Adds a new sub-class to the Desert Rider mercenary.
Why It's Good For The Game
The move away from deft, dual blade fighters toward a more static shield based combat style has caused a mixed reaction amongst players with Desert Rider characters. To ensure everyone can play their character in a style that suits them, I've separated the class into two archetypes.
Janissaries, mace-and-shield wielding frontliners. They have decreased mobility, but heavier weaponry and protection including a chain coif.
Blade Dancers, who are more fitting for a 'scout/skirmish' role. They are better at climbing, sneaking etc. and wield swords and daggers. They do not get a shield, nor the chain coif, and are less physically imposing than janissaries though retain an edge through their mobility.
This is the loadout for the janissary which includes the additions of the mace/coif.
