Warrior Pack - Ivan the Terrible

Ivan IV, remembered as ‘the Terrible’, or, more correctly ‘the Mighty’, by the Russian people, began as a vigorous and benevolent ruler, but soon descended into paranoia and madness. After accusing members of the Russian nobility of poisoning and killing his wife, Ivan launched a series of oppressive acts, binding peasants in servitude and creating a group of secret police under his command. At the peak of his madness, Ivan ordered the entire population of a city be put to death: more than 30,000 people. Ivan killed his own son in a fit of rage only a few years before falling ill and dying, most likely from poisoning and disease. Consumed by insanity, use Ivan the Terrible’s uncompromising ruthlessness and rage to utterly defeat your opponents in the Anachronism arena.
