v4 v5 35 35 ||Vision.LOS:||■□□□|| 36 36 ||Special:||Experience;|| 37 38 [[BR]][[BR]] 39 ==== History: ==== 37 ==== History ==== 40 38 * Weapon is basically a developed sickle. Probably from the club, to the axe, to the sickle to the sword. 41 39 * It was the Romans who used them to combat the long range of the sarissa. Their spears were so long they had to use two hands to wield them. In a formation they were almost impossible to maneouvre. If flanked, they were easily cut down by a sword as demonstrated by the Romans at the battle of Cynoscephalae. … … 73 71 ||Vision.LOS:||■□□□|| 74 72 ||Special:||Experience;|| 75 ==== History :====73 ==== History ==== 76 74 * Probably one of the most primitive units in the game. Fighting with a sharp object at the end of the pole didn’t require a lot of technology to develop. 77 75 * It also allowed the human to distance themselves from their attacker. As time passed the spears got longer and longer. … … 114 112 ||Vision.LOS:||■■□□|| 115 113 ||Special:||Experience;|| 116 ==== History :====114 ==== History ==== 117 115 * These were the skirmishers. These lightly armoured units would advance quickly, throw a hail of javelins and then retreat back to their ranks. Grab another spear and repeat. 118 116 * They would do well against any unit that wasn’t wearing proper armour, but more poorly if they fought hand to hand vs a well armoured unit. … … 153 151 ||Vision.LOS:||■■□□|| 154 152 ||Special:||Experience;|| 155 ==== History :====153 ==== History ==== 156 154 * They tended to be lightly armoured. 157 155 * They usually only participated in the first stage of a battle, sending a volley of arrows raining down the enemy. … … 191 189 ||Vision.LOS:||■■□□|| 192 190 ||Special:||Experience;|| 193 ==== History :====191 ==== History ==== 194 192 * They were amazing shots with their slings. They used choice rocks, and often specifically created ‘shot’ made from lead. 195 193 * They could pierce armour at close distances.
