Abilities[]

Shield Wall: Requires Basic Military Studies (from the Library). The pikemen change their fighting style and use their shields to protect themselves. They gain +70% armor but lose 30% speed for 30 seconds.

Flank Defence - Pikemen are used to defending from all sides when battling against monsters and cavalry. As a result, they cannot be flanked. They take no extra damage from being flanked and deal full revenge damage regardless of the direction they get trampled from.

Porcupine Formation: The units form a circle with pikes extended. Requires Basic Military Studies to have been reasearch at the Library
