Hammerhalians prize martial ability and stubborn resolve and its standing armies are amongst the largest and best-equipped available to the God-King. The line infantry of the city's [[Freeguilds]] are known as the [[Goldjackets]] who are famed for their fighting ability and unwillingness to retreat. Each of the city's seven military guilds is descended from one of the ancient tribes that [[Sigmar]] brought with him to the Realm of Heavens before the [[Gates of Azyr]] were closed and are fiercely proud of their heritage, carrying artefacts [[City Banner|banners]] of rare provenance woven from [[Hyshian]] [[suncloth]] and stitched with the skin and bones of martyrs that are carried into battle to inspire the soldiers. In the only instance if these colours falling into enemy hands, the [[Griffon Spears]] [[Freeguild]] embarked upon a suicidal cavalry charge against a [[greenskin]] horde eight times their number known as the Forlorn Charge. The Twin-tailed City can deploy almost any specialist formation ranging from handgunners and swordsmen backed up by all manner of auxiliary formations, chosen according to the needs of the campaign including [[Shadow Warriors]], fleets of [[Gyrobombers]] or the magical war machines of the [[Collegiate Arcane]]. {{Fn|13a}}
An entire district of Hammerhal Aqsha was transformed into the [[Acadamae Martial]], a combined training ground and barracks, complete with mustering fields where officers of the city's armies study and the renowned [[Dragoon-Generals]] of Hammerhal are the elite graduates of these schools.{{Fn|13a}}
