As such, when a unit of Reiksguard Knights takes to battle, it will typically form up proudly in the centre of the Empire battle line, the better to inspire the common soldiery and reassure them that the blessing of the Emperor is with them. Although few in number, the Reiksguard Knights are the most important part of the Emperor's army, for they are a symbol of the Empire's nobility and martial might. This omnibus contains three novels Hammers of Ulric, Reiksguard and Knight of the Blazing Sun and a collection of Knights of Manaan short stories. They ride fine destriers to war and the suits of gleaming plate armour in which they are clad are emblazoned with symbols of allegiance to the Emperor. And, in the city of Middenheim, only a company of the Knights of the White Wolf stand between the city and total annihilation. As befits their prestigious role and elite status, the Knights are equipped with the very finest weapons and suits of armour available. As an Elector Count, the Emperor also has direct command of his own provincial army - which in the case of Karl Franz are the regiments of Altdorf and the Reikland - but it is the Knights of the Reiksguard that form the symbol of his military strength.
The Reiksguard Knights are the personal army of the Emperor. Well-armoured and resplendent, the Knights deliver a fierce and destructive charge.
