The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth

"The system checks the attributes of the Woodland 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 warrior types that specialized in jungle warfare and tunnel warfare.

Woodland Warriors: An elite unit from the Lagrand Empire, level two, classified as heavy infantry. Their hometown is in the great green forests of the Romanian region. They are proficient in jungle warfare and tunnel warfare. They are equipped with heavy steel plate chain mail and thick leather armor, covered with dust-proof linen robes. Equipped with two types of shields: a half-body steel shield and a full-body heavy leather shield. The weapons are stainless steel hook sickle, ironwood hand crossbow, and mithril dagger! It is an excellent heavy-armed unit that can be used on most battlefields and is worthy of the trust of the lords!

The introduction to the system was very comprehensive, and Roland's mouth watered when he saw it. This was the first time Roland had seen such a "meaty" front row, two kinds of shields? Is this a humanoid fortress? But judging from the configuration of their armor, their mobility seems to be quite high! According to the armor configuration of the Lagrand troops, this type of troops wearing plate and chain armor will not be bulkier than the Lagrand City guards. After all, the mobility and weight of the plate chain armor are compared to the infantry plates of the Lagrand City guards. For armor, it should be lighter and stronger.

"Omsk, do you know about the Woodland Warriors?" Roland approached Ormsk and asked, thinking of asking experts if he didn't understand. After all, as a hero, Ormsk had a lot of knowledge instilled in his memory by the system. The troops of the Grand Empire are just a drop in the ocean!

"Of course, Your Highness, those are the specialties of the Great Green Forest, which is now the Dark Forest, but Your Highness, it is not easy to get them now... The kingdom has no territory, and no lord can summon this army." Ormsk shook his head and regretted Roland. road.

"Tell me more about it!" Roland, who stretched out his hands to warm the fire, became interested. Ormsk must not know that a small group of woodland warriors has rushed to Rapid City. Originally, the system could choose to drop them around Roland, but considering After only one small team had no effect on the battle, he still sent this force to rush to the Swift River City to garrison. Although there was a garrison of the Holy Glory Knights, Roland was still worried about the city defense of the Rapid River City. After all, he took away this team. After the Moria Expeditionary Force, the remaining soldiers were stationed at Lulong Fortress and Swiftstream City respectively. Their manpower gap was still quite large.

"No problem, how should I put it..." Ormsk rubbed his chin and thought.

"Tell me about the fighting style of this unit!" Roland was very curious as to why the Woodland Warriors can be regarded as the best heavy-armed warriors in jungle warfare. After all, in Roland's knowledge, in the jungle with complex and changeable environment, Only lightly armored professions such as leather armor and cloth armor can handle it with ease, while most heavily armored troops will be trapped in it and unable to extricate themselves...

"Well... you can understand that they are a group of weirdos who are not doing their job properly!" Ormsk smiled happily as if he thought of something interesting.

"Tell me about it?" Roland quickly listened.

"Although this unit is classified as a heavy-armed unit, their fighting style is different from that of most heavy-armed units, and is even a little deviant!" Ormsk stoked the bonfire, and the firelight reflected his profile, which looked calm. And handsome.

"They will carry two shields, a half-body shield made of steel, and a full-body leather shield as thick as a finger! Unlike most heavy armors, these woodland warriors do not know skills such as shield walls. They will lean against the bunker and set up a full-body shield to resist the rain of arrows. When fighting with the enemy, they will carry the full-body shield behind them. This can not only resist attacks from behind but also facilitate the carrying of two shields. These woodland warriors are born Hand-to-hand killers! Their hooked scythes combined with the use of steel half-shields are almost invincible in individual combat! Even knights have to be careful of being hooked off their horses or having their legs cut off. They once became the most hated unit of the cavalry. , and thanks to their stocky equipment, even if they are scattered, they will not be easily destroyed by the cavalry. On the contrary, the woodland warriors squatting behind the half-shield and holding the short hook sickle are every charge cavalry's nightmare! Unless they are organized knights The group attacks them... Otherwise... Of course, no knights would go deep into the jungle if they have nothing to do? So these guys are thriving in an environment where the knights can't go deep!" Ormsk said a lot in one breath, holding up Taking a swig from the water bag, he continued.

"And the woodland warriors equipped with mithril short swords are not inferior in armor breaking! There is a slot on the back of their hook sickle gun that can be inserted into the hilt. After installation, it will become a short halberd, so when faced with heavy equipment When they are in the army, they still have strong counterattack capabilities, and because they are accompanied by iron wood hand crossbows, they have certain mid-range strike capabilities and can be qualified for many positions. Of course, in terms of battle formation capabilities, they are still very weak... Plain terrain In the next legion battle, they will be completely beaten by heavy armor professionals of the same number and level..." Ormsk shrugged.

"Why? Are they quite omnipotent?" Roland asked puzzled.

"Woodland warriors without shield wall skills mean that they will be overwhelmed by others! They have no ability to positional warfare and cannot gain a foothold on defensive positions! The biggest use of this unit is probably offensive surprise attack! Oh! By the way! They also have a speed that does not match their own! This is their biggest feature. The woodland warriors with strong endurance can often outrun the movement speed of light infantry!" Ormsk admired their speed very much. After all, they can outrun heavy infantry. The speed of running out of the light infantry is a miracle, right?

"It's really interesting...their two shields are actually used for this..." Roland covered his face and smiled bitterly. He thought these double-shield men had some special skills...Unexpectedly, they were just used to block arrows and prevent backstabbing. …

"But I have to say it does work! The success rate of assassins of the same level stabbing Woodland Warriors in the back-shielded state is only one-fourth of the success rate of other heavy-armed professions!" Ormsk said in an exclamation tone.

"Oh! God!" Roland said in surprise.

"Well...but facing the charge of the established knights, the survival rate of the Woodland Warriors is less than one percent..." Ormsk said awkwardly.

"...It's...it's really special..." Roland was speechless. Although this guy is qualified for many positions, these woodland warriors seem to be useless when the plains army collides? Is it okay without the shield wall skill? This was the first time Roland saw a heavy-armed professional without a shield wall.

"Each profession has its own use. Although they are indeed not very useful in legion confrontations, their abilities will be maximized in jungles and tunnels like this..." Ka, who inspected a circle Sluo came back and sat next to Roland and smiled at him.

"That's right!" Roland smiled. After all, it's good to have sex for free from the system. Why should he be picky? How long has it been since this cerebral palsy system gave me something useful? I should be satisfied with it after finally giving it a unit. At least it gave me a street fighting king.
