Siphonarioi are a Golden era special ranged infantry unit.

In-Game Description

The Siphonarioi are the Empyrean sailors responsible aboard ship for operating the fire-projectors and hellfire catapults. For fighting on land they wield a hand-pressurised 'cheirosiphon' flamethrower, and wear full armour to protect themselves from the heat of their own weapons. Siphonarioi are widely dreaded for the weapons they carry, and since they are sworn to guard the secret of hellfire's composition with their lives, they are almost never taken prisoner.

Acquisition

Siphonarioi can be acquired via completing the Season V: Legacy of Fire unit challenges.

Unit Traits

▲ [Scorched Earth]	Hellfire can set light to the ground, forcing enemies to flee the area or catch fire themselves.
▲ [Firestorm]	This unit can set up a wall of flame by firing short blasts rapidly.
▲ [Fire-Resistant]	This unit's armour is less vulnerable to thermal weapons than other units of the same era.
