Unit Description
Slav Warriors are available to all factions from central and eastern European provinces during the Early and High periods. They are essentially sword armed peasants, they have good charge, but not very much else. Slav Warriors are cheap and easily recruited, and should be used as disposable fodder. Unlike most other sword units, Slav Warriors come have a larger unit size (100 instead of 60 men on default sizes), so they can be used to overwhelm spear units. They have a large shield which helps protect them both from missiles and in melee.
