Sagittarum Custodes – Elite Ranged Infantry Proxy

Sagittarum-style Custodes fill a role elite armies often need: dependable shooting that doesn’t fold when touched. Where many Custodes units excel up close, Sagittarum bring steady ranged pressure while still being tough enough to hold ground. On the tabletop, they’re the unit you leave on an objective without worrying they’ll disappear the moment something looks at them. They’re commonly used to: Hold home or mid-board objectives Control firing lanes and deny movement Support melee units by softening targets first Apply pressure without committing your best melee pieces Because Custodes armies are small, every unit needs to contribute every turn. Sagittarum-style units do exactly that — they shoot, they score, and they don’t demand babysitting. Visually, they read clearly as ranged specialists, which helps opponents understand threat priorities and keeps the game flowing without constant reminders. Why players like units like this Not every problem needs a charge. Sometimes you just need something that sits still, shoots well, and refuses to die. Sagittarum units give Custodes lists that stability.
