ARMY BONUS
"No quarter was asked..." - Easterling models receive +1 Courage when their force is Broken. Additionally, once per game, in Scenarios in which a die is rolled to see when the game ends, so long as there is at least one Easterling Hero model alive and on the battlefield, the Easterling player may choose to have the dice re-rolled if the Scenario ends before they wish it to. If there is an Easterling contingent as part of an army that contains an alliance, this Army Bonus is only in effect if 25% or more of the total models in the army have the Easterling keyword.
