King Mulu Polearm Infantry

Javelin Spearmen

The versatility of the spear makes it a vital asset to any army, despite its relative simplicity. The same weapon can be used to throw, defend or attack in melee.

Even the bulkier two-handed spear can be thrown like a javelin, although the number of such weapons an individual warrior can carry is somewhat limited.

After their initial throw, these spearmen stand ready to lead a charge, or withstand one.

Unit Abilities

  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.
