Description

Sword fighters are usually barely armoured and fight without shields to retain their mobility. Thus they can circulate around the immobile Phalanx formation and attack from the flanks.

  • During battle, Swordsmen deploy to the flanks, unless they are needed to fill the front battle line.
  • 30, 40 or 50 Swordsmen fill a battlefield space.

Attack Sequence
