Plate for spears

[Xehh II]

Are there any spearmen that can get armour better than Heavy Chain?
It would be so cool to have plate amoured spearmen but all the spearmen I've seen can only wear Heavy Chain, please tell me that there are plate spearmen.

Nope there are not.

2Hs like Obudshaer can get plate though.

Don't forget that Scottish Noble Pike Men and Heavy Pike Militia also wear plate. And they have the biggest spears in the game

LOL ... so true !

Italian Spear Militia can be upgraded to partial plate. Yes, this means they're even better than armoured sarges in the long run. Italian Militia units are crazy good.

i guess, if you like having units that route alot easier then armored sarges

This is not true, I tested in a Custom battle they, like all Spearmen can only upgrade to heavy chain.

They have the same morale, actually...

Armoured Sarges:
Cost 540/155
Attack 7/3
Defense 14 Can upgrade to Heavy Mail
Morale 5

Italian Spear Militia:
Cost 460/125
Attack 7/3
Defense 13 Can upgrade to Partial Plate
Morale 5

Although, I notice that in custom battle they only have 2 armor upgrades. this is odd, because they only start with padded, and 2 upgrades should put them at heavy mail. But they are obviously equipped with plate with both upgrades...I don't know any unit that can skip armor upgrades...strange.
