Rhodok Trained Crossbowmen are third-tier ranged troops of the Kingdom of Rhodoks. The only significant difference from Rhodok Crossbowmen is that they always have shields and hoods.
Tactics[]
They wear mostly the same equipment as normal Rhodok Crossbowmen, the difference being their predecessors have more lower-end gear they can potentially spawn with, but the higher-end gear is the same. Most of their stats are slightly higher, though oddly, their Ironflesh is one point lower, giving them 2 fewer health points.
Unlike normal Rhodok Crossbowmen, this unit is guaranteed a shield, which can provide an advantage if they ever need to engage in melee combat. It can also be used to defend against enemy archers until they come close enough to be in crossbow range.
Trained Crossbowmen also have 20 more points in their Crossbows proficiency over their predecessors, which gives them superior accuracy at longer ranges, most useful while defending during a siege. Due to crossbows' power and ease of use, as well as the fairly low cost of keeping third-tier foot troops in a garrison, Rhodok Trained Crossbowmen can be stationed as a defense in massive numbers while still being potent enough to defend the walls.
Stats and Equipment[]
Note: Troops have a set of default stats; at the beginning of a new game, these stats are randomly adjusted for each type of troop. The following is the default set for this troop as seen within the game code and may not reflect the specific stats you will see during actual gameplay. For more information, see troop stats.
