In the game's words

How to use it

The Line Infantry is a ranged heavy infantry unit. It is available in the Fortress Age at the Trading Post to anyone who has allied with the House of Habsburg by building a Trading Post on one of their palaces. Line Infantry are functionally similar to Musketeers, but derive separate benefits – such as additional attack, range, or armor – depending on the stance that they utilize. Line Infantry can also ascend up to three levels of promotions by killing enemy units, each level raising their hit points and damage.

History

The House of Habsburg ruled much of Austria, Central Europe, and even occasionally Iberia and Mexico from the medieval period up through the 20th century. During the early-modern period, several tacticians – most notably Gustavus Adolphus – departed from the existing standards of engagement and innovated. The result was a system where tightly-packed lines of firearm-bearing troops fired a series of volleys at their adversaries. Although effective in an open field, they were not without weaknesses, and any sort of combat on rough or dense terrain or against irregular combatants put them at a disadvantage.
