Tercio Arquebusiers are a golden era arquebusier ranged infantry unit.

In-Game Description

Tercio companies are the elite of the mercenary forces as every man is a swordsman first and an arquebusier second. They wear mail and plate armour, and carry a fearsome sword that would make even a landed knight green with envy. They are suited to assaulting enemy fortifications as they can pin the enemy with heavy fire, before charging in to fight them with their swords.

Acquisition

Tercio Arquebusiers can be unlocked from the ranged infantry unit tree, where their node costs 25,000 honour to unlock after prerequisites. This cost can be partially or fully defrayed using up to 20x Tercio Arquebusier's Signaculum.

▼ [Combat Penalty vs Heroes]	Ranged damage dealt to heroes by this unit reduced by 25%.
