units freemen - RTR-Imperium-Surrectum/ris-wiki GitHub Wiki


Class: light · Category: infantry · Men per unit: 40
Armed with shields and frameae-spears, Germanic freemen fight tenaciously for their nations and their status as free men. They may lack armor, but only a fool would underestimate their determination – or the sharpness of their frameae! The place of these freemen was in the main battleline, right behind the pike-armed vanguard.
