King Mulu Polearm Infantry

Nanman Spearmen

The spear is a simple weapon, and for the poorest fighters it may be little more than a sturdy bamboo cane honed to a point.

A spear keeps the enemy at arm's length, however, and can be used both to attack and defend. In the hands of big-hearted men who will do whatever it takes to defend what is theirs, spears can still take their toll in battle.

Unit Abilities

• 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.
• Loose
  The unit spreads apart, making it more difficult for arrows to hit them.

Attributes

• CHARGE REFLECTION VS. MOUNTED
  Reflects the charge damage of any mounted attacker back onto them when braced.
• HIDE IN FOREST
  Can hide in forests.

Strengths & Weaknesses

• Role: anti-cavalry
  These units are strong against flanking units such as cavalry, so are best used to protect vulnerable flanks.
• Good against mounted
  This unit is trained to fight against mounted enemies.
• Weak against missile attacks
  This unit is unshielded and therefore has little defence against missile attacks.
