Swordsmen are guard infantry of the Kingdom of Sweden.

Tactics

Heavy shock infantry armed with mighty two-handed swords and covered in highly-resilient Half-Armor with a Morion on their heads, Swordsmen can perform admirably in a wide variety of close-combat roles - from holding castle walls to mopping up enemy infantry after a cavalry charge - and could even be used as impromptu anti-cavalry troops if your pikemen have been killed. Their main weakness, on the other hand, is steady enemy formations with firearms - enough guns fired at once can easily take them down.

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.
