Marksmen are upgraded tier-II units of the Temple faction. They can be recruited from Mews II.

Description

Neither blessings nor gentle arts win wars — metallurgy does.

The Church teaches self-perfection in all forms — soul, body, and steel. With a heavy crossbow in hand, the Order of the Anvil ensures their prayers strengthen the very weapons and armor they forge.
