Iksha's Triads (Eshin Triads)

are a Regiment of Renown melee infantry unit introduced in Total War: Warhammer II with The Shadow and the Blade.
== Recruitment ==
* Recruited with: Regiments of Renown Recruitment panel
== Description ==
Some Black Skaven, such as those within Clan Eshin, are trained in the martial arts and tactics of their clan, combining the speed of their smaller kin with brawn seldom found amongst the ratmen.
Only the most devout apprentices of Clan Eshin ascend to the rank of Triad. Well-drilled and deadly, these warriors are a versatile alternative to their Clanrat and Stormvermin brethren and are best utilised behind the front ranks, excelling at exploiting gaps and weaknesses in enemy lines. While their armour is not the strongest, Triads make up for it with their covert abilities. Equipped with smoke-filled Concealment Bombs, they can stalk their opponents and strike from unexpected directions with their poisoned Guandao spears.

== Strategy ==
The dopplegang ability is very useful for confusing foes or blunting the charge of an enemy. Even though the clones don't deal damage they can obstruct an enemy or simply waste their fatigue by forcing them to fight. Given that Skaven have no real cavalry, the clones can be a good way of preventing enemy units from getting onto your missiles or artillery. On top of that, this unit of Triads is ferocious in a fight, especially against large units. However, they remain somewhat delicate and cannot handle multiple foes at once.
