Halberdier

Most ambitious of warders seek even more high-paying jobs, so they become elite bodyguards - halberdiers. They are not just mercenaries - only officials of the highest rank have right to protection of halberdiers and only warriors which have proven their reliability over the years of impeccable service can join their ranks. Halberd is universal weapon which requires perfected individual skills, not only ability to fight in formation.
