Bowyer (Troy)

Bowyers are multiple military building chains, in a Total War Saga: Troy, which can be built in capitals and resource settlements. These buildings unlock the recruitment of missile units.

Description[]

Although warfare in the Late Bronze Age was often conducted at close quarters, ranged units still played a key strategic role in the majority of battles. Skirmishers mingled with heavy infantry, raining slingshot and arrows upon the enemy line in order to break their resolve or soften them up for a charge. Light spears called javelins were also hurled from a distance before closing ranks. For archers and slingers, movement mattered more than protection; they were expected to carry out their attack, then withdraw from battle while armoured warriors gained all the glory in the ensuing melee.
