Wei Melee Infantry

Qingzhou Assault Infantry

Whatever cause these warriors used to fight for is gone; now they have a new purpose, if not the same zeal. It was Cao Cao that saved these former rebels from traitors' deaths, and though they swear their arms to a new cause, their hearts do not follow.

Better armed and armoured than their other erstwhile rebel comrades, they suffer the same lack of morale for the cause. Yet on occasion, they will show a glimpse of their former fury, and be overtaken by a zealous warrior's rage!

Unit Abilities

• Caltrops
  Simple nut husks, once trodden upon, cause extreme pain and slow movement.
• Smoke Screen
  Thick plumes of smoke obscure line of sight, making units seem temporarily invisible.
• Miasma
  The dense and tough undergrowth that plagues the jungles of the South is a hindrance to all those who try to penetrate into the heartlands of the Nanman.
• Misplaced Devotion
  The Qingzhou warriors place their devotion in their new lord, Cao Cao, fighting to the bitter end.
• Loose
  The unit spreads apart, making it more difficult for arrows to hit them.
