Actually i use them all the time as Germania. they are more useful than axemen imo as long as you use them correctly and keep them away from missles.

Amen, finally someone else who uses them! I use the Dacian kind though.:hmmm:
Excellent article ForlornHop3, top notch job.

It's just their morale is too weak. I actually consider as a miracle when they don't rout and hold a battle line in a battle against a rather stronger faction units.

Putting some Druids (Enchanting) behind them helps a bit though.
