Research evidence

Original researched interpretation; balance requires playtesting. Generic portraits are not canonical likenesses. Ability packages do not automatically grant SPAs or SCAs.

Documented · high confidence: The Horses value cooperation between warrior subcastes and integrate conventional arms instead of treating them as universally inferior. The 3067 update provides the contemporary force and conflict context. Sources: field-manual-updates, field-manual-crusader-clans

Inference · medium confidence: Original larger-force Coordinated Combined Arms interpretation. Exact priority rankings, transitions, initiative sequencing, support spending and regrouping thresholds are authored choices, not published faction rules. Sources: field-manual-updates, field-manual-crusader-clans, aces

Inference · high confidence: The local SPA/SCA and any published subcommand abilities are thematic research references only. No abilities, equipment, support, salvage, rewards or political effects are automatically granted. Sources: hotspots-local, aces
