Imperial Palace Crossbowmen
From above, tucked between battlements and leering from gatehouses, the palace crossbowmen brook no quarter for the enemies of the empire.All along the ramparts of the imperial palaces and the bastions of the capital, the crossbowmen of the palace stand ready to repel all invaders with thundering bolts and an unending zeal.
The crossbow can be fired and reloaded with relative alacrity and accuracy, even by the relatively unskilled, compared to the training and power required to use a standard bow. The highly-trained imperial soldiery, then, truly are dealers in death.
Unit Abilities

The unit spreads apart, making it more difficult for arrows to hit them. -
Imperial Solidarity
Whilst in the presence of other imperial forces, enemy blows will strike false more often, whilst their own will strike harder. -
Smoke Screen
Thick plumes of smoke obscure line of sight, making units seem temporarily invisible. -
Miasma
The dense and tough undergrowth that plagues the jungles of the South is a hindrance to all those who try to penetrate into the heartlands of the Nanman.
