Requires Fornost Garrison Level 2
Strong vs. Infantry
The soldiers of Fornost are the stalwart heavy infantry of Arnor, shaped by the legacy of Númenor in both training and arms. In the days of Elendil, at the height of the Northern Kingdom, these warriors were renowned across Middle-earth as the mightiest force of Men since the downfall of Númenor, bearing the light of the West into battle.
