Description
The 'third rank' soldiers of the Atraxian legions, pikemen typically stand in formation behind two ranks of their comrades with shields to deter incoming charges and add pressure to enemy units. Dedicated pike formations exist, and their long reach and defensive tactics make them particularly devastating to cavalry.
Typically Atraxian pikemen carry the 'standard' maille armour and shortsword characteristc of the legions, trading shield, javelin and spear for a pike.
