Militiaman

Mermen are longtime allies of Wesnoth. They surely have a lot of flaws and pursue their own national interests but, unlike dwarves, they are not prone to betraying allies. So, when the battle takes place in the coastal areas you often can see the least efficient parts of Marine Guard fighting alongside the Royal Army.
