Rattan Roundshields – Conqueror's Blade T2 infantry unit

Overview

Chivalric light shield infantry in rattan armour: resists slashing, weak to fire. 32 men, a lot for this tier. Shield Rush is the charge. From Mastery V, every second attack applies AoE poison.

Strengths

  • 32 men
  • Light and fast, good slashing defence
  • Shield Rush with damage reduction (60s)
  • Mastery V, Rattan Poison: every second attack applies AoE poison (slow and damage over time)

Weaknesses

  • Fire, artillery and incendiary weapons
  • No piercing or blunt penetration
  • Needs veterancy for all formations
  • 60s between charges

How to Play

  • Shield Rush (60s): charge in one direction with heavy impact, less damage taken while charging.
  • Dispersed on the approach, then Column or Shield Rush to close the gap.
  • Shield Rush into the line, then switch to a defensive formation.
  • Schiltron when you hold an objective and you're surrounded.
  • Column and Schiltron come from veterancy.
  • Stay away from fire.
