While the archers are sent to each flank to thin their lines and crush the Swedish from all sides, King Valdemar and his personal guard ride on horseback into the fray to inspire his men and partake in the battle and all its glory.

He himself gathers a forces of 150 Riders and noblemen on horses and charges right down the middle, spreading even more panic as the main army follows right after.
