We call 'em Hsa, or "Tiger Hsunchen" these days, is what.

The Shan-Shan mountain region in general, including the area bordering Fethlon (to be picky).

There's nothing at all reasonable about Wolf Pirates armies. :-|

A tiger hsunchen would be at the highish end of the 'unusual' spectrum, but Wolf Pirates are known to include 'unusuals'. If you're using points-valued miniature rules, I'd suggest a modest "surcharge" was in order.
