MERCENARIES/5th Units
Mercenaries are presumed as monsters and human fighters. For example, let us say you used up all your wizard's energy and you needed to fight a huge battle to gain a province... who would you rely on as a 5th unit if you needed backup? MERCENARIES! Mercenaries cost some gold but if they keep their faith up for a long time and your character who leads the battle has a good/high battle rating, they can be MIGHTIER than the wizards!
HUMAN MERCENARIES!
Spearmen are cheap and can only attack ranged enemies, but
this can be a very good advantage...
Medieval Gunmen... never heard of it, but it's in Gemfire.
They can only shoot at range, but pack a huge punch.
The second best human mercenaries are tough and courageous!
They come in a large number and are pretty cheap for their services!
The FINEST human mercenaries you can have! Their price is
GRAND for the ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY Warriors you will recieve by getting them
on your force! With a good leader, they are unstoppable!
MONSTER/BEAST MERCENARIES!
The great SEA DRAGON Pastha, yes, there are quite a few of these. You can only
gain a Pastha by being a good ruler and it offers to fight for you, Pastha has
160 soldier points, that's very powerful.
Orks are big, strong and quite numerous. They're really cheap
too, though they definately are weaker than the elite Human mercenaries.
Another cheap monster type! They are pretty good, Orks are
better though. It's the same price, basically they are still good to have as an
emergency backup.
An Ogre is big and strong, he can cause alot of disasters
against your enemies, but for his service he is a bit too overpriced.
Bugbears do not fight enemies, he frightens them destroying
their morale and forcing them to flee!
Fachan is a very good ally, he can thrust rocks at nearby and
faraway opponents, resulting in massive damage.
Olog-hais are large and sharp clawed. That means... they are a
good force! Ten gold more than Skeletons and Orks, but as obvious they are
better.
Gargoyles can be very helpful in battle! They can fly over
rivers, but not castle walls or fences. Their movement can help you attack from
the flank or rear more often and basically, devistate your enemies!
Large, numerous and a powerful pack! They are the second best
monster mercenaries to have!
The Wyvern has alot of life force, and since it can fly it is
a grand force. A Wyvern is the best monster mercenary you can hire.
