18 ft, thats just the same time awesome and impossible. The JI however was 7 ft.
Where did you get the reference .
If you meant the chineese pinyin of the L bend dagger spear, it was 1.3-1.8 m ie, 5.6 approximately.
And actually JI was derived from Japanese weapon Tsukubo, which i have already proposed http://www.ageofstrategy.net/viewtopic. ... bf4af38012

And now for the stats, it is surely superior to the normal spearman, but considering the lack of a third upgrade and barrack only production, it is somewhat balanced.

But i think it should be a lighter version of pikeman and also cheaper.
