Added DiffLines:

** The Dothraki possess these as well, though they do not use them effectively as their best archers just join in the pell-mell head on charge characteristic of Dothraki tactics. Part of the reformed Dothraki troop tree is correcting this issue.
* IFightForTheStrongestSide: A longstanding Dothraki cultural tradition. Allyia uses this to get the captured Dothraki to sign up with Wei Gang.

* ChurchMilitant: The Red Pilgrims, liberated Dothraki prisoners who have mistaken Wei Gang for the earthly incarnation of the Lord of Light. While without any proper weapons or training they receive a buff anytime a gunpowder weapon is used near them or when Wei Gang does something heroic.
