In the game's words
How to use it
The Royal Musketeer is a ranged heavy infantry unit. It is available in the Commerce Age at the Trading Post to anyone who has allied with the House of Bourbon by building a Trading Post on one of their palaces. Royal Musketeers carry muskets but can use a powerful charged pistol attack against enemy units, while in melee combat they will rely on a fast attack with a rapier and have a small bonus against cavalry.
History
The House of Bourbon ruled much of France and the surrounding regions from the medieval period up through the 19th century. Royal musketeers, made most famous by Alexandre Dumas’ ‘The Three Musketeers’, a depiction of 17th century musketeers, actually served as elite units for the king. In fact, several of the characters in the novel are based on historical figures. As the French Revolution dismantled the French monarchy, the musketeers went in and out of fashion, finally seeing their end at the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars.
