The Hunting Hounds are often led by Hunt Masters, warriors mounted on warhorses who guide them towards the foe. The Hunt Master is bought as an upgrade in the same way as a unit Champion and is treated as a Champion in all respects, ie, he cannot be singled out as a target for missile weapons, may issue and accept challenges, etc. Note that as long as any Hounds remain alive the Hunt Master will be restricted to their Movement of 7, even though his horse would normally be able to move faster. He also benefits from the Hounds' Relentless Chase rule.
