Battanian Heroes are tier-four noble archers of Battania.
Tactics[]
They are the point where Battanian archers more or less equal the best archers other factions can offer and, in some cases, even outmatching the competition. They are still equaled or surpassed by a few archers skill-wise but are still perfectly fine in their own right.
Battanian Hero weaponry is still as effective as his predecessors' and his armor has received another boost. Their 
Bow skill is higher than that of the best peasant archers from other factions and their 
Two Handed skill is also nothing to scoff at. They are still best used when they can rain arrows with impunity and will regularly win archer exchanges against rivals with equal numbers.
Their inherent flaws are two-fold. First is their armor that, while better, is still lighter than many of their peers'. They also don't have shields to make up for this so, if Battanian Heroes are all you have, you can expect them to be brought down by sufficient archer fire or - worse - horse archers. It goes without saying they have the same weaknesses as all archers when confronted with mass cavalry.
The second, more significant issue, is that they can be better than this. For all their capabilities, Battanian Heroes are halfway to becoming Battanian Fian Champions. It is unlikely that most players will have the time or patience to gather enough Battanian Heroes to treat them - as far as Battania is concerned - as the mid-tier archers they are, so a wise player will continue to hold them in reserve in the hopes of training them to higher tiers.
As with all noble troops you intend to train, try to do it in bulk. Get all your Battanian noble troops to reach Battanian Fian level before attempting to upgrade them as a group. Your time and effort will be well rewarded if you do.
