Rattan Vipers are a silver era archer ranged infantry unit.

In-Game Description

Rattan Vipers carry the common recurve bows often used by militiamen, but have special leave to use poisoned arrowheads, ensuring any enemy who does not die outright from his wounds suffers for a long time afterwards.

Acquisition

Rattan Vipers can be unlocked from the Rattan Army unit tree, where their node costs 7500 honour to unlock after prerequisites. Alternatively they can be unlocked using 20x Rattan Vipers Signaculum, but the relative rarity of signacula makes this option much less available.

Unit Traits

Trait	In-Game Description
▲ [Rattan Armour]	Rattan armour is cheap, lightweight, and resistant to slashing, but is vulnerable to incendiary weapons.
▲ [Poisoned Weapons]	The weapons of this unit are coated with a poisonous oil, which deals constant damage to enemies struck.

Formations

Formation	In-Game Description
Dispersed	A loose formation that reduces unit vulnerability to ranged weapons.
