Combrogion Samonii

Camula (Champion)

This role is taken by the leader of the army. In Eschec, it is expected that the Camula's army will protect them, and thus the Camula has limited movement abilities.

Ambacta (Chief Retainer)

This role is taken by the Camula's chief retainer. If the Camula dies, they take executive power. They act on behalf of the Camula, and have almost equal power. They have the most mobility in Eschec along with the Arubiana, starting from the same square. Only one is allowed to be deployed at a time, and switches must be made otherwise.

Arubiana (Chief Tiller)

The Arubiana is often the adviser, healer, priest, or confidant of the Camula. They may be in charge of provisions, or a dedicated healer/tactician. They are sometimes swapped in role with the Ambacta, but otherwise are meant to go where they are needed most, whether close to the edges or the centre of the battle.

Vergena (Chief Catubodua)

The Vergena (translating literally to "bold daughter") is the deputy leader of the active forces. They answer to the Ambacta and have a more direct relationship with the Catuboduoi. They have similar movement spans to the Arubiana, able to transit quickly but only over short distances.

Eicona (Idol Bearer)

The Eicona is in charge of the fellowship's egregore, namely their spiritual and physical presence. They are often a head priest or divine magician of some sort, this is an appointment of deep religious prestige. They are often tasked with casting AOE or remote spells to ensure the entire unit remains in sync and status-free.

Gorheol (Sun Bearer)

The Gorheol is the rallying force of the fellowship, and like the Eicona, is responsible for overseeing the energetic and spiritual movement of the battle. They have a higher range of movement, with some restrictions, allowing them to have a melee function when needed.

Celydd (Keeper of Secrets)

The Celydd works as the secondary rallying force, however they are focused less on offence and move on support and provisions. They also act as the unit treasurer and manager of the supply chain. Their range of movement is similar to the Gorheol and they often work in tandem.

Sencatua (Elder Catubodua)

The Sencatua is a veteran Catubodua who works as support for the Catuboduoi. They have a wide range of movement as they are often responsible for on-the-spot changes in tactics and adhoc strategy, however, they often try to avoid direct confrontation.

Canvuna (Chief Boundary-walker)

The Canvuna is a veteran, typically a magician or healer, who is in charge of monitoring the boundaries of the battlefield. They keep an eye out for blind spots in the formation, and support the active fighters with the Sencatua.

Catubodua (Battle Maid)

The Catubodua are the main active infantry in the unit, eight of which are played at the start of the game. They rely on the commands and influences of their tacticians and supporters in order to navigate the terrain and
