[[File:Armoured_tortoise.png|thumb|left|Ready for battle.]][[File:Gnome Mage.png|right|125px|thumb|A mage who jumps off the tortoise after it's killed.]]The '''Armoured Tortoise Regiment''' is a mounted division of the [[gnome|Gnomish Army]], defending the front of the [[Tree Gnome Village]] at the [[battlefield]] to the north, where gnomes desperately battle against the [[Khazard's Army|warriors]] of the young [[Mahjarrat]] [[General Khazard]]. The Regiment is a relatively new addition to the Gnomish Army, having been established in the Year 169 of the [[Fifth Age]], and only two have been introduced into the ranks of the army so far, though [[Lieutenant Schepbur]] seems sure that more will be added once [[King Bolren]] has the money for it.

Although the gnomish use of [[tortoise|Giant Tortoises]] as battle mounts dates back to the late [[Fourth Age]] and has aided them in numerous battles such as the [[Battle of Atarisundri]], where the oldest tortoise, [[Mibbiwocket]] was the personal mount of [[King Healthorg]], Tortoises have not become a key part in the gnome military until the induction of the Regiment, which has given the gnomes the upper hand in their fight against Khazard.

Still in development, the Regiment's activity can be viewed only in the [[Tree Gnome Stronghold]], where gnomes and tortoises train to be able to fight, and those already active in battle at the [[Battlefield|Gnome - Khazard Battlefield]]. [[Lieutenant Schepbur]] leads the Regiment, though it seems the only two tortoises ready for military service on the Khazard Battlefield and have not yet taken part in battle.
