The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth - Chapter 245

“The system checks the attributes of the forest warriors…” Roland scratched his head. Although he had heard of this unit a little, he was not familiar with it. He could only know that this unit was one of the few warriors who specialized in jungle warfare and tunnel warfare.

Woodland Warrior: An elite unit from the LaGrand Empire, with a rank of second rank, belonging to the heavy infantry. Their homeland was in the great green woods of the Romanian region, and they were skilled in jungle and tunnel warfare, armed with heavy plate mail and thick leather, and covered with dust-proof linen robes. Equipped with half-body steel shield and full-body heavy leather shield. The weapons are stainless steel short-hook sickle spear, iron-wood hand crossbow, and mithril dagger! It is an excellent heavy equipment unit that can be used in most battlefields and is worthy of the trust of the lords!

The introduction of the system is very comprehensive. Seeing that Roland is drooling, this is the first time Roland has seen such a “meaty” front row, two kinds of shields? This is a humanoid fortress, right? But judging from the configuration of their armor, their mobility seems to be quite high! According to the armor configuration of LaGrand arms, this type of armor wearing plate chain armor will not be heavier than LaGrand city guards. For A, it should be lighter and stronger.

“Omsk, do you know the woodland sharpshooter?” Roland found Omsk and asked the expert with the idea of ​​asking an expert if he couldn’t figure it out. After all, Omsk, as a hero, had a lot of knowledge instilled in his memory by the system. The arms of the Grand Empire are just a drop in the ocean!

“Of course, Your Highness, that is the special product of the Great Green Forest, which is now the Dark Forest, but Your Highness, it is not easy to get them now… There is no territory in the kingdom, and no lord can summon this unit.” Omsk shook his head and regretted to Roland. .

“Tell me in detail!” Roland, who stretched out his hands to warm the fire, became interested. Omsk certainly didn’t know that a small group of woodland warriors had already rushed to Rapid City. Originally, the system could choose to deploy around Roland, but considering After only one small team had no effect on the battle situation, they still sent this troop to station in Rapid Flow City. Although there was the Garrison of the Holy Glory Knights, Roland was still very worried about the city defense of Rapid Flow City. After the Moria Expeditionary Force, the remaining soldiers will be stationed in Lulong Fortress and Rapid Flow City respectively, and their strength gap is still a bit large.

“No problem, how should I put it…” Omsk rubbed his chin and thought.

“Tell me about the fighting style of this army!” Roland was very curious as to why the woodland sharpshooter could be hailed as the best heavy armored fighter in jungle warfare. After all, in Roland’s perception, in the complex and changeable jungle environment, Only the leather armor and cloth armor occupations that go into battle with light armor can do it with ease, and most of the heavy armor troops will be stuck in it and cannot extricate themselves…

Let’s go and give it a try. 】

“This…you can understand that they are a bunch of weirdos who don’t do their jobs properly!” Omsk smiled happily, as if thinking of something interesting.

“Let’s hear it?” Roland listened quickly.

“Although this type of unit is classified as a heavy armored unit, their fighting style is different from that of most heavy armored units, and they are even a bit deviant!” Omsk stoked the bonfire, and his side face appeared calm when the firelight reflected on it And handsome.

“They carry two shields on their backs, one is a steel half-shield, and the other is a finger-thick full-body leather shield! Unlike most heavy armors, these woodland warriors don’t know skills like shield walls. They will set up a full-body shield with their backs against the bunker to resist the rain of arrows. When fighting with the enemy, they will carry the full-body shield on their backs. This can not only resist the attack from behind, but also facilitate the carrying of two shields. These woodland warriors are born Hand-to-hand killers! Their short-hooked sickles combined with the use of steel half-body shields are almost invincible in individual combat! Even knights must be careful not to be hooked off their horses or have their legs cut off. They were once the most hated unit of cavalry , and thanks to their solid equipment, even if they are scattered, they will not be easily destroyed by the cavalry. On the contrary, the woodland sharpshooter squatting behind the half-length shield and holding the short hook is the nightmare of every charge cavalry! Unless it is an organized knight attack them…otherwise…Of course, how can there be any knights who have nothing to do and go deep into the jungle? So these guys thrive in an environment where the knights can’t penetrate!” Omsk said a lot in one breath, holding up the water bag Taking a swig, he continued.

“And the woodland sharpshooters equipped with mithril short swords are not inferior in piercing armor! There is a notch behind their hooked sickle guns that can be inserted into the hilt. After installation, it will become a short halberd, so facing heavy equipment When they are in the army, they still have a strong counterattack ability, and because they are accompanied by iron and wooden hand crossbows, they have a certain medium-range strike ability and can be competent for many positions. Of course, in terms of battle formation capabilities, they are still very weak…under plain terrain They will be completely abused by heavy equipment professionals of the same number and level in the battle of the legion…” Omsk shrugged.

“Why? Are they all-powerful?” Roland asked puzzled.

“Woodland warriors without shield wall skills mean that they will be overwhelmed by others in one round! They don’t have the ability to fight in positions, and they can’t gain a foothold on defensive positions! The biggest use of this unit is probably offensive surprise attacks! Oh! That’s right! They also have a speed that doesn’t match their own! This is their biggest feature, woodland warriors with strong endurance can often run faster than light infantry!” Omsk admired their speed very much, after all, they can fight with heavy infantry It’s a miracle to run out of the speed of light infantry with your identity!

“It’s really interesting…Their two shields are actually used for this…” Roland covered his face and smiled wryly. He thought that these double-shield warriors had some unique skills…I didn’t expect that they were simply used to block arrows and prevent backstabs…

“But I have to say that it is indeed effective! The success rate of the woodland sharpshooter in the backstab and shield state of the assassin professional of the same level is only a quarter of the success rate of other heavy equipment!” Omsk said in an amazed tone. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com

“Oh! God!” Roland said in surprise.

“Ah… But facing the charge of the established knights, the survival rate of the woodland warriors is less than 1%…” Omsk said embarrassingly.

“…It’s really special…” Roland was speechless. Although this guy is qualified for many positions, these woodland warriors seem to be very weak in the case of a confrontation between the plains army? Is it okay without the shield wall skill? This is the first time Roland has seen a heavy equipment professional without a shield wall.

“Each profession has its own usefulness. Although they are not very useful in the case of legion confrontation, their abilities will be maximized in the jungle and such tunnels…” Cass inspected the circle Luo walked back and sat beside Roland and smiled at him.

“That’s right!” Roland smiled. After all, it’s not bad to go whoring from the system for free. Why do you pick and choose? This cerebral palsy system hasn’t given us anything useful for a long time, and it should be enough to give it to a unit, at least it gave it to a street fighting king.
