I. Unlock Conditions

1. Consume a certain number of Commander Tokens.

2. Reach the designated Commander level.

 

II. Unit Characteristics

Compared to Tier 1 Swordsmen, Polearm Infantry boasts a longer attack range, enabling more tactical operations through positioning.

 

III. Combat Role

As a Tier 2 Swordsman unit, Polearm Infantry counters Spearmen while being vulnerable to Cavalry. Additionally, it exhibits some counter effects against siege units. Its extended attack range allows for more flexible combat approaches: On one hand, it can form damage-focused Polearm Infantry Formations to deal high damage by controlling engagement distance; on the other, it can emphasize control, utilizing its range advantage to effectively Harass enemies, restrict their movements, and create favorable situations for allies. Overall, Polearm Infantry holds significant tactical value in both Siege and open-field battles.

 

IV. Commander Recommendations

Wu Zixu: Excels with Swordsman units, granting additional attribute bonuses. As a Swordsman Troops leader, his formation Skill deals high Physical Damage. When Swordsmen Advance to Polearm Infantry, Wu Zixu leverages the increased Attack range to deliver substantial damage and harassment in Siege and PVP battles.

Dian Wei: Also possesses excellent Swordsman affinity with attribute bonuses. Dian Wei's formation skill both harasses enemies and inflicts damage. After advancing to Polearm Infantry, Dian Wei further enhances his control capabilities through distance management, more effectively suppressing enemy troops.
