Crossbowmen are Renaissance Age Archer units.
It is a very powerful ranged unit and the first unit with the capability to fire at air units, available to counter enemy Flying Machines which appear in the Renaissance Age.
Variants[]
The most common variants would be the Crossbowmen and the Matchlock Gunners.
- Light/Escort variant - Arbalest, slightly faster, otherwise weaker.
- Assault variants; Matchlock Gunners (the Repeating Crossbowmen are inferior in all regards, including upkeep), with slightly higher attack and defense values for slightly more training cost.
Barbarians have a variant called Taborites.
They become obsolete in the Industrial Age.
Trivia[]
They could be improved with Hardened bolts.
