My take: D tier

Avenging Kriegsbruders – Conqueror's Blade T4 cavalry unit

Overview

Heroic cavalry that hides behind shields, takes the hit, then charges and cuts through the line. 21 riders for 225 leadership, and fire only does half damage to them.

Strengths

  • Shield Charge: double impact damage, bonus against shields (30s cooldown)
  • Full Assault: +40% max HP and +100 damage reduction (22s cooldown)
  • Shields block melee and ranged hits
  • 50% less damage from flamethrowers and fire

Weaknesses

  • 15% less charge damage against heroes
  • Ranged AoE hurts on the way in
  • Massed anti-cavalry stops them
  • Has to pull out between rounds to rebuild shields

How to Play

  • Wait in Wedge behind your spears or shields.
  • Open with Shield Charge into the enemy line. It hits twice as hard, and harder still against shields.
  • Go straight into Full Assault and cleave through the ranks: +40% max HP and +100 damage reduction while it runs.
  • Then pull out, let shields and cooldowns come back, and do it again.
  • They love company: pikes that pin the target, or a Poleaxe or Maul hero holding it still.
