Valon Pikeman

(image)

A pike is longer and much heavier than a spear or a sword and balanced differently as well. Thus it should be handled with both hands and facilitates corresponding combat tactics. A wall of pikemen is the bane of any cavalry charge, and with proper discipline and tactics, pikemen can also hold most other infantry at bay. Opponents' best bet against pikemen is to pick them from afar with archers or other ranged combatants. Crossbows are carried to alleviate this weakness and plate armor provides ample protection against arrows even without a shield.
