[edit | edit source]Military
[edit | edit source]"The warriors of the Tiger Nomads are a fearless cavalry, lightly armored and unmatched as mounted archers. Small numbers of infantry are found in the permanent settlements. Their armies are similar in most respects to the other northern nomads, though women make up a higher proportion of the fighters and fighter-clerics among the Tiger Nomads."[1]
Publishing history
[edit | edit source]In the novel Master Wolf (1987) by Rose Estes, Yecha is identified as the capitol of the Wolf Nomads rather than Tiger Nomads[2] and described as cosmopolitan, urban city with a crowded warren of multi-level buildings,[3] which differs from its portrayal in other official game sources.
