Each unit has its own advantages and upgrade branches. Pumping allows you to increase the characteristics and open the skill, if this is provided for the squad. Ultimately, pumped units can provide decent resistance to some other units. With proper pumping, you can increase survivability or speed up the time of the battle with other units.

History of the Skirmishers.

It is known from history that the first to play the role of skirmishers were warriors in Ancient Greece, who were called Peltasts. Peltasts are a variant in the light and missile infantry, as they were armed with several throwing darts and a shield. Quite often they were used to throw darts at a short distance, and then they could join the battle. The units had normal mobility due to light armor. Combat victories were won due to the large numbers.

The Peltasta units gradually gained great popularity and had the honor of fighting in the Peloponnesian War. The main recruitment into the troops was carried out from the Greek cities and were the main mercenary troops during the 4th century BC. Since the beginning of the appearance, Peltasts were equipped with shields made of pelt and covered with goat or sheep skin. After the reform, the troops began to be equipped with spears.

Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen”, in the game Conquerors Blade.

From a certain point of view, the Western Skirmishers-Guards are the same fighters as the Western Skirmishers, only with better stats. Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen” have a class of 4 stars. They have more health points and higher damage output. Due to this, they are able to withstand enemy fighters up to 4 eras.

The maximum number of fighters in the squad is 28 people, if you pump the lower branch. To be recruited into a platoon, they require 230 leadership points. There are 18 levels for pumping, this allows you to pump one full branch of pumping and one indicator from another branch. The unit’s health reserve is 9768 units.

The Western Skirmishers – Guards unit will pair well with a melee hero as the primary location is the second and closest row. If you play in tandem with an ally, then the survival rate increases. You can also take with the hero “Musket” and “Short Bow”, since their location is the same, to be behind the backs of the allied troops. Probably using the Musket and Shortbow with the hero’s weapons may seem even more effective than with melee weapons, due to good control and visibility. But with the Longbow weapon, the combination is not very good, you will have to keep a close distance.

The tactics of using the Western “Skirmishers – Guards” detachment in the game Conquerors Blade.

The combat tactics are the same as those of the Western Skirmishers, a game of throwing darts and quickly moving to a safe distance. desired location of the unit on the battlefield is the location of the unit with the nearest recovery point. Since you will often have to run to replenish ammunition.

It is possible to take a defensive position in a narrow section of the passage if allied units and heroes are present. So you can extend the life of the units and hold the direction longer. With full pumping of attacks with darts, about 5 volleys will come out and the squad will have to be sent to replenish ammunition.

If there are no allied troops nearby, then the detachment will most likely be dismantled, and there will be enough darts for 1-2 volleys. As a result, the flank will have to be given to the enemy, but you can save some part of the detachment. In defense, the unit does not last very long, depending on the enemy units.

Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen” have proven themselves in carrying out sabotage attacks on enemy archers. So the squad has normal armor from penetrating attacks and also performs the role of a rifle squad. At the same time, one-time attacks with penetrating blows pierce the armor by 1590 points, and the damage is about 1180 points. This gives a good advantage over lightly armored targets.

Disadvantages of the unit, Western “Skirmishers – Guards”, in the game Conquerors Blade.

The squad’s accuracy isn’t very good, and the ability of the javelin regenerates slowly, unlike the musketeers. This is probably the slowest ranged weapon in Conquerors Blade. Enemy heroes can dodge most of the attacks they fire. Therefore, it is not always effective to use point shooting attacks and it also takes extra time to aim. As a result, the squad is difficult to manage and only suitable for experienced players.

In close combat, it is significantly difficult to survive against some troops from era 3 and almost all enemy troops from era 4. In a one-on-one battle, the Western Skirmishers-Guards lost the fight to the regular Veteran Swordsmen, without using javelins. And this is not the only such unit where the Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen” lose in close combat.

What to download for the Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen” in the game Conquerors Blade?

This question worries many players and some have tried to play this squad by pumping different directions of pumping. On the one hand, both upgrade branches are attractive, on the other hand, there are plenty to choose from. The fact is that depending on the style of play, you can determine the effectiveness of the squad on the battlefield.

The upper branch of the upgrade is designed to deliver accurate and strong attacks on the enemy, and also unlocks the “Double Throw” skill. But, not everything is so simple, because in fact, “Double Throw” seems to reduce the accuracy of the attack. In our case, the released attacks, in terms of misses, are significantly noticeable and not effective. Even the leveling “Processing tips”, which increases damage by 6%, is not very noticeable in practice.

The lower branch of pumping is designed to increase the survivability of the squad and the amount of ammunition. By pumping this branch, you can increase the number of fighters in the squad by 4 people by pumping “Mobilization”. Which gives an additional advantage on the battlefield in terms of numbers. Another attractive power-up is “Bandage”, which allows the squad to heal wounds right on the battlefield. By activating “Bandage”, the unit will begin to replenish health points in the amount of 250 units over 15 seconds.

If you refer to the play style and pay attention to control on the battlefield, then in a larger case, the lower level of the leveling will be more attractive. In addition, in fact, it manifests itself more effectively and noticeably. And the additional number of the detachment, with the possibility of recovery, will definitely not be superfluous.

Conclusion on the squad Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen”, in the game Conquerors Blade.

With the full pumping of the lower branch, the squad of Western “Skirmishers – Guardsmen” shows itself well in the far against various enemy squads. Unless, of course, the enemy squad will be no higher than 4 era and be at a certain distance in order to have time to release 1-2 volleys of darts. It is important to note that the main use of Western Skirmisher-Guard units is javelin throwing.

If we consider the squad in close combat, then the idea is bad, since in most cases the confrontation ends in defeat. For example, when fully upgraded, the Western Skirmishers-Guards lose the battle to the regular Veteran Swordsmen, without javelin attacks.

Of course, another important point will be the correct choice of the Traktov installation to improve the characteristics of the squad. We set it to penetrating damage, increasing health, increasing protection against enemy attacks, the rest is at our discretion.
