What it does
1 generic mana: This creature gains first strike until end of turn.
1 generic mana: This creature gains banding until end of turn. (Any creatures with banding, and up to one without, can attack in a band. Bands are blocked as a group. If any creatures with banding you control are blocking or being blocked by a creature, you divide that creature's combat damage, not its controller, among any of the creatures it's being blocked by or is blocking.)
"Valiant Icatia was the last of the Sarpadian empires to fall. Its faithful soldiers defended their cities to the very end."— *Sarpadian Empires, vol. VI*

Where it came from
Icatian Infantry was released in 1994 as part of Fallen Empires, the fourth expansion set for Magic: The Gathering. The set was conceived as a thematic exploration of a crumbling fantasy empire, focusing on internal conflict and the desperation of various factions. This card represents the militarized citizenry of Icatia, an archetype central to the set's white-aligned color pie, which emphasized small, expendable units and collective strength.
The card was illustrated by Anson Maddocks, one of the original artists for the game whose style is defined by a raw, textured approach that helped establish the early aesthetic of the Magic universe. Maddocks sought to capture the grit of a infantry soldier amidst a fractured society, moving away from high-fantasy heroism toward a more grounded, weary portrayal of warfare. While Fallen Empires received mixed reviews upon release due to its unusual power level and flavor-heavy design, the artwork remains a recognized piece of the game's formative visual history.
