== Notes ==
* All Imperial Guard summons have 480 health at level 20.
* The level of the summoned creature will be the same as the summoner's actual level (it will not be increased by [[Journey to the North]] or [[Sunspear Battle Call]]).
* The combination of Imperial Guard summons is not truly random. There exists only three possible combinations:
** Exactly one Canthan Captain is always summoned. The Canthan Captain always has the [[Quivering Blade]] skillset.
** The remaining two are always Canthan Guards with the same skillset (i.e. both have the [[Triple Chop]] skillset or the [[Crippling Slash]] skillset or the [[Barrage]] skillset).
{{bug|The corpses of Imperial Guard summons never disappear.}}
