TW3K Territorial Spearmen in-game

Territorial Spearmen charging

Put a spear in these men's hands and they will fight. Against all odds, for their homes, they will fight…

Some fight for their families and for their homes; others because it is all they have ever known. No matter the reason, when defending ones homeland, weapons will be fashioned from anything available and put to use with desperate intent. Bamboo, in all its abundance, is perfect for the warrior in need of a makeshift polearm. Strong yet flexible, bamboo takes much to break, yet when sharpened at one end has sufficient fortitude to pierce armour and flesh alike.
