Well trained and disciplined troops and used throughout the Byzantine Empire, these Lancers are well armoured and equipped.
Overview
Although generally fighting mounted, lancers can dismount when necessary. On foot, they fight as armoured swordsmen, and make effective infantry.
Details
While inferior to Dismounted Latinkon and Varangian Guard, Dismounted Byzantine Lancers are cheaper and are available earlier, meaning they are best suited for players with not as strong economy as that needed to support armies consisting of the aforementioned units. Dismounted Byzantine Lancers are decent units with adequate attack and defence stats. They can deal with most infantry except the most elite infantry, though will succumb quickly to heavy cavalry. While equal to Byzantine Infantry, Byzantine Dismounted Lancers do cost more to recruit and maintain.
