In the game's words
How to use it
The Haudenosaunee Mantlet is an infantry unit with a big attack, a lot of hitpoints, decent range, and very good resistance to damage. Because the Mantlet can withstand enemy fire, they are good at attacking towers and other buildings. They do their damage at range and, as always, it is good to maintain this range whenever possible. Like all Native American warriors, the Haudenosaunee Mantlet does not take any population space, making them an excellent unit to train if you have reached the upper limits of your population. Tough and strong, they are an excellent unit to train, even if you haven't reached your population limit.
History
Because the Haudenosaunee often fortified their towns, they needed siege weapons when they went to war with rival towns. One technique they developed was the mantlet, similar in function to those used in Roman and medieval armies. Two warriors would carry the mantlet (essentially a moveable wooden wall) to protect themselves from enemy arrow or musket fire until they reached their enemy's town walls, where the mantlet was used as a ladder to scale the walls and breach the town. Canoes could also be used as shields and ladders, although canoes used for assaulting a fortress were not always the best paddling vessels after the fighting was over.
