Dwarf Royal Halberdier - IMPLEMENTED

Post by samuelch »

Tough dwarf anti cavalry unit. Wearing a spiked helmet (pickelhaube) and wield an enemoure halberdier. One theory says that the spike on a pickelhaube purpose is to deflect saber attack from upward so this unit will have a very high normal armor and tough against cavalry charge.

Short body of the dwarf=it's easier for cavalry to strike from upward. it's easier for cavalry to strike from upward + pickelhaube=hard to kill. :D

So you mean like just about any other dwarf infantry? I think dwarves won't be all that short when it comes to armor :lol:

No, not billman. We need to keep "billman" part for its upgrades if there will be any. Why not just Mithril Guardian?

Names don't have to be same as their normal variants. For example Imperial Shielder and Swordsman

How about Mithiril Phalanxs, like in Lord of the rings BFME2? I did look it up to make sure that wasn't the only reference.

in general i want to add: pike-like unit, shielded unit, with mace one. everyone will be melee only (pike-like will get reach upgrade) and no ranged (mithril is pretty heavy metal and it is hard to use it for a ranged unit's armor because they need more free armor)

also no cavalry.

About stats and names i am thinking and i am open for name suggestions.

Ya I guess they don't need ranged mithiril guard considering how the sharpshooter basically fulfilled that role as a ranged elite unit.Here's without having to be a mouthful guard himself.
