Velite

Pilum masters pride themselves as versatile soldiers in melee and range. They are masters of the spear and in melee combat fight from just beyond the reach of an average soldier. Similarily in long engagement they can hurl javelins into enemy ranks from a distance, often without retribution. Pilum masters also have one more weapon in their arsenal, fire. Lighting the tips of their javelins they launch in them into enemy ranks and at enemy camps causing havoc, and confusing the enemy.

Special Notes:The length of this unit’s weapon allows it to strike first in melee, even in defense.
