A formation of spears makes an exellent defensive regiment. Enemies who charge a unit of Spearmen are faced with an impassable wall of sharp steel points. Spearmen are more common in the northern provinces. In the southern provinces, which are influenced by nearby Tilea where the pike is the infantry`s weapon of choice, the traditional Empire spears are often replaced by similar pole weapons, commonly called half-pikes.
