick movement throughout the lands and are ruthless in their destruction. Communitites that resist are usually wiped out, their residents either disappearing, their bodies left high crucified, or their heads left in piles of skulls. THey usually attack suddently, at night.
The Oprezki are usually lightly armed and armored, riding horses that are also lightly armored. Weapons are usually include rifles, carbines, pistols, swords and lances. Larger groups are known to bring with them light mortars, rocket launchers and machineguns.
Oprezki units are usually organized as such-
Troop = 10 riders (1 will be a sniper)
5 Troops = 1 company
2 Companies = 1 Column (in addition a column will normally include a weapons/engineer squad with three mortars and machineguns) (abotu 120 men)
5 Columns = 1 regiment (4 regular and 1 lancer/rifle column) = 600 men
2 regiments = 1 brigade (1200 men)
3 brigades = 1 division (3,600 men)
