In the game's words

How to use it

The Royal Arquebusier is a ranged infantry unit. It is available in the Commerce Age at the Trading Post to anyone who has allied with the House of Vasa by building a Trading Post on one of their palaces. Royal Arquebusiers are cost-efficient units that are more durable and adept in melee combat than normal Skirmishers, but less powerful at range.

History

The House of Vasa ruled Sweden and much of Poland during the 16th and 17th centuries. When engaged in the Thirty Years’ War (1618-48), Gustavus Adolphus assembled an army that he diligently trained himself, using innovative tactics to compete with the larger and better-equipped armies of his adversaries. The royal arquebusiers were one component of this combined arms force, and they helped engineer groundbreaking victories at battles such as Breitenfeld and River Lech.
