[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5446483, member: 57383"] Yes, I wondered about doing something like that too. Something like this: [B]Captain:[/B] Solitary, patrol (1-4 plus 5-20 2nd to 4th level fighters; 1d% (round down) mounted on warhorses), lance (2-12 mounted on undead steeds plus 10-40 2nd-4th level fighters mounted on warhorses) or host (as lance plus plus 50-100 1st to 3rd level humanoid infantry) [B]Colonel:[/B] Solitary, entourage (1 plus 1-4 fiend knight captains on undead steeds, and 1-3 4th level spellcasters) or command staff (1 plus 2-8 fiend knight captains on undead steeds plus 2-5 4th level spellcasters and 5-20 2nd to 4th level fighters mounted on warhorses) [B]General:[/B] Solitary, entourage (1 plus 1-3 fiend knight colonels and 2-8 fiend knight captains on undead steeds, and 1-4 8th level spellcasters ) or command staff (1 plus 1-4 fiend knight colonels and 2-20 fiend knight captains on undead steeds plus 2-5 8th level spellcasters and 5-20 5th to 8th level fighters mounted on warhorses) [B]Marshall:[/B] Solitary, entourage (1 plus 1-3 fiend knight generals mounted on nightmares, and 2-8 fiend knight colonels on undead steeds, and 1-4 12th level spellcasters mounted on nightmares) or command staff (1 plus 1-4 fiend knight generals and 2-5 12th level spellcasters mounted on nightmares, plus 5-20 fiend knight colonels and 5-20 fiend knight captains on undead steeds) [B]Description:[/B] Fiend knights are often in command of large numbers of soldiers, mostly 1st-3rd level humanoid warriors.
