** Amadician pikes **"Stolid Amadician pikemen ... breastplates striped horizontally in the colors of the regiments they were attached to ..." <TPoD: 24, 457, A Time for Iron> formed part of the Seanchan defensive against Rand in TPoD, together with Taraboners and Altarans. In KoD, Amadician pikemen appear in breastplates painted with horizontal bars of yellow, green and blue, the same as that of their Taraboner compatriots, and matching the striped armour worn by their Seanchan officer <KoD: 7, 197, A Cold Medallion>. Jordan further notes that Amadician pikes are long, and bows much shorter than those of the Two Rivers. Off-duty, Amadician pikemen wear blue coats with green-striped collars. <KoD: 7, 197, A Cold Medallion> We have no information on the dress of these infantry prior to their role as Seanchan auxiliaries. |
