Strengths
* Hold The Line- Due to their discipline and use of shields to defend against ranged attacks, the men-at-arms make the perfect unit to hold the line against enemy attacks as well as fill in the gaps where needed.
* Disciplined. Due to several months in trainings, the Men-At-Arms are a disciplined corps, not resulting to chaotic charges, or passionate actions in the field.
Weaknesses
* Weak against calvary charges. Without support from range units or pikemen these swordsmen have limited means to defend themselves against the hammer of a calvary charge
* Slow Moving. Due to their heavy gear, the Men-at-Arms are sluggish when moving in the field, and prefer to hold static positions.
Historical Information
From monsters to cavalry, to Northmen shieldwalls and daemonic mages, the peoples of Erova have always been fighting for both conquest, or outright survival. In order to keep up with the tide, and enhance their performance in the field of battle, new and innovative war machines and practices are employed. However in the case of these poor dipshit peasants this is not the case. Okay lets be fair they are more well trained than that, but in grand scheme of history... they are here to do the job of the Poor Bloody Infantry and they do it well.
Be that creating formations with pikemen, or protecting the range units, or simple combat patrols. The Men-at-Arms are the go to for any Erovan noble looking for cheap bodies to throw into the meat grinder of war. They have done so for centuries and will keep doing so for many centuries in the future. It cost a bit to keep a large force of them under arms, but when supported correct by things like archers, pikemen, and calvary... the bread and butter of the military that they are starts to shine.
