Command Cards: Richard of Cornwall 'King of the Romans'
I really can't imagine where I got this creative burst from but after a year of procratinating and avoiding these cards and illustrations I've just been seized with enthusiasm. This is my imagining of the King's brother, Richard Earl of Cornwall and King of the Romans. He has command of the central ward.
Apart from his division breaking on the day and his having been ignominiously bailed up in the windmill, we have not a lot to go on for what attributes he might have had on the field.
I've decided to make him cautious in command. He was known to have rebelled against his brother previously but clearly stood by him during the Montfortian rebellion - possibly due more to anmimosity toward Lord Simon than devotion to his brother. Perhaps he was present more for form's sake and appearances than heartfelt enthusiasm?
I've taken the Cautious Special Rule from Black Powder commander attribute options.
