Tofangchi

a_tofangchi

The Tofangchi are the musketeers of the empire. Although firearms have been in use before already, their presence has been highly irregular as many of the Persian military prefer to use their traditional weapon of bow and arrow. The regiments of the Tofangchi aim to change this as they are trained in the usage of the modern weaponry.
