Units marked* are alternates. This represents the ability of Hun HC to deploy with their LC. One may purchase any combination of these units not to exceed a total of two units.

**The Alans are not given bows because they chose not to use them, relying upon the lance.

This army represents the Huns who conquered the Alans and drove the Goths across the Danube. They successfully raided the Sassanid and East Roman Empires. Reputedly because of their powerful bows, they were a virtuoso horse archer army. Although they undoubtedly reigned over peoples who could provide infantry the Huns do not seem to have used infantry in their armies.
